Welcome to another Super Deluxe Edition unboxing video! Today, we’re delving into ABC’s “The Lexicon of Love” in Blu-ray audio format, the 12th installment in the ongoing SD surround series.
The release comes in the standard Super Deluxe Edition packaging, featuring a special slipcase and the Blu-ray disc nestled within. The back of the packaging showcases the album’s 1982 tracklist and the various mixes included: Dolby Atmos, 5.1, stereo remix, instrumental stereo remix, and the original 1982 stereo mix. All mixes, except the original, have been expertly remixed by the legendary Stephen Wilson, promising an exceptional listening experience.
Inside, you’ll find a booklet that complements the audio content. It includes original notes from the album’s initial release, new insights from Martin Fry on the Atmos remix, and Stephen Wilson’s own commentary on the remixing process. The track listing and reissue credits are also provided.
The Blu-ray audio disc boasts high-resolution audio (96 kHz / 24-bit) for all mixes, ensuring an immersive and detailed listening experience. The Dolby Atmos mix is particularly noteworthy, offering a captivating and spacious soundscape that brings the album to life in a whole new way.
In addition to the Blu-ray audio disc, the Super Deluxe Edition also includes a half speed mastered vinyl edition and a 4LP edition that includes the Blu-ray. However, the Blu-ray included in the 4LP edition features the added bonus of music videos, while the exclusive Blu-ray audio disc lacks the original 1982 stereo mix in 96 kHz / 24-bit.
