Last night the Music took over….


I woke up this morning a little hungover, not from wine but from the lingering spell of last night’s listening session. Nicki Parrott’s voice was still in my head, smoky and rich, wrapped in the warmth of Black Coffee album on vinyl.

You may or may not be a fan of hers, and that’s okay because this post isn’t just about singing praises for her impeccable storytelling. It’s about those moments we all chase… the ones when your system disappears, and the music breathes with such life and intimacy, it feels like the artist is right there with you.

Last night, my system was at its absolute peak. Everything clicked. The performance was spellbinding, her tone so warm, her phrasing so present, it made me pause and ask myself:

Have I finally reached the point where I can stop tweaking… and just enjoy the music?

So I’m curious…have you had one of those nights where the gear disappears, and the music just becomes the room?

What was playing? 

I’d love to hear about those moments that made you forget the tweaks, the specs, and the chase… and just feel!

2 nights ago, I tested a new WT-95 again. More I make WT-95s, my technique gets better (easier) and WT-95 sounds get better each time. Test is done by recording. The sound is more transparent than before and sound-stage was deeper.

Usually, I record 1 hours max starting 1AM. This new WT-95 sounded so good and more I listen, my brain became clearer that I recorded longer (more music) and stayed until 4am in pure musicality and musicians in my room. I wanted to stay more but I went to bed, I had to wake up 6am in the morning. Cheers, Alex/Wavetouch

@mihorn  --  It is the worst kind of reproduction of “Jill’s Theme” 

Every one has different ears. It’s better to others. All "Jill’s Theme" YT videos are less than 1M views, except Steffi’s is 39M views. I think she and team did a great job. Please post a link for better "Jiils Theme".

If you only heard MY VIDEO, watch the original Once Upon a Time in the West. Steffi Vertriest .
