I listened to Public Enemy's Fear of A Black Planet for the first time in many years, and I was amazed to find it sounded completely different to how I remembered it sounding...

So much was this so, that I began to think the world had gone proper funny, or that my HiFi had got tired of it's replication role and had decided to pursue it's own creativity. (It's been a wierd day allround..)

Anyway, I was wondering if anything like this has ever happenned to anyone else...

Currently listening : Fear of a Black Planet By Public Enemy Release date: By 26 July, 1994

	: THE FUTUREPROOF MUSIC BLOG BY PIOUS GIOVANNI :	What about other records that don't make your playlist so often? Is there anything you've not listened to for a while and then listened to and thought: FUCK ME THAT SOUNDS ODD???

	stephen	as a purely scientific endeavour i today am listening to megadeth's 'rust in piece'. i am twice the age i was when i last listened to this and concur that it does sound different... tho it is, in my opinion, as a result of the years of listening experience that have changed me (the aural observer) thus leaving the original in the same state and placing the blame sqaurely on my old-man self. i hope this helps.

	: THE FUTUREPROOF MUSIC BLOG BY PIOUS GIOVANNI :	I'm gonna dig out Rust In Peace in a minute - I remeber that oen as sounding a little too technical.. I'm currently listening to Passion & Warfare by Steve Vai which was one of my favourite LPs of the time..

	Emily	Did it sound better or worse? Posted by Emily on September 25, 2007 - Tuesday at 2:03 AM [Remove] [Reply to this]

	: THE FUTUREPROOF MUSIC BLOG BY PIOUS GIOVANNI :	I would have to say worse. The tunes didn't sound right and the tracks seemed longer than I remembered them. I remember Side A gradually building and building into this spasm of energy at the end, but it seemed slow and lacking the urgency I remember it having...

	Paloma, First Lady of Infinity	this happens to me all the time. sometimes the other way around, sometimes things sound better. sometimes worse. i think is is both psychological and physiological. our heads change, our eardrums change.

	: THE FUTUREPROOF MUSIC BLOG BY PIOUS GIOVANNI :	Another possible explanation is I've got used to some of the remixes that were on 'Greatest Misses' and am thinking of them... I've noticed this kind of thing many times before but more in terms of liking or disliking.. With this it sounds completely different - I don't dislike it - it's just very different...

	Nonstop Everything	i assume we're ruling out all the times w/ the aid of drugs... Posted by Nonstop Everything on September 25, 2007 - Tuesday at 5:41 AM [Remove] [Reply to this]

	: THE FUTUREPROOF MUSIC BLOG BY PIOUS GIOVANNI :	Not necessarily. As far as I can remember, I've never found drugs have completely changed a record, though they have added warmth and density..

	simon	Sort of as I just put on Peps Blod Bands Antiligen cd and I was sure it was an album of Swedish blues and no it's actually an album of Swedish reggae which is far far weirder!! But time warps the memory and events change our perceptions and what music means to us! Posted by simon on September 25, 2007 - Tuesday at 7:54 PM [Remove] [Reply to this]
