Description

Rose Bowl, Pasadena, CA, USA 6th & 7th September 2025 ULTIMATE SOUND
Remaster & Matrix of 2 Audience Recordings on each day

Oasis’ reunion tour, “LIVE ’25,” continues to create a UK rock legend! With just 30 days until their Japan tour, the most anticipated performance of the North American tour, the historic Rose Bowl, attracting 180,000 people over those two days alone, has been released in a complete, 4-CD mega-recording of the highest quality audience recording! Unlike other labels’ pre-releases, this is a top-tier matrix sound source that completely eliminates any flaws in the original source material! Whether you’re preparing for their Japan tour or enjoying the best performances of their North American tour, these two days at the Rose Bowl are a must-have item! We’re bringing these two exquisite days right to your door!

The American leg of Oasis’ latest “LIVE ’25” tour was also successfully completed, generating explosive reactions. The midpoint of the tour saw the release of the phenomenal audience album “DEFINITIVE EAST RUTHERFORD 2025 1ST NIGHT,” which is still fresh in our minds. After East Rutherford on the East Coast, the tour headed to the final US performance, at the venerable Rose Bowl in Pasadena on the West Coast. This multi-purpose venue, with its distinctive bowl-shaped historic design, was completed in 1922. Its long history as a live music venue dates back to the early 1900s, when it was used by a plethora of huge artists, including Janis Joplin (Big Brother and the Holding Company), Journey, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Michael Jackson, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles, U2, Beyoncé, Coldplay, Taylor Swift, and many more. It literally symbolizes the pinnacle of the post-war pop world. And now, with the current powerhouse, Oasis, finally making an appearance here, it was no surprise that the 180,000 tickets were sold out, attracting overwhelming attention.

Naturally, this makes it easier to gather high-quality audience recordings. For each of the performances held here over two consecutive days, local enthusiasts have released high-quality audience recordings (including multiple sources!) on the Internet.
Of course, it’s at a level where it could be released as a limited press CD, but as I’ll explain later, the sound source was not without flaws. Just like the latest Oasis tour releases, the meticulous remastering and matrixing using the latest technology has taken the sound quality to the next level. It’s not just “good sound quality,” but a quality that can be enjoyed with confidence by beginners and enthusiasts alike.

On the first day, there were three different audience recording sources. The one selected as the main source was the highest quality sound source, recorded with the high-end Scheops MK4 microphone. However, there were issues with the tapered sound, where the recording level was adjusted after the live performance began, the roughness and thinness of the high frequencies, while the mid-range was well captured, and the wind noise and sound fluctuations caused by the outdoor venue. Therefore, by matrixing the second audience recording (also of high quality) and utilizing the latest AI technology, all of these issues were resolved!

And they’re also using another cutting-edge AI technology, which proved a great success at the previous East Rutherford concert. It automatically analyzed the mastering and equalization trends of the official live recordings from this tour, which are available on various subscription services, and reflected that information in meticulous remastering and matrixing. This resulted in a completely different sound quality and a powerful boost, completely eliminating the aforementioned issues. The result is a recording with sound quality that’s on another level.

The second day also mainly featured high-quality sound sources recorded with a Scheops MK4 microphone, but the overall sound image was still thin and lacking in depth, and there was also some sound wavering caused by securing positions immediately after the start of the live performance. To make matters worse, the sound image felt a bit distant. By matrixing another audience recording (also a high-quality source using a high-end DPA 4061 microphone) and utilizing the latest AI technology, all of these issues were resolved. The sound’s thickness and proximity to the sound image were dramatically improved. The results of the matrixing and remixing using the latest AI technology were even more evident in terms of quality improvement than on the previous day!

Also, unlike previous limited press CDs, this time “LIVE ’25” is the first two-performance coupling release! Of course, the quality is not inferior, so the number of discs is not being increased to make up for it! As mentioned earlier, the reason for coupling is that both days have been finished with superb sound quality that surpasses other labels, but more than that, the differences in the performances on both Rose Bowl days are really interesting!

From the very first day, you can feel the high energy of the band, even though it’s been more than two months since the tour began. Liam’s singing along to that accompaniment is also incredibly high-energy, and his performance of “Cigarettes & Alcohol” is undoubtedly the best of the day. His yelling of “Celestial, majestical, fuckin’ biblical!” during a break in the performance is awe-inspiring.

However, perhaps due to pushing himself too hard, Liam’s voice began to show signs of fatigue around “D’You Know What I Mean?”, and he sounded strained for the first time in a while on tracks like “Rock ‘n’ Roll Star.” Ironically, after maintaining his unprecedented peak performance for two months since the start of “LIVE ’25,” it felt like he was finally starting to tire.

However, when Liam returned after two Noel songs for the encore, he was back in top form, as expected of “LIVE ’25.” He didn’t smoke a cigarette while Noel was singing like he used to, and the final performance once again left an impression of Liam being in top form.

Additionally, Noel’s “Don’t Look Back In Anger” had a tremendous ending. It became a hot topic on social media, but there was a woman in the front row who was crying from sheer emotion the whole time, and Noel finally touched her heart by saying, “What’s your name? I can’t hear you very well, but I dedicate the next song to you. This girl has been crying nonstop all night.”

Day two followed. With the old Liam, back-to-back performances would have left him feeling fatigued from the previous day, but this was “LIVE ’25.” On day two, Liam showed no signs of fatigue like he did in the latter half of the previous day, and once again, he sang at his peak, a truly reliable performance. He’d already finished the first day with a bang, and it was moving to see him recover as if nothing had happened. And perhaps because he was in such great spirits, Liam was in even greater spirits than the day before, chanting “Los Angeles” over and over again. The highlight was before the final song, “Champagne Supernova,” when Liam expressed his gratitude for the success of the North American tour, a truly moving moment. Since the final leg of the North American tour was in Mexico, this was his final stop on the US mainland.

There’s a reason this is the first two-day coupling release. And both days have been reborn with the best sound quality! Enjoy the performance at this historic venue with the ultimate sound quality that surpasses even East Rutherford! A must-have and must-listen!
