One thing that I've never quite liked about the stereo version of Jagged Little Pill is the perceived 'dense center' on many songs. While there really isn't much compression, that dense center is typical of many stereo recordings, and I don't like the way they upmix to surround. Consequently, I prefer the acoustic version of this stereo album.

However with this Atmos mix, I find that they have done a really nice job spreading the guitars (and everything else) around the sound field thus making the album a more listenable surround sound experience. I'm very pleased with it.

All I can find about the people involved with the Atmos remix is that it is credited to Dolby Studios. I wonder who actually made the mix.

Highly recommended.

I turned off the lights yesterday, sat on my sofa and played this blu-ray in Atmos and I was really stunned. I felt like Alanis was standing in front of me.So crystal clear vocal coming out from the center speaker plus much more details can be heard than on stereo album. Highly recommended.

Great to have this in Atmos! I love listening to these songs again on my 4.1.4 system. You Learn and Ironic sound superb, I totally love it!!! The vocals and guitars sound marvelous on all songs, indeed very revealing. The drums and bass sometimes sound a little less powerful than I would have liked, a little overpowered by the vocals sometimes. I'm not ready to vote yet, but this is certainly a very exciting release!

Is this the same mix that has been streaming for a year +? No center speaker used?

 

[bieniu]

Center is heavily used on blu-ray

10. Excellent Atmos mix on one of the biggest albums of the 90s. Considering how bad many of the 90's era multichannel mixes are (STP, Metallica, etc), this is a breath of fresh air.

Hi! Were you able to buy this BLU RAY somewhere in Europe?

In 5.0

Well she really sounds Ironic , no really, it's quite good . I like the up volume this disc has. Also many great tunes from this Lass and Band. Double Diamond disc , they state.

Giving it a TEN as this was sooooo.. very deserving of a surround mix, thankfully it has now been done.

Only one little problem though...Right Through You ..stops at 50 secs in , and I can get it restarted ...but maybe I have to grab a second disc . All other tunes play ok.

Still a worthy disc,though.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FWIW
