Free Music Notes for The Princess and the Warrior

Free Music Review: Great Album! Flawed Pressing?
Hit: 5 Stars

I just wanted to throw in my own two cents on an issue a couple of other reviewers have brought up regarding this CD, yet in my opinion has not been addressed very carefully. This is concerning the reviews that talk about the sound of the CD having "noise" in it.

I am now on my second CD copy of "Princess and the Warrior," and both CDs have the same noise problems in them. I suppose there could always be the chance that I have received two copies of the CD from a certain batch of bad copies, but I wouldn't have any way of knowing that. These two copies were bought at different times, and different locations - but both being under the "Trauma" label that released it here in the U.S., and is being sold on this page.

First off, I have to say I really like this CD quite a lot - as well as the movie it comes from. I know the type of music it is influenced by, so the noise I'm talking about here is not the flavor that is intentionally in the music (like the vinyl records pops layered into the music of Massive Attack, Portishead, etc.), these are problematic digital glitches that once you recognize are there, make it hard to put out of your mind. Where I noticed it the most was in the instrumental portion of the album. The last track is where I heard it on my first listening. There are long sustained notes in this piece, and especially in the last moments, it actually sounds like a weird digital miss-reads - like the sound a CD makes when it's got a scrape and makes a strange tiny digital blip. The track is very beautiful, so to hear something like that (no matter how small) is incredibly frustrating! Listening to the entire CD the second time, I noticed that there is lots of problems throughout the album. Some obviously more noticeable than others.

I liked the album so much, that as I said before, I bought another copy thinking there was no way that a mistake that bad could actually be part of the digital file used for the CD. This new copy has the same problems in the same places though, so it's either a pressing problem, or a problem that is in the actual file used for this CDs master. I would have a really hard time believing that it was in the original recordings, because if anyone heard these problems there is no way it would have been okay - especially with the amount of effort it seems everyone has put into this project.

I noticed that there is an Import version of this album which is on the Universal Label. I would love to know if this version also has the same problems - but for the price, I don't want to take the chance to see if it's different.

I am keeping this CD even though the digital glitches bug me. I like the album enough, and maybe sometime I will be able to have a good copy - till then I don't have any other option.

I would love to hear from other people that have tuned into these problems with this CD (or not), I'm sort of surprised that with the amount of reviews, there is only a couple that have mentioned the sound problem ... which is also why I'm throwing it out there that there could be some weird possibility I got two bad copies. And by the way, I have played them on three separate players to see if it could just be a playback issue, but unfortunately this wasn't the case.
