RECYCLING THROUGH RE-MASTERING

project Almeida Club 1998

Just before christmas I happily had the possibility to remaster some takes digitally. First of all I got up the output level, and besides that the dynamics appeared better. I heard directly that details and intensions in my own playing is more "visible".

This is the Latinpot ...Originally recorded in june 1998, the last takes on the same day, which gave mig big headache. This is a low-budget miracle, the backgrounds (during the live recording session on usual cassette-tape!) work surprisingly well after digital re-mastering (dec. 2007).

arrangements

About these two particular projects, for me; it was worth it then, but even more today.
