I just don't like the new version for the style of music. The old one had a nice, relaxed attitude that I could play in the background. The new one blares too much for my tastes.

Well, that's the problem with the old version. Johnny Silverhand music supposed to be able to rile up the entire crowds to go and fight on the streets, so the old version being relaxing background kinda misses the point. The new version definitely sounds more like a song I would go outside and starts smashing windows randomly in tune to it's melody. While I do like old version better, the new one is much more fitting.I just don't like the new version for the style of music.

If I were to buy the soundtrack, purely as a piece of Cyberpunk memorabilia to remind me of the world of CP77and Silverhand’s role, instead of just a piece of music that I can appreciate, then yes, definitely! I agree that the new version is much better.
Don’t let me take that away from you guys.
new version of Chippin' In kicks ass! Very in tune with the punk aesthetic. Old one was good but was too... Bland.
Keep up the good work, CDPR! If the other songs are like the new Chippin' In, I'm definitely getting the soundtrack.
Edit: Also, whats the song that plays when V gets out of the combat cab? It sounded great as well!

Alright alright I like the new song too but let's not say "keep the good work" when this thread is about including all music in the OST or at least uploading the old ones somewhere. This isn't new version vs old version.
The "old" Chippin' In could be repurposed as a modern day (2077) cover of Samurai's Chippin In.
Having Johnny Silverhand react and comment on it when it plays on the radio could be fun as well.
There are ofc more layers to a society than just the counter-culture, but that one was a bit under-represented, until now. So don't jump ship just yet
I didn't find the old version "relaxing". I find it fairly energetic, it pumped me up. It had a slow but scrappy lilt.Well, that's the problem with the old version.

Highly depents on what music you like I guess. I liked the old version after some time but I always felt it was too slow and boring for me as no matter what genre of music I listen to it's mostly faster paced.I didn't find the old version "relaxing".

This new version? It doesn't "pump me up", The vibe I get from it is that it just makes me want to lower the volume because someone is screaming inane things at a microphone in its angriest possible tone.
What about the electronic background music we hear during combat in the 2018 demo and also during the cinematic trailer and gameplay sneak peek of 2019? I absolutely fucking love them.Well we have heard only two songs out of the game, one of them is great and the other one sucks. The one that is great is being ditched. CDPR is going to have to do something to regain the goodwill here. Convince us that the game has actually good music.
EDIT: ok, three songs. Two of which suck. (counting the shitty hiphop whatever its called in the beginning of 2019 demo)
