Larry Boden and Acoustic Sounds present “Basic Disc Mastering [2nd Edition]: A Compendium of Industy Documents Relating to the Science of Disc Recording” | Music News
The first edition of Basic Disc Mastering from engineering extraordinaire Larry Boden was released in 1981 by the Full Sail Recording Workshop and was a very useful tool for a thorough detail on the process of recording and cutting an album. This new version will of course bridge the last 30+ years of time that has separated both editions. This one should be a vital tool for all engineers and is massive from the description given. Over 500 pages that weighs over 3 pounds full of music mastering knowledge that will surely find many good homes in this world. Full details from Acoustic Sounds below.

Acoustic Sounds is proud to offer a most remarkable book about one of the most critical tasks in creating a music album — record mastering. “Basic Disc Mastering” has been written and compiled by Larry Boden, a noted expert in the field. The content varies from very simple to rather complex. Topics include not only the science of disc cutting but also vinyl record plating and pressing, styli design, and many others. It also contains a healthy section of manufacturers information from the “golden age” of disc cutting. The book itself has been published with industry professionals in mind, but offers a unique view of the technology that serious vinyl lovers should find interesting. This is a large volume, weighing in at more than three pounds and 500 pages and has been printed on acid free paper.

Color in Motion Volume 189: Hiroko Kono “About Memories”. What’s fascinating is that when you try and get a closer look at the bookshelf you quickly realize that all the detail vanishes and your left looking at just scraps of wood.The artist also incorporates furniture and shelves from abandoned schools, which she travels to and picks out herself. http://www.art-kouba.com/kono/

Porter Records was born in 2005 out of a love for crate digging in the basements of record shops. Porter’s founder, Luke Mosling, has a talent for finding the obscure, beautiful and strange recordings that may have previously gone unheard by a larger audience. This talent started the reissue portion of the Porter Records catalog.
When doing reissues, Porter works hard at creating strong relationships with the original artists or their estates. This allows Porter to respect not only the original vision of the artist and their recordings, but also to respect the vision the artist has for the future. Porter’s goal is to make these reissues more widely known and recognized as important pieces of art within their respected genres.
Porter Records is more than a reissue label. Porter has over 40 releases by modern composers and performers that bring something special to the current day music tapestry. Each release is like a hidden jewel providing its own unique color and brilliance. Porter Records is very proud to have such talented artists and a diverse catalog of genres in a time when the music industry is pumping out replica after replica.
