Because you demanded it: Madrugda Eterna (Club mix) Ripped from Eternity 23 boot and not the legendary (times 20 maybe) Eterna 1. Simon has heard the version from Eterna 1 and says the sound quality is much superior, but this is the only 12" of this rarity I could find. Going through my files this morning, I discovered that I ripped this thing an amazing 11 times on a Saturday night last Feb. Two things were going through my mind: 1. I really love this new computer preamp I just purchased 2. God, this record sounds like shit So I was doing a bit of research on the interwebs and many audiophiles believe that vinyl is very durable, so durable in fact that you can truly clean the hell out it and often improve the audio quality; some record enthusiasts actually clean their records in the kitchen sink with dish soap believe it or not. So I basically would rip this record, clean it with my Discwasher system, rip it again, clean it again, etc. as an experiment. Here are two different rips: rip 2 (as I can't find rip 1, must have deleted it) and rip 11 both in WAV format. I must have recorded this at the exact right level as Audacity doesn't think it needs any amplification, but I did run both rips through the excellent Chris's compressor plugin to give it a more modern sound. Once again, I have the original, unaltered rips so if anyone would prefer these, or prefer a different format please let me know and I will provide :-) My question to you guys is: after listening to both rips, did I damage the recording with so many cleanings, improve the sound quality, or is there no difference? Truth be told I don't know why I thought this recording was so awful at the time because listening to the rips today it sounds pretty darn good for a second-hand bootleg record. Here you are: http://www.mediafire.com/?mjoaxod72bo7073 I was planning on sharing a different record today, but so many people wanted this I made it a priority. May still share that other record time allowing. BTW, I still need to relate the tale of my Love Trance 12" as promised, will try to squeeze that in today as well!
