Abstract Sound Recording’s Weblog

After the latest release of abstract LP02, 03 and 04 coming as a deluxe triple LP set including The End Of Time and Free Peace of Sky professionaly mastered for vynil by Dubplates and Mastering at Berlin, hope some digital downloads will come fully mastered by professional sound engineer and come in ultra high sound quality way beyond the myspace compressed sound, up to 224kbps in 48kHz and 2 Channel. Sorry for all those technical datas but here at bstract Sound we can, be only excited by the fact that it is possible that Interpol and Sonic Youth mastering enginneer will do the compact disc and digital audio download version of shortened project Time Peace (abstract CD10) by maybe (we hope tight) sterling Sound in NYC.

We beleive in the new generation of digitl audio frmat that comes with the internet and ytthe possibilitie to create 5.1 tracks for the internet, fully legally downladable (as Creative Commom licences provide for artist a great possibilities beyond the scope of publishing, collaborating and doing more than what the usual society of right gestion do, the malfunctionment of those big publisher is a shame and maybe that’s why people self release their works for having more money from their art and not being exploited or pressurised for success in recordings and pushing it far beyond, to be honest I really don’t know exactly how the society for right works, but one thing is for shure the artist don’t get quite nothing from it unless they are widely airplayed and broadcasted, personnaly we got zero and sure enough some bands aairplayed quite a lot don’t get directly payed as Kim G wrote just send directly the money to us, that’ what we are thinking in terms of self publishing to have the freedom to release anything then have a little interest in the production process of the records, deceiding every artistic guidelines and have a final p^roduct that meet expectations in quality of sound and a bit of professionalism but complete artistic freedom in terms of side timings, track lenght, number of track, the standard for abstract concrete songs are about more than 10 minutes by track, some lenght are here to set an athmosphere but are heardly playable live in maybe sleeping chairs or else it could be interesting to hit a puiblic but people who listen to hardcore happen to listen to something else in the same time, but in term of live show when I played more relaxed music, people were almost offended to expect something near hardcore noise and find this special ambient music, some have difficulties with the sound.

In retrospect what is interesting now with internet is that we hit really an audience, some days have 44 visitors and the download of full track is around 84 and keeps going right up, that’s a tal success in term of communication of our spound recording and that’s good that website takes our video files or sound files and help us broadcast trhe music throught podcast, streaming audio and that’ s really a good way of finding an audience hhich happen to be sometimes very interested and then send me lovable e mails descripting how the song induced sleep or rellaxation and for me this was a huge hit, really incredible how people could meet the sound, or the audienc eacidentaly meet the sound recording and find it interesting, otherwise living in a rral area, having a internet connection is a must and also a good way of finding new broadband audience worldwide and when the remix came by I was amazed like , it is possible that someone ion this planet remix our sound without specially knowing us in a any way and we will release this song from Porch Cat on the further compilation, about abstract news and the multi download
