metal beat Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Nitin Sawhney – Prophesy - spun at 33 instead of 45 - changes the vocals to a man and brings in a sort of dub beat to the music. try it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hired goon Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Introversion - For They Know Not What They Do -- a short album of shimmering waves of sound. Some of the tracks seem to be end a bit too soon for my liking, but worth a listen late at night. €1 for the lossless download from Bandcamp. --Geoff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentorange2 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Tim Hecker pushing the boundaries again with an oldie but a goodie - Harmony in Ultraviolet.

hired goon Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 (edited) The Green Kingdom - Expanses / Remixes - the original Expanses album plus remixes from the likes of Hotel Neon, Warmth, Roel Funcken, etc. The original album was described by the artist as "my homage to classic ambient and ambient techno albums of the past, albeit passed through the filter of dusty samples from old vinyl and classical records, the odd guitar melody, electronics and some soft rhythmic pulses", if yer wondering how it sounds.

ThirdDrawerDown Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 Quote Reflection, Brian Eno Which do you prefer, playing at 33 or 45rpm? (I'm doing 33 more often than 45) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janjuggler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Hi @ThirdDrawerDown I love to spin at 78rpm but the LP is set at 45pm. JJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdDrawerDown Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 {For those who came in late, there's a cohort of enophiles who speculate that Reflections was intended for both 45rpm and 33rpm. https://www.discogs.com/Brian-Eno-Reflection/release/9548284 Kind of like Swastika Girls / Heavenly Music Corporation but planned.] https://burningshed.com/frippeno_nopussyfooting_2cd Quote The Expansions: When first played on Radio One on John Peel's show, the album was taken from a reel to reel tape that had been stored 'tail out' (standard record company practice), but played as if it had been stored 'front out' (standard BBC practice) - the resulting broadcast was of the entire album played in reverse. Both Fripp and Eno (in separate locations) heard some of the broadcast. When Eno phoned the BBC to inform them that the music was being played in reverse, he was met with a "that's what they all say.." response. As this was how many people in the UK initially heard the album, the reverse version has been recreated for this release. It was commonplace for young guitarists used the 16 and 2/3 setting on record players to play 33 and 1/3 rpm vinyl albums to slow down, practice and learn favoured guitar parts. King Crimson biographer Sid Smith mentioned that he and his friends applied the same principle to No Pussyfooting simply to hear how different it would sound and how impressed they were with the result. The half speed version of The Heavenly Music Corporation is featured as the other main expansion on the new edition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
