If you are hearing long, held notes on top of music that otherwise
sounds OK, this is PianoDisc's deliberate attempt to make their music
unplayable on competitors' systems, introduced in 2005, known as "Silent
Drive Plus".

If you can barely recognize the song, it's probably the effect of the
minor format change I mentioned in a previous posting.
