Releasing This Week
On Friday, 6 November, Bandcamp will not take their cut out of sales on the platform. It’s a great gesture to support musicians and they have done this several times already. I am planning on having a few releases ready for this occasion. In addition to another remix of Dance 4 Me, by Canton Becker, I will release several remastered albums. The rereleases will make lossless versions of some albums available for the first time.
In the Arms of Love was first released in 2002. Unless you made your own files from the CD you only had the choice of listening to mp3s or the Apple equivalent. I remastered the album and will upload FLAC files at CD quality – 16/44.1kHz. I will also add three bonus tracks, which are different versions and remixes that haven’t been heard before. (more about some of those in another post)
La Semana will likewise be released in CD quality FLAC files. I think the remaster makes the guitar a little more beautiful and the whole sound a little more transparent.
The same goes for Winter Rose.
The Scent of Light was also remastered and, like the other two albums, will be released in CD quality FLAC files. Note – you don’t have to download the bigger FLAC files, you can choose to download lots of other file formats from Bandcamp.
Dune was remastered as well and will be available in the high definition 24/88.2kHz format.
Up Close wasn’t remastered but will be available in high definition 24/96 as well.
Here is a list:
In the Arms of Love (Remastered) – 16/44.1
La Semana (Remastered) – 16/44.1
Winter Rose (Remastered) – 16/44.1
The Scent of Light (Remastered) – 16/44.1
Up Close – 24/96
Dune (Remastered) – 24/88.2
More info as we get closer to Friday.
