Turn The Tide :Eclipse in disguise

Well just sorted out the latest track for TCP.Turn The Tide... this was written ages ago ( well 2 years ago)
I have a great version of me howling it when I wrote it.I called it Floyd Eclipse for ages,I think the mix is called that on my Mac.
Its always great to hear Tina sing it properly.You never know if its going to work as a song till that point.
I like the over all vocal sound, a huge reverb. Still not sure if the mix is finished, added some compressed guitars in the 2nd verse...they may or not stay.
I also used my OLD Roland S202 on it...its the same synth that Oldfield uses on all his early work including the Blue Peter theme....no sure if its a great sound or if I like it cos of all the tunes Ive heard it on.
I bought the synth when I last went through my "tonight Mathew Im gonna be Mike Oldfield"....this usually means I will go out and buy something that the master uses.....
So here I am ...dug out all my old vinyl and currently listening to a scratched version of Oldfield "Platinum" from 1979...BUT it sounds soooooo good...like an old friend...With all the technology advances..we still have 16bit CD or worse Mp3..ARGHH!!!!!!!
So for the moment Im still convinced...

Just finished a promo video for somebody who we have just signed to our White Knight Records.... this guy who Im still keeping under wraps is bloody awesome.... he sent me his Cd and I almost started posting all my gear for sale on EBAY...!!!!!!!

Vinyl : What a treat !!!!

Well I just bought a turntable.....!!!!
A good friend of mine, told me recently about a "moment" he had when he bought turntable, and played
ELO "Out Of The Blue".....he was gobsmacked !!!
So I to had this experience last week...and it just blew me away...
The sound !!! was amazing...so much DYNAMIC and depth.....
So being a gadget freak....I had to get one.....
I also have a lot of new vinyl that I have bought as part of special editions (new YES and OLDFIELD re issues)...
I am listening to Fly From Here... perhaps not the best sonic example, but ....
what a bizarre ritual...
Pulling out the LP ...the weight... the cover !!!!!..inner sleeve...
Then placing the disc, lifting the arm..... the disc revolving and judging the beginning of the disc,brining the stylus down, the click as it touches, and the little flutters...then its in !!!!....a completely different sound... ITS like meeting a old friend...the bottom end..NO COMPRESSION !!!!  arhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

So here we go again... re-buying all the records on vinyl..the ones we binned to buy on CD,>>>!!!!!
