Hi Fi Plus Awards issue 22 page 34.
An audiophile label with a difference, delivering 180g pressings of quality contemporary pop recordings. Founder John Richards cut his teeth with Diverse Vinyl, suppliers of all things black, round and twelve inches across. It gave him a unique insight into the market, and more importantly, the gaps left by the traditional audiophile/re-issue merchants. People loved the quality but they were left cold by much of the repertoire. How about superior pressings of some of their current favourites? That's exactly the goal of these records. Superb artwork and a performance led catalogue combined with top quality cuttings makes for musically rewarding listening. You might not be able to hear the second saxophonist adjusting his cod-piece, but that's not what these discs are about. Great music delivered just as well as the recordings allow - I'll take that every time. Roy Gregory. |
