Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

ordered it a week ago, hopefully here this week. There's a lot of good stuff on that label lately, really liked Nuel too (thx Evad for that).

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

The release date on the further records website is 20th february, i ordered it back january but it was announced before that so i have the feeling it's been ages but i guess not,i'm quite eager to hear it really, i just hope the sound quality will be better than the last record i ordered from them (vagon brei's destiny, they should have given us flac from the master as a compensation...)

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

yeah,the problem of my album is that was the first on vinyl with 55 min? 50 min or something is a lot for a vinyl i think

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

So it was a pre-order thing or what? That explains it. I hate that pre-ordering bullshit...

This time you could choose for a black vinyl too, which I did so I guess the quality will be ok.
Vagon Brei's second pressing was a lot better, found it recently in the local shop

Yes Victor kindly offered mp3's but i was waiting for something from further records really.
Back on topic, got an email as well that the record has been shipped  smile

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

why even put this kind of music on vinyl in the first place, to be honest? I really don't think that ambient stuff is suited to vinyl.

I'm just buying it cause I love Ian's work.

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

well that depends, if it's the industrial kind of ambient, I prefer having it on vinyl, it has a rougher edge. And another reason is the lenght of the album, this one only contains 6 tracks which makes it a "mini album" and then I rather have it on vinyl. It's a waste to manufacture a CD of only 35 minutes imho.

Re: Ian Martin - Mechanical Rain / Further 043

Thanks all for the nice comments!

The test-pressings sound very good. A broad and crisp audio spectrum. Don't worry about the quality, it's good.

Patiently waiting for my copies to arrive smile
