astralprojection Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Im getting into records and I am trying to buy some stuff (but holy fuck is its expensive, you kidding me? 50 euro + for a freaking album? Looking at you Dancing Galaxy and Lone Deranger ) and just wanted to hear from people who do own alot of precious vinyl already; what your top 5s are. Like not just cause its vinyl, i can live without the noise and crackles. But the master is different for vinyl and sometimes even the artists themselves have vinyl in mind when mixing. And certainly the ME guy has it. So; with that said I think theres lots of vinyl out there that does sound alot better than CDs... In addition to the cozy warm alive natural crackly sound of vinyl just in general ofc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartzabel Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 To be honest I mostly buy modern vinyl as it sounds much better than any of the old stuff I still own. probably the best quality psy trance I own is the latest Captain Hook album that was pressed so well. It's expensive, but it's probably the best mastering & quality vinyl I own in my entire vinyl collection. Truly an eargasm. it made me feel bitterly disappointed in the lack of quality control at DAT & the Shpongle box sets. They look pretty but when my mate who only masters for vinyl ran them through his testing gear, he said I was well ripped off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyhoe Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 definitely the remastered Shpongle Sets. Also the releases from Mad Tribe. All releases from Ultimae Records, also Sidereal Records with Solar Fields, Hol Bauman.... the Captain Hook release looks and sound beautiful. the 3 x Vinyl Gatefold and artwork is awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staffan Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Hmmm... long time since I looked up the mastering guys. Well, Kevin Metcalfe is one name that I remember. He did some stuff for Blue Room, like Koxbox and Juno Reactor. Probably many more. I did just a quick look at discogs. Then we have Dave at the Townhouse and probably some other guys. Hallucinogen and Doof. Someone... was it Ott? Let's check. Oh Kevin Metcalfe mastered the Mir album. =)) Yeah, the noise and crackles souldn't be there. That is annoying. But I would go for the big labels releases. Like Blue Room, Dragonfly and Twisted. They knew what they where doing. =)) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iboga just announced the new Beat Bizarre album will get the same vinyl treatment but limited to 100 copies. Hope it lasts a few days so I can grab one!!

Hope it lasts a few days so I can grab one!! the funding started 2 days ago, its limited to 300, but somehow the samples do not convince me to spend 41€ on it. maybe i have to give it a try at another moment https://www.diggersfactory.com/vinyl/227547/beat-bizarre-perpetuum-mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
