In November 2021, we shared the news that Roger Waters was back in the studio working on some new projects. In a recent interview, Roger confirmed that he has been working on a new re-recording of Pink Floyd’s 1973 classic album The Dark Side Of The Moon, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with a brand new Dolby Atmos mix and box set release.
The interview states that “the new concept is meant to reflect on the meaning of the work, to bring out the heart and soul of the album,” he says, “both musically and spiritually.” “I’m the only one singing my songs on these new recordings, and there are no rock and roll guitar solos.” The spoken words, superimposed on instrumental pieces like “On the Run” or “The Great Gig in the Sky,” and over “Speak to Me,” “Brain Damage,” “Any Color You Like,” and “Money,” are meant to clarify his “mantra,” the message he considers central to all his work.
Further to this, Roger has recently become known for reworking his material from his time in Pink Floyd into new arrangements, the most recent of which was Comfortably Numb, which was featured on his Lockdown Sessions album.
The idea that the spoken words featured on the original album release are being emphasised in this new recording suggests that it could be in a similar vein to the 2013 Darkside radio play that was featured on BBC Radio 2 on August 26, 2013, the year of the album’s 40th anniversary.
