Loreena McKinnet Remasters


Just picked up one of her new remasters (The Visit) and compared it to the original release. I don't know what to think. There's definitely a difference but I'm not sure iif it's an improvement. The remaster has more detail, a little more air on top but also seems slightly edgy and strident with more pronounced sibilants. I think I might prefer the original, smoother and more satisfying (sounds like a beer commercial). Anxious to hear others opinions on the newly available remasters. Doing a reality check on my system and my hearing.

It is the same DVD with each remaster. These are limited editions after which the remixes will replace the originals without the bonus DVD. If you want the remixes but not the DVD you'll have to wait a bit. As I mentioned in my initial post I'm not impressed with the remasters. There are some improvements BUT the smoothness of the original has been replaced with glare and edginess.
