In recent years, the ultra-high-quality multi-Tracks sound source of the newly outflow, the same creator as the first work eyes was carefully mix, it is the sequel to the ultimate of the original sound source collection. Certainty of its contents, the same class at all have with that first work.

Sound quality in the official and not inferior perfect level, guitar that make up the that classic, bass, drums, and you can enjoy the vocal for each of the separate parts. In each of the final official take, painful part is to listen and got buried in the flood of sound, until each of the delicate part, can take hear clearly and “This is what was playing doing this!”, if the fan, a number of music that has been familiar for decades, now, you can touch with again fresh feel. In between songs it has entered clearly also real voice and the count of the album accrued, especially for the first time listen to the fans, (if that way if!

Exactly freshness preeminent Bohemian Rhapsody of the multi-track terrific at which start out as a kaleidoscope of sound, the splendor, really does not have any other words. Please listen anyway. More than 30 years ago it was certainly there, one of the ultimate meet again in the sound space, such as a dream. In front of the contents of so and so, learn a sense of gratitude to the presence of this sound, the miracle of the track collection. The limited release determined by the two sets of press CD.

★ is a review summary of beatleg magazine vol.139 (February 2013). In case you’re wondering.

In “Multitracks Mixes (Wardour-089),” the second installment following the (journal see vol.135), but that of the sound source collection of the same author has carefully mix with the first series all. I just songs that have seen the light of day in the boot leg as a multi-track sound sources other than the “I Want It All”, but is slightly different flavor from those of the past. For example, “Killer Queen (Vocal)” and although vocal track that is credit is mixed also backing chorus to the lead vocals of Freddie, “Killer Queen Multitrack Master (MTR-003)” (this magazine vol.104 article reference) and “Multitracks Sampler (-)” (vocal tracks in the journal reference vol.119) and “Killer Queen (vocal Only)” are credit is a vocal track Freddie alone, will be apparent to both the difference is Miidaseru. What this “Killer Queen (Vocal)” What stage of the thing of or are not sure, that by the creator of the hand of this work perhaps, that mixes the backing chorus track to vocal track Freddie alone such not might. “Multitracks: Tenement Funster (-)” (this magazine vol.136 see) in the “Vocals # 1”, “Vocals # 2” and although the tracks that have been credit is a track of only vocal, where “Tenement Funster (Drums, Vocal) “the track that has been credit have been mix vocals and drums, if I were devised, such as if Roger is playing alone is subjected. When it comes to the “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “Piano,” “Piano, Bass,” “Piano, Drums” have devised such as to increase the thickness is applied to the sound as the track progresses, to this flow is a masterpiece, Freddie piano beauty to reaffirm and of and dexterity is also ideal. The course of the mix aside, thanks to the mix, such as described above, any of the tracks also independently has finished in the ornamental might say that feature. Of course, a press machine that has been recorded in outstanding sound quality that all does not change in any way with the official. In addition, the first delivery worth marked with CD-R, which was recorded over the 8-track, 24 minutes total the original multi-track collection of “Do not Stop Me Now”.

先日、リリースされ、大好評を頂いている「MULTITRACKS MIXES」の第二弾が登場です。近年、新たに流出した超高品質のマルチトラックス音源を、第1作目と同じ製作者が念入りにミックスした、究極のオリジナル音源集の続編です。その内容の確かさは、あの1作目と全くもって同クラス。今回はディスク1にBrighton Rock、Get Down, Make Love、I Want It All、Killer Queen、One Vision、Tenement Funsterの6曲のオリジナル・ミックスを22トラック78分収録。ディスク2には今回のマルチトラック集を代表するトラックであるBohemian Rhapsodyのミックスを9トラック、50分収録しています。完成度と楽しさは、あの第1作目以上であり、録音年代もバラバラなトラックが妙な統一感を感じさながらスピーカーいっぱいに迸る様は凄まじいばかりで、ファンは至福の時を体感できること間違いありません。音質はオフィシャルと遜色ない完璧なレベルで、あの名曲を構成するギター、ベース、ドラム、そしてボーカルをそれぞれの独立したパーツ毎に楽しむことができます。それぞれがファイナルの公式テイクでは、音の洪水に埋もれてしまって聴きとり辛い部分も、それぞれの細やかな部分まで、「ここはこうやって弾いていたのか!」とはっきりと聴き取ることができ、ファンならば、数十年に渡って親しんできた楽曲の数々に、今、改めて新鮮な感触で触れることができます。曲間ではアルバム未収の肉声やカウントもはっきり入っており、特に初めて聴くファンは、(もしその方がディープなファンなら!)腰を抜かさんばかりに驚かれ、感動すること間違いありません。第1作目と同じ表現になってしまいますが、「死ぬ前にこれを聴けて良かった」と、感涙の思いで聴き入ってしまう方もいらっしゃるかと思います。(本当にそれだけのテイクです!)こういったスタジオのアウトテイクやディフミックスは「一回聴いておしまい」というのが多いのですが、この作品は第1作目同様に、何度も何十回も、オフィシャル盤同様に繰り返し楽しめる完成度を誇っています。これは製作者のセンス、知識、テクニックに負うところが大であり、その高度な作業ぶりには、頭の下がる思いです。また、ここまで曲をネイキッドかつバラしても、その魅力が損なわれることのないのがクィーンの楽曲の凄さであり、ファンは改めて、他に比較するものが無いと思える、唯一無二のオリジナルな魅力を誇るクィーンの名曲の魅力に大いに感動することでしょう。本当に、全曲、全トラックが全ての聴き所と言っても過言では無い内容です。「1作目も良かったけど、この2作目は更に良い」と言う人も多いと思われます。前作のボーナスディスクに収録されていたOne Vision、そして先日リリースされたThe Crossのライブ盤(「ROCK CITY 1988」)のボーナスディスクに収録されていたTenement Funsterはかなり粗めのダイレクトな音サンプルでしたが、本盤に収録されているテイクは、それとは違い、素晴らしい完成度が楽しめる高品質なマルチトラックス・ミックスになっています。まさに音の万華鏡の如く飛び出してくる鮮度抜群のBohemian Rhapsodyのマルチトラックの凄まじさ、素晴らしさには、本当にもう言葉もありません。とにかく聴いてみて下さい。30年以上前に確かに存在していた、夢のような音空間に再び出会える究極の1枚。内容云々の前に、この音の存在に感謝の念を覚える、奇跡のトラック集。限定2枚組プレスCDでリリース決定です。

★beatleg誌 vol.139(2013年2月号)のレビュー要約です。ご参考まで。

『Multitracks Mixes (Wardour-089)』(本誌vol.135参照)に続く第2弾で、全て第1弾と同じ製作者が念入りにミックスした音源集とのことだ。「I Want It All」以外はマルチトラック音源としてブートレッグでも日の目を見ている曲ばかりだが、これまでのものとは多少趣が異なっている。例えば、「Killer Queen (Vocal)」とクレジットされているヴォーカル・トラックはフレディのリード・ヴォーカルにバック・コーラスもミックスされているが、『Killer Queen Multitrack Master (MTR-003)』(本誌vol.104記事参照)や『Multitracks Sampler (-)』(本誌vol.119参照)で「Killer Queen (Vocal Only)」とクレジットされているヴォーカル・トラックはフレディ単独のヴォーカル・トラックであり、両者には明らかな違いが見い出せる。この「Killer Queen (Vocal)」がどのような段階のものなのかは定かでないが、もしかすると本作の製作者の手により、フレディ単独のヴォーカル・トラックにバック・コーラス・トラックをミックスさせたものなのかもしれない。『Multitracks : Tenement Funster (-)』(本誌vol.136参照)で「Vocals #1」「Vocals #2」とクレジットされているトラックはヴォーカルだけのトラックだが、ここで「Tenement Funster (Drums, Vocal)」とクレジットされているトラックはヴォーカルとドラムがミックスされていて、まるでロジャーがひとりで演奏しているかのような工夫が施されている。「Bohemian Rhapsody」に至っては「Piano」「Piano, Bass」「Piano, Drums」とトラックが進むにつれて音に厚みが増すような工夫が施されていて、この流れは圧巻だし、フレディのピアノの美しさや巧みさを再確認するにも最適である。ミックスの過程はともかくとして、上記のようなミックスのおかげで、どのトラックも独立して観賞用に仕上がっているのが特長と言えるかもしれない。勿論、全てがオフィシャルと何ら変わらない抜群の音質で収録されたプレス盤である。更に、初回納入分には「Don’t Stop Me Now」のオリジナル・マルチトラック集を8トラック、トータル24分にわたって収録したCD-Rが付いている。
