Just a little education for those “audiophiles” - albums honestly pale in quality to straight digital. You think you like the scratchs and skips - bah bullocks. My movie producer neighbor and I laugh about his love for the look over sound quality. He being in the movie/sound industry for 35 years and me being a musician for near 45. Albums feel good and look good. They do not sound better and it is not subjective.



By "album" you mean "record" or "vinyl", right?
An "album" is a collection of songs or music tracks, put together as one named collection.  The medium used to distribute said album can be on a physical record made with vinyl, on a physical tape (in the past), on in a digital file which contains a collection of multiple songs.

I agree completely!  Early digital was not as good as the current iterations, but it blew away  cassette tapes. Current digital technology has evolved to greatness.  Aside from skips & scratches, records have wow & flutter, tangiental tracking error & Feedback. The 1st track on a side has better frequency response than the last track. Records need to be mastered differently than digital. All low end below 300hz needs to be mono (equal on left & right channels), to prevent the stylus from jumping out of the groove. Also, digital has greater dynamic range (the difference between loud & soft passages).   Some people prefer the sound of records, but I DON'T!  Some people love the sound of tube audio, but I don't, except for guitar amplifiers.   To each their own!

Posford does release vinyl with some of his endeavours, so worth having a look from time to time.  https://shponglemusic.bandcamp...

Less bizarre than some other Shphongle. More digestible. Less jarring. Maybe that's good, maybe not.

Quirky, and squeaky, and wibbly, and well weird. 8 from the Shpongled Nottingham jury.

Back when I first heard them I thought they were a silly psychedelic samply novelty.

Always nice to be wrong. Wrong like a Gong. The more you know the more you know you don't know what you know.

You mean, like "Trump?" As in 'to trump'....... from the 15th Century, which is to fart. Onomatopoeia - no lie.

Very interesting track. Definitely a pick me up. I'm really starting to enjoy these trance pieces and moments where the mood and rhythm change slowly, and effect a change in the listeners mood. If we allow it to, just like listening to a good orator.

I kinda like what I hear from these guys. They are not into brevity, but this and Divine Moments of Truth are pretty interesting from time to time.

My thoughts exactly. Why do so few performers understand the concept of "always leave them wanting more?"

Posted 18 years ago by Platypus    [ Reply ]
Now, I WAS working and not really listening...had the sound down really low. But I kept looking at the bar to see who the artist is and what the song is, because I kept thinking it was the "Dr. Who Theme"
Posted 18 years ago by crink51    [ Reply ]
I think it's mostly difficult to pull-off cross-genre, quasi world beat, club stuff...but this track does it with some real style. High marks to this effort...good pacing and innovative use of blips and loops.....
