new High-Rez Labels i.e.Sound Liaison

Posted by IanU (A) on June 16, 2013 at 08:10:48

I just posted more or less the same words as an answer to a question on SACD versus downloads and that inspired me to post this new topic.
Since I started using my PC as my main player I hardly play my sacd;s any more.
There is so much more great sounding music for sale in this way.
And my new reference music now definitely includes the music from the new Sound Liaison label.
I believe it was on the Naim forum I saw a member describe the music as´´like buying milk from a farmer,straight non pasteurized´´
Sound Liaison are selling their own recordings,and is all done in house,recording,mixing,and even selling the music.
the files are one to one copies of the Studio Master straight from the desk,and you can listen to the music before you buy which I find a big plus.
I have got the beautiful ´Thousand Shades of Blue´ from Carmen Gomes inc.
and ´Road to Memphis from Paul Berner Band.
Carmen Gomes has recorded several audiophile albums for the marantz´sts
label,but I find this one much more satisfying,in audio terms. More depth,space,placement,intimacy and balance.
The Road to Memphis album is the ultimate pairing of americana and jazz,and an Elvis Presley tribute with no singer!or maybe the sound track of the movie they still have to make.
My favorite track is the ´Colonel´,Michael Moore enters with just a whisper on his clarinet before he plays the beautiful melody, at 00.47.

The Sound Liaison recordings sounds to me a bit like the best of the recordings done in the late 50´s i.e. Kind of Blue,Brubeck´s Time out,Take Five,same kind of spaciousness and in combination with modern recording technology it´s a unique sounding result.

What is your favorite non pasteurized new label/site?
