The band Queen announced the premiere of the special edition of their debut album “Queen I”. The publishing house will be released on June 13 on the Audiophile Blu-ray medium and will contain a new version of the iconic album created in Dolby Atmos technology. This is not only a remaster – it is a completely rearranged version of the album, prepared for the immersion, three -dimensional sound experience.
Brian May emphasized that the goal of the project was to give the recordings the spatiality, which the band dreamed of in the 70s. “This is a completely new version of our first album created from scratch. Each instrument was reconstructed to achieve a vivid, depth full of depth” – said the musician.
The legendary Queen album in the new setting
Brian May and Roger Taylor are responsible for executive production, and the team of regular collaborators Queen – Justin Shirley -Smith, Joshua J Macrae and Kris Fredrisson. The Dolby Atmos version was also co -created by Lewis Jones from Abbey Road Studios.
The album will be released by Sony Music in the USA and the Universal Music Group in other countries. The whole will be completed by a 12-page booklet with additional materials for collectors and fans.
Queen – Return to the sources of rock power
Originally released in 1973, the album “Queen I” was the beginning of the great career of the British group. It is from this album that songs such as “Keep Yourself Alive”, “Liar” or “My Fairy King” – compositions that combined rock energy with symphonic scale and artistic courage come.
On the album you can hear Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon at the time of the birth of a style, who later took over the scenes of the whole world. The new version allows you to experience these recordings again – with full details, dynamics and depth, which was not before.
