Pass:digital

I can do recordings to be transfered in digital source

the most rare original pressings,are hard-to-find albums than often sound far superior to any reissues.Instead to pay an audio engineer,new labels use a quick mastering process than loose dynamics and destructive audio,to save money.

I have submitted masters to record labels and released digitizations with quite good dynamics.

If you have a piece of vintage audio that you would like digitized,please contact me.

These are several audio formats,compressed and uncompressed,from the same song taken from this lp reissue,A1.”Flashback”.

Massive world industry of Bootleg vinyl labels nowadays

Posted on 3 Novembre, 20203 Novembre, 2020 by rpiserra@gmail.com

Bootleg record labels,like Radioactive,Audioclarity,Magic Box…..

With the growth in the sale of vinyl,new record labels have re-emerged in the record market.

The genre of psychedelic and underground music from the 60´s and 70´s,made thousands of albums than many collectors, dealers and distributors liked to do the reissues so much .

Most bands don´t know where the mastertapes are after 50 years or very often they have recorded an album, made 50 or 100 testpressings to get attention from label and radiostations,but the record doesn´t get enough demant,so the producer or the studios lost the master tapes,and nowadays only are available those test pressings and original lps,than could get high collector value in the second hand market,and are the only music source to made a reissue lp.

1.Manufacturing a new vinyl

Audio source is sent to an audio enginer than does a lathe disc,with a manual

cutting machine.The vinyl factory will made the new vinyls,using this lathe disc,on a

pressing vinyl plant. In fact,the vinyl factory have a pre-mastering department,than also does the lathe cut disc.

Them,after printing a new cover and packing,the new vinyl release,is ready to sell in 100 to 500 units,limited quantities.

2.Rights licenses

Paying a copyright and licensing,allows the record label get the master to release a new reissue lp.

All the people involving on the production of the record (artist,song writers,record label),receive a percentage of royalties payment.

3.Unofficial record labels

An unofficial or bootleg record label, are those who don´t pay licensing rights.

Firstly,musicians and relates,don´t get any money for their record.

Secondly,as this bootleg label doesn´t get the original master tape,or a test pressing,in both,used as a master, a cd cut tape or a bad vinyl rip,source.

That means,a bootleg lp doesn´t have the Trademark of Quality.

Bad master tape and not pre-mastering for vinyl,photocopied and pixeled covers artwork,bad labels

print,thin sleeve,and cheapest vinyl pressing(not centered label,warped,noisy,and without matrix numbers detail).

There are two kinds of unofficial records,a ”Counterfeit” tries to replicate the original,

and the second fake,is the ”bootleg” due to the different sleeve packaging.

List of bootleg of psychedelic rock lps,releases

4.Conclusion

Personally,I should wait a few years for a legal pressing better than purchase a bootleg lp.

I see problems on both sides,the official record labels which are not interested to reissue the album,and doesn´t want to sell licenses,and bootlegs labels than if they paid licenses,do a good reissue lp with TDQ standards quality,them,doesn´t get enough benefits.

Record shops and websites,must named on the description of the lp,than the record for sale is unofficial,even the best thing is to block for sale.

Kaleidoscope-Tangerine dream 50 th anniversary

Posted on 6 Octubre, 20205 Novembre, 2020 by rpiserra@gmail.com

The Britain´s favourite “lost” band,when somebody ask me two stunning psychedelic albums,I always named Kaleidoscope first albums,”Tangerine Dream” and “Faintly Blowing”.
Lead singer,Peter Daltrey played his first shows in 40 years,last 2012 for a short tour of California.
Peter played the gig with the Trembling Bells…US,band.
Kaleidoscope gig 2013,features Rob Bartholomew Campanella (Brian Jonestown Massacre, Quarter After) on Bass; Cheryl Caddick (Silver Phial) on drums; Nick Castro (Young Elders, Poison Tree) on mellotron and rhythm guitar; Christof Certik (Young Elders, Winter Flowers) on lead guitar.

Peter Daltrey-“The Sky Children”

SONG …… “Sky Children”

“A million white flowers in a field in the sky
Seemed to spell out a greeting as the children flew by
A guard in a chariot of silver and gold
Gave the children all tickets, then the story he told
Of a time in the future that was sunshine and flowers
And the children grew sleepy in the sky’s white towers
They dreamed of the story that the guard had displayed
They saw all the wonders, tiny minds were amazed
They saw candy forests and dragons that breathed fire
On all that was evil in the misty mire

They came to the village where the turtles in caves
Made pies for the people and the lemonade
The people lived out by the sea and each day
The seagulls would wake them as they passed on their way
The people were kindly, they would sing to the sky
And each bright new morning, the sun shone from their eyes
The children passed over and all the people could see
As they dived from the sky to the treacle sea
They bathed on the white sand, minutes turned into hours
And the children all giggled and gave each other flowers

The King from his castle came down to the sea
And he spoke to the children so patiently
He gave them small presents and bid them farewell
And the children unwrapped them, tiny silver bells
Their tinkling floated across the island with ease
And it came back toward them on the perfume breeze
They smiled at the tinkling, they gazed at the sun
And they smiled at each other, pretty little ones
A beautiful white horse came down to the sea
And the children all climbed up as he knelt on one knee

They rode through the valleys and high over hills
And they laughed oh so loudly, their fear to kill
They came to a lakeside of deep velvet and green
And they all stared in wonder at its beauty serene
They climbed from the white horse, they watch as it goes
As they stood by the green lake for to kiss their toes
A boat in the distance was suddenly there
Waiting to take the children to anywhere
The porcupine captain said that he didn’t mind
In his coat of black needles, he looked very kind

His crew were six rabbits with fluffy white ears
And the children all stroked them and lost all their fears
They sailed through the sunshine, across the green lake
And they drank lemonade and they ate ice-cream cake
They landed in a dark cave as the boat disappeared
And they all stood in darkness, through the shadows they peered
But out of the blackness shone diamonds so bright
Their tiny white hands shielded eyes from the light
In a pool of quicksilver stood Neptune so wise
And pearls were his white teeth, bright diamonds his eyes

He spoke to the children in a voice of velvet
And he beckoned them to him, in a circle they sat
He told of sky island and of his magic cave
And magic pink seashells to the children he gave
They listened intently as the music came far
From the magic pink seashells and nobody talked
But Neptune had vanished when they lifted their eyes
So they walked from the cave as two kingfishers cried
In the bright shiny sunlight, they got down on one knee
They listened to the sea shells of the magical sea

But the day grew much darker, so they climbed on the breeze
And they floated to the village, and the people were pleased
To see them so happy with their tinkling bells
And the people all listened to the musical shells
But the children were so sad, the time had come to leave
So the people waved goodbye and begged them to believe
Of the wonders they had seen in the island of the sky
And the children said they would and away they did fly
Through the white clouds of no time till forever it seems
And the children stayed children and they lived in their dreams”

Tuxedomoon-Live at Festival Internacional,Teatro Villa(Madrid)

Posted on 1 Octubre, 20203 Octubre, 2020 by rpiserra@gmail.com

Recuerdo que era un lunes por la noche después de clase,estudiaba Relaciónes Publicas en la Uni,un curso que me sirvió de poco,excepto para viajar hasta la Patagonia,visitar al Papa en una recepción,o ir al Ayuntamiento de Cadiz,invitado por la comisión de turismo y protocolo.

Estaba encerrado en mi cuarto y puse el programa diario Pop del gran Ordovás,sonaba el tema de Derribos Arias-“A Flúor”,era una emisora friki en época post-franquista,un programa musical de punk e independientes,cuando anunció un concierto para el próximo fin de semana en Madrid,los Tuxedomoon.

Enseguida llamé por teléfono a dos amigos invitandoles a ir al concierto,Carlos tuvo un arresto de fin de semana por llegar un dia tarde,porque estaba haciendo la mili.
Al dia siguiente,me puse la chupa de cuero negra de motorista Inglés,cogí mi bolsa de discos,y fuí a comprarme un LP a discos Castelló de la calle Tallers,Tuxedomoon-“Holy wars”.Estaba tan excitado que puse rápido el lp en mi tocadiscos,”Some guys”,”In a manner of speaking”,”Bonjour tristesse”…. esa melancolía,tristeza,angustia, depresión,era una música que llamó mi atención,fantástico LP.

El “viaje”,en tren de Barcelona a Madrid,duró 8 horas y escuché no se cuantas veces un cassette del “Metamatic” de John Fox con un walkman portátil.Llegamos justo a tiempo antes que empezara el concierto,era un pequeño teatro con asientos muy moderno “El Villa de Madrid”.No había demasiado público en el concierto,claro que es un grupo de New Wave y Avantgarde,lejos de otros grupos de punk rock, Buzzcocks,Stranglers, Magazine,Joy Division,Wire que eran más potentes con grandes discos y muchos más seguidores.

Aquí teneis la discografía completa de Tuxedomoon,recomiendo los LPS, “Half Mute”,”Holy Wars”,y los primeros maxis que son muy difíciles de encontrar.
El grupo actuó los 3 dias seguidos,fue un concierto histórico.Vimos el viernes,sábado y domingo a los Tuxedomoon.Por suerte,pude documentar el concierto ya que los grabé en directo con un cassette Aiwa stereo.Después de digitalizar la grabación,(volumen,normalizar,dither,ajustar canales….),subí a este post,el concierto integro del primer dia.
