What is the latest music you downloaded, what resolution and from where?

Posted by: Stevee_S on 13 January 2014

With more music being downloaded I thought it might be interesting to see what forum members are buying and from where.

The news that HD Tracks are soon to open an online UK store means that more choice is going to be available to us. The variety and quality of downloadable music we can choose from is expanding, MP3 to 24bit studio Masters at 192kHz and beyond.

So what are you buying and downloading?

Although the full album is not released until 1st June by pre-ordering I have been able to download track one of four now.

This is now available to download fully... so I have.

Initial listen of the full EP at work and I have to say I'm disappointed. I'm hoping a more serious session later on this evening will improve things.

Sadly I have to agree Steve. I am very disappointed with this one, I tried to get into it again last night but its not doing anything for me at all.

3 or 4 listens now and it HAS got better. The first couple of tracks aren't THAT bad; not a patch on EE1/2 though. Sorry to say I'm still struggling with the other half of the EP. I'm starting to change album now once it gets to track 3. The problem with that is I'll probably stop playing it altogether.

Jacco Gardner - Hypnophobia

Late 60s British Psych Pop as done in 2015 by a Belgian. It's very good, though on first couple of listens not quite as good as his first - Cabinet Of Curiosities (but I'm judging by the highest of standards here - it was brilliant).
