Mala working on Cuban album...

[dubstepper]

Only played this on vinyl, probly a silly question but will the mp3 sounds as good as the vinyl?, coz to be honest i've never compared mp3 release to vinyl before

[Sonika]

Vinyl just sounds slightly deeper and warmer, not quite as harsh on the ears as digital

[Sonika]

Oh and where do I find the link where I can use my digital download code to get the mp3s?

If your digital sounds harsh to your ears you've got a shitty setup.

No it doesnt

just going off what I saw in a that bassweight dubstep documentary, in a club, the guys like "with digital everytime that a hi hat hits, it feels like an icepick in your eardrums"

I don't mind digital, although it is true that vinyl sounds nice and warm

He talked about how people didn't have it mastered so when it was played it a club it never sounded right. I bet most of it is placebo, if i gave you a WAV & a vinyl i doubt you would notice straight away.

It was the first thing I saw when I opened the box set.

I could at least notice because of the little crackles and stuff, I've compared a digital file and a vinyl sound and I can definitely hear a difference in my KRKs

[didi]

The sheet of paper gives you the website. it's like vinyl.brownswoodlp.com or something.

there's a URL on the wee card with the code on it

[Sonika]

Anybody want to dig it out? No worries if you're too lazy though, I get it

[Phigure]

my singular complaint is just that the bass seems to be mixed/mastered really loudly. probably because this release wasnt intended as strictly club music, but still.

Why is that a complaint? That was one of my favourite things about it, I can listen to it at lower volumes and still feel the weight

because at medium to higher volumes, the low end is overwhelmingly loud. i know, we all like bass, but there is such a thing as just too much of it (relative to the other frequencies)

[Sonika]

I don't really find that it's drowning anything else out...

[Phigure]

maybe it's a tad exaggerated, but the bass is louder than about any other record in my collection.

it's not to the point that it's unlistenable, i mean it's still a really nice and pleasant sounding album. just something that definitely caught my ear.

I thought the same thing when i burned a copy to listen to in the car. Way too loud. The later tracks on the album seem to chill out a bit, but the first half or more is just mixed waaay too bass heavy. I rarely need to adjust my sub level in my car, with this i have to turn it down to literally one click above "off". Maybe a good choice for playing out on weaker systems (bass compensation), bad choice for overall album quality.

But apart from that, yes I think this albums pretty great music-wise.

Mine finally arrived.
