bmoura Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 The first release in DSD from Magnetic Fidelity in Europe. Debut album from Naxatras, transferred from Analog to Stereo DSD 64 and DSD 128.

tailspn Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 How would you describe the music and the mastering quality of this album? For the music quality and type, have a listen to the mp3 sample clips and check out the booklet. For the mastering quality, Jesus of Magnetic Fidelity offered the following notes: The material of FWRL Records generally varies in quality. Some of the recordings were monophonic for aesthetic reasons due to artist preference, some due to technical reasons. Most are stereophonic though. The material has been recorded to tape over a span of 15 years, and my equipment and available spaces have greatly improved since the beginning. So, for FWRL Records the incentive of offering DSD files is not because the recording quality is that exceptional, but rather to be able to at least capture the sound of the master tapes as closely as possible in a digital format.

bmoura Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 For the music quality and type, have a listen to the mp3 sample clips and check out the booklet. Agreed. It's described as trippy, hard psychedelic rock on the download page - and in the review from MoreFuzz.Net (linked below) https://magneticfidelity.nativedsd.com/albums/NXTRS01-naxatras-lp Naxatras Review | More Fuzz !
