01) ISO image created using sacd-ripper for PS3

02) Edited Master Dff file extracted using SACD_Extract

03) Edited Master Dff file analysed using foobar + foo_input_sacd and DR Meter plugins to find peak track(s)

07) Final pass PCM file split into individual tracks (discarding first 41 samples) using track lengths calculated from cue file generated by SACD_Extract

08) Spikes at beginning of first/end of last tracks eliminated by deleting 24 samples and replacing with the adjacent 24 samples using SoX to give the correct track length

The first thing that hits you when you listen to this record is the extensive use of samples and drum rhythms one would expect in a dance record. This album is clearly a cross over between Jazz and Dance. Which is fine since it was done really well.
The music can be a bit too much in your face at times, and I have been in the situation before were I decided to put it on but regretted it as soon as the first track began. Other times I love this record and tend to turn up the volume so far that I sure my neighbours aren’t happy that I’m living next to them.

I’ve gotten both albums which were release by Gerard Presencer on SACD and I must admit I prefer this one. sa-cd.net
