[Melodic Electronica] - New album release: "Economic Winter"

Post by shuutobi » Fri Aug 01, 2014 2:08 am

Hey all!

I just released my new 6 track mini-album on Bandcamp in 24bit/96kHz DR9 w/ bonus content...
CD quality versions on iTunes, etc. will hopefully be released sometime in the next day. [August 1st]

If you like it, have a favorite track, or have any questions... Let me know!


Sparkly, magical sounds from planet Earth...
"Economic Winter"

Written, produced, and mixed 100% in Ableton Live 9 by Me.
Mastered by Christopher Leary at Melograf Mastering
Cover Artwork by Ellinoora Emilia Laine

Notes:
  • The six main tracks are mastered by Christopher Leary at Melograf Mastering
  • Bonus tracks available on Bandcamp are mastered by me, but they are not pre-mastered. (They are mix versions)
    The "Bus Comp Version" is intended to give the listener the "What the artist heard while mixing" perspective,
    while the "Raw Mix version" is just the mix without EQ or Dynamics plugins on the stereo mix bus. (For the purists)
  • The average dynamic range is DR9, not counting bonus material; the tracks range from a minimum of DR9 to a maximum of DR10.
  • Special care was taken to ensure the program material was not hyper-compressed.
  • It's also worth noting that there is 1dB of peak headroom to minimize the possibility of clipping for lossy encodes.

Really enjoyed listening to this. Especially Softkill and Behaviour Placement. :D

Do people really want raw mix and comp bus versions? Just seems a bit over techy for your average listener. :?

The majority does not care it seems.
They just buy the 16bit/44.1kHz iTunes version for convenience.

I still liked the idea of releasing a "What I heard" version when mixing.
The raw mix is a tad unnecessary, as it's really nothing I heard when I was mixing.

However, some people like to remaster things for exercise, so I figured why not.

I suppose if there is a need, however small then as you say "why not".

Keep it up. :D
