Hopefully that’s one of the benefits of this remix!” Again, that positive tidal wave of technology just might have provided too many digital opportunities to overwhelm the band feel. It was also nice to have an opportunity to enhance some of Rick’s work. Momentary Lapse had been recorded under considerable stress and time constraints, and indeed some of the final mixing was done at the same time as rehearsals for the forthcoming tour. I enjoyed re-recording drum tracks with unlimited studio time. There’s little doubt of the advantages in being able to find new elements within the music, or more often uncovering elements that became overwhelmed with all that new science…I think there is an element of taking the album back in time and taking the opportunity to create a slightly more open sound – utilising some of the things we had learned from playing so much of the album live over two massive tours. Inevitably the opportunity to revisit earlier work from a period where digital technology was the brave new world became increasingly interesting. “Initially it seemed a bit odd to start re-assembling a record after 35 odd years, but the public’s appetite for alternate views of the same work has undoubtedly increased immeasurably over time. I knew that we were on a good roll and that this thing was going to work.” They just flowed out from nowhere in one of those great serendipitous moments that you recognize later as having been very valuable…. One day, I felt this ‘thing’ coming on me that became Sorrow. We started working on pieces of music that I had been writing and, come Christmas, we knew it was going well. I learnt a lot from Bob and he’s a valuable person to have on board. We also looked for and found some previously unused keyboard parts of Rick’s which helped us to come up with a new vibe, a new feeling for the album”.ĭavid reflects on originally recording the album: “Bob Ezrin had worked on ‘The Wall’ with us back in ’79 and on some solo albums with me. This was something we thought it would benefit from.
Pink floyd a momentary lapse of reason update#
“Some years after we had recorded the album, we came to the conclusion that we should update it to make it more timeless, featuring more of the traditional instruments that we liked and that we were more used to playing. By returning to some of Richard Wright’s original keyboard takes, and by re-recording new drum tracks with Nick Mason, producers David Gilmour and Bob Ezrin have restored a better creative balance between the three Pink Floyd members. The release of ‘The Later Years’ project in 2019 gave an opportunity for a fresh overview of the ‘ A Momentary Lapse Of Reason’ album, originally released in 1987. ‘A Momentary Lapse Of Reason’ will also be released in Dolby Audio and UHD in addition to 360 Reality Audio, all of which will continue with other Pink Floyd releases. In addition, for the first time, the album will be presented in 360 Reality Audio, a new immersive music experience that closely mimics the omni-directional soundscape of live musical performance for the listener using Sony’s object-based 360 Spatial Sound technologies. Remixed and updated from the original 1987 master tapes for ‘The Later Years’ by Andy Jackson with David Gilmour, assisted by Damon Iddins, the album will be available on Vinyl, CD, DVD, Blu-ray and digitally with Stereo and 5.1 mixes. Sony Music announced today that Pink Floyd’s ‘A Momentary Lapse Of Reason – Remixed & Updated’, will be released on Friday, October 29, 2021.
