Now Playing + What are you listening to?

Schwarzkopf Sings Pamina in Der Zauberflote, von Karajan - on the PC, from 78s in '53. Quite a bit of 78 rotational bad patch "distortion" at the beginning, but they haven't tried to fix it - which is a good thing! Nice sense of air, depth - crescendos not too bad ...
Quite interesting to hear how they didn't worry about removing all the extraneous noises back then, the technology just made such luxuries completely out of the question - constant noises of stands being knocked, or feet shifting, stage bits and pieces bumped - in the quiet moments there is quite a cacophany of such sounds !! 😉
 
David Bowie - Reality, on the PC ... good PRaT, if you're into that sort of thing, 🙂. These days one can have so much fun in the studio, playing with sound textures any which way one wants, building quite facinating musical structures - this is a good example of this ...
