    ... and I would like to add that this voice of HAL 9000 can be heard in the song "Perfect Sense p. II". However, in "The Bravery Being Out Of Range" guitar solos were added, concealed in the original mix. The number of backing vocals was also reduced and the audience noises were removed.

      ... I had no comparison with the JAPAN 24k GOLD SBM CD

        This is the so-called "2015 remaster" is not exactly the same album that was released in 1992. Some fragments, instrument positions, voices, effects have been changed with some new features. While remixing the album WATERS made his dream come true and added the voice of the dying HAL9000 [2001:A Space Odyssey] to the background. The sound of the Japanese Remaster 2015 on Blu-spec CD2 sounds smooth and fluid, contains more details than the older version of "1992", more smooth, you could say analog.
        We all hear exactly the same thing, but we value different things in different ways ... so choose yours.
