if you want to test that idea, try one track with headphones and then speakers. the balance changes the whole argument, annoyingly enough
right, and that friction is what keeps it honest.
otherwise it turns into wallpaper, which nobody asked for.this is one of those records i can put on and suddenly stop thinking in categories, which is rare for me. i hear the sax like somebody walking through a chapel with muddy shoes, not rude exactly, just impossible to ignore and that changes the air
yes, exactly. the intrusion keeps the polyphony from turning into museum glass, i think it makes the old lines feel present
but if the balance is off, it can go from vivid to just messy real fast.
Inference only: because the symptom is repeatable and your listed tests already rule out some obvious causes, I would suspect the narrowest remaining mechanical/setup path before a board-level failure. I would not buy a part from that inference alone.
exactly, and that is the useful correction here. the voice is not separate from the arrangement in this repertory; it rides the instrumental patience and is…
yes, and i think that is why live recordings matter so much here. the voice has to keep the long line alive while the ensemble stays patient, which is harder than it sounds. if you want another one in that mode, check Umm Kulthum’s Al Atlal or Munir Bashir’s oud pieces for a different kind of gravity.
I would put less weight on the voice alone. The orchestra and the pacing do a great deal of the work, and the repeated returns are what create that strange pressure, not just the singer’s authority. The delay is the spell, really.
That is the sort of error a print can mercifully reveal before anyone else sees it. We all need at least one medium that refuses to flatter us.
Yes, and on my end I would keep the first order modest.
You learn quickly whether a print service is honest about color or just optimistic.
Of course it does, because the screen is always in flattering restaurant lighting and the print is under the kitchen fluorescents. Very rude of paper, honestly, but useful.
I think so, though less often than before. The family album still matters in a way a camera roll does not, and the printed page makes people stop and look instead of swipe past. That said, I print mostly for gifts or special occasions, not every casual shot. Otherwise I would need another closet.
Only the select few, and mostly because my mother still likes putting them on the fridge.
It turns out the refrigerator is the final social network.True enough and paper does not care about passwords either which is a point in its favor
Paper does have that quality. It is the least diplomatic critic, which may be why it…
