Hi QQ family!
This project is moving right along. FLAC downloads have done pretty well at surroundmusic.one and quadraphonic tape sales have done well too, via mlrocker's ebay store, so that has enabled me to move ahead with a CD/Blu-ray set!
This thing is pretty loaded too. I've tried to capture the spirit of the Steven Wilson remix albums, like Fragile by Yes. A CD with the album and extras and a Blu-ray with extras too. I don't have nearly the history or status that Yes have, but I mean I really tried to pack a lot of content on these discs.
The CD contains the album, 2 remixes and 3 live tracks.
The Blu-ray contains the album, 4 remixes and 3 live tracks. The album and remixes are in LPCM stereo, 4.0, 4.1 & 5.1, while the live tracks are only in LPCM stereo.
3 different surround formats of the same mix might be a first? We were just thinking of those with pure quad setups, as well as those with subs, but who don't like the center used for music, along with those who are running 5.1, of course.
There are also a couple of Easter eggs to be discovered...
The CD and Blu-ray masters are on the way to the manufacturer as I type this. Soon I'll be able to test the first copy. Then I'll be able to place the first order.
To help me get an idea of how many copies to order, I decided a pre-release is called for!
You can find the pre-order here on bandcamp.
You can find a thread about the album here. See post #8 for a very kind review!
I am so very grateful for all the support my QQ family has shown me. Again, I'm not trying to quit my day job and I'm willing to take some risk to see this album become a physical reality. I'd love for it to sell out and be able to give a little money to charity. In the end, if this album ends up in the hands and ears of those who wanted to hear it I'll be happy. In so many ways this album was a long-shot! I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to quite a few of you! I'm so excited that its ultimate fruition is close.
A giant thank you is owed to Jan Printz from surroundmusic.one for doing the blu-ray authoring! I think he did a great job.
