Thriller 40th Anniversary

Due to how absurdly high the zoom is on your Audacity, i can't really tell if the waveform is the same as the previous version that was on Apple, which i'd like to repeat, was literally just the Thriller 1988 Remaster, which was loud, but not brickwalled.
I just checked the original files Apple had a few months, weeks, whatever, ago, and i can say, this is indeed not the 1988 remaster... gawdamn i'm pretty surprised this isn't nearly as bad as T25 lol
 
Guys the billie jean 4k is a couple of posts above mine, pay attention! I think it is slightly blurry and the sound is off
Thanks. I won't waste my time on it then. Will wait for the official release :)

Absurdly high? lol. I didn't zoom anything. I expanded the window for it to fit so I can see it better.

Billie Jean on Thriller 25 for comparison.

It does clip, but it looks better than T25, that's for sure!

Bad news everybody, it turns out we've been, tricked, played, maybe even bamboozled.
Turns out, the mastering on Apple for Thriller 40 DID get replaced to a new one, however, the mastering that is now being used on Apple for Thriller 40 is just the 2014 CD remaster, with the only difference being that on Apple it's like, half a DB or so louder.
Of course, what this means is that this is most likely a placeholder mastering, just like the 1988 remaster that was used previously, and it will be replaced with the 2022 remaster once the album comes out.
 
Beat It 4K looks bloody incredible. It's like watching the video for the very first time. Now I am desperately waiting for them to update Thriller and Billie Jean to 4K on youtube.
There's so much to discover. A cigarette in the ashtray or Bill Bray as a bar tender.
 
i wonder why there isnt a leak of thriller 40 til today. strange.
Maybe it's the impact of LN. Warehouse & logistics worker might think MJ's a pedo and therefor don't care about his releases anymore. Just a thought, though.
 
Even today's Wikipedia knows better than the Estate about how to promote Thriller 40 lol

With MJ fans literally roving the entire earth for new MJ content, any promotion they'd make would pretty much instantaneously be consumed. The leaking is practically unstoppable.
