Can't wait to hear the edited version of Carousel again. Maybe they can turn it into a duet with Post Malone.

In my opinion the design isn't that bad. i just hope that we are getting new stuff. not the same old stuff from previously releases. the only thing i don't like is that they not telling us.
yeah i know it's a surprise but still it's still a waste of money if we are getting the same stuff.
in my opinion i wouldn't go with it until other fans and people get it. this is how i do things.
also keep in mind some stuff has already been leaked.
what they need to do to just release everything online only collectors are gonna buy this.
in my opinion Xscape and Bad25 were awesome. if we are getting the samething like those two then i'm happy and excited. hurray for new MJ item. they are finally listening to us.
let's see what happens in November.
also i hope this make up that april fool joke they pull last month. i hope....

I'm not really instantly excited about the audiophile element of it. Going back to original masters is all well and good but means nothing if you just compress the hell out of it later.

I believe Mofi are the only editions mentioning use of analog masters and they do not compress anything. They have a reputation for amazing releases. They'd use a fully analog chain for their vinyl. I'd assume the standard vinyl and CD are compressed and from digital masters.

To date, post death releases have contained very little songs written by other artists so this could be a huge factor here. Of the Thriller session tunes, the following were either completed or recorded in demo form:
Trouble/She's Trouble Hot Street/Slapstick Nite Line Got The Hots Behind The Mask Starlight
Hopefully all of the above will be included. Of the demos, we have at least 1 demo leaked of every song bar TLIML with Beat It in the most primitive form. For Bad 25 they only went with songs MJ wrote I believe?
I do not want to see one fucking duet with The Weeknd or Dua Lipa or Bucks Fizz on there.

Kinda sucks that the apparent audiophile versions include no bonus tracks. Like, what's the logic there?

Real embarrassing.
Sometimes I have the feeling the Estate operates with one or two employees in a small office and those secretaries have to do all the work, even they type of work that's not their professional area just because the Estate is stingy and wants to save money. And that's how we end up with amateurish stuff like this. Or if they paid to some professional for this they need to demand their money back because then they've been scammed.

i can care less about the design to be honest. i'm glad we are hopefully getting some new. i mean at the end of the day why are hoping for? new unrelease remaster stuff or a design?
yeah i'm pretty much sure we all hoping for new unrelease remaster stuff.
i feel sometimes this fandom care about useless things then the important things.
i mean they can give me a paper bag with new unrelease remaster stuff and i'll still be happy. some people in this fandom are ungreatful.....

Artwork is pretty important. Especially when it comes to changing iconic artwork. This is not something I'd consider "useless". Also, there will be a lot of "bitching" in this thread. A lot. And it will be both beautiful and ugly. Embrace it.

Not the 'ungrateful' card again. Firstly, the design is an important part of the overall package. For the biggest selling album of all time, you'd expect a classy redesign, not something someone threw together in MS Paint on their lunch break. It looks ridiculous and is insulting. Secondly, it's not like the content the past 12 years has been great, has it? Fake songs, awful remixes, a hologram of an impersonator, dreadful low quality mixes. What makes you think it will be any different now?

I don’t know. It’s what we have and it’s not going to change at this point. I’ve stated before my feelings about how things are handled but I don’t want to get caught up in the negative feelings anymore. I share the opinions of others here but I’ll probably pick it up if the second disc contains a few new tracks. It is what it is.
