Vinyl Surfaces - EX 

Audio Test - EX. 

• Listened to in full on budget deck and Audio Technica Studio headphones. 
• Gaps between tracks/very quiet parts of songs have some audible light background noise - but this album packs the songs so tightly the gaps are about 1/2 to 1 second. Once the songs start these cannot be heard unless on a really quiet part or on the fade-outs. 
• Overall the songs sound bright and clear and can be enjoyed without any major background noise. 
• The original Analogue Mix also sounds fantastic, with great definition. Beats even the original masters of the CD version for feeling 'real' :) 
• For those with a genuine interest in buying, I can provide audio samples of the album so you can hear the quality of the surfaces and playback for yourself. These are recorded on a basic MP3 turntable so are not audiophile quality but do give a great indication of what to expect from the record, which takes the uncertainty out of buying. Please get in touch if you are serious about buying the album :)  

Visual Inspection/Bright Light: EX 

• Graded under the same VERY bright spotlights used to take the pictures of the record
