As of today, this specific DTS mix has never been officially reissued on Blu-ray or streaming. The stereo version dominates Apple Music and Tidal. However, resourceful listeners can still find used copies of the DVD. Ripping the DTS audio track to a lossless file (like .dts or converting to FLAC) allows for playback on modern media servers.
In the landscape of early 2000s audiophilia, few releases were as anticipated—or as sonically demanding—as Peter Gabriel’s Up . After a decade-long gestation period marked by obsessive tinkering, divorce, and technological exploration, the album finally arrived in September 2002. It was immediately recognized as Gabriel’s darkest, densest, and most texturally complex work. But for those with the right system, the definitive experience wasn’t the stereo CD. It arrived two years later, in 2004, when Gabriel’s Real World Records unleashed the DTS 5.1 Digital Surround version of Up . Peter Gabriel - UP -2002- -2004- DTS 5.1 Digital Surround-
Unequivocally, yes .
Up is an album about age, loss, technology, and the ghosts of the past. A standard stereo system presents these themes as a dense, sometimes impenetrable wall of sound. The DTS 5.1 mix unlocks the album. It separates the organic from the mechanical, the earthly from the ethereal, the front from the back. When the final piano chord of “Signal to Noise” decays into the rear speakers, you understand that Up was never just an album—it was an environment. And the 2004 DTS 5.1 Digital Surround release is the key to that environment’s front door. As of today, this specific DTS mix has
This wasn’t a gimmicky remix for surround sound; it was a home-audio translation of Gabriel’s original creative vision, which had been mixed in surround from the very beginning. To understand the 2004 DTS release, one must understand that Up was not a stereo album adapted to surround, but a surround album folded down to stereo. Gabriel and his longtime engineer, Richard Chappell, worked extensively in 5.1 during the album’s protracted recording sessions at Real World Studios. Tracks like “Darkness” and “Sky Blue” were built with discrete channels in mind, using the additional speakers to create immersive soundscapes, place unsettling effects in the rear, or isolate specific instrumental voices. Ripping the DTS audio track to a lossless file (like
