The Estate of Michael Jackson continues to bring new life to the legendary artist’s iconic works. Following the recent release of “Rock With You” as an upscaled video, the Estate has now turned its attention to “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough,” the electrifying lead single from Michael Jackson’s groundbreaking Off The Wall album.
This visual upgrade coincides with the release of Off The Wall on Audiophile Vinyl and SACD, aligning with the Estate’s ongoing efforts to preserve and enhance Michael Jackson’s artistry for future generations. While the newly updated video isn’t a true 4K remaster due to limitations in the original source material, the Estate has confirmed it represents a significant improvement in quality.
Balancing Technology and Originality
According to the Estate, both Sony and their team rigorously tested multiple upscaling technologies before deciding on the best approach to deliver a cleaner and more refined visual experience. Though full 4K resolution was unattainable, this upgraded version of “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” promises to offer fans a fresh way to enjoy one of Jackson’s most celebrated music videos.
While this may not meet the full expectations of fans hoping for true 4K quality, it is undeniably a step up from previous versions. The improvements in color, clarity, and overall sharpness ensure that the video feels more vibrant and polished, even if it falls short of modern ultra-high-definition standards.
What’s Next?
With “Rock With You” and “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” both receiving upgraded treatments, the next video set for enhancement is “She’s Out of My Life” as this is the only video left from that period. Fans can expect the same dedication to quality as the Estate works to preserve the timeless visuals of Off The Wall.
Michael Jackson’s legacy as a visionary artist remains unmatched, and the Estate’s commitment to revitalising his catalog ensures that his genius continues to resonate in the modern era. Whether it’s through updated videos, pristine audio releases, or other projects, Michael’s work remains a touchstone of creativity and innovation.
Stay tuned for more updates as the Estate continues to unveil these refreshed classics, bringing a renewed energy to the King of Pop’s unforgettable artistry.
The worst and cheapest upgrade ever.
