Kompendium - Beneath The Waves mixed in 5.1

[SMS]

Hi Peter, apparently I was in the first batch of orders. Good that Rob Reed declined the first offering, as the current sleeve is really nice. Combined with the music and mix, it is well worth the wait.

Awesome news! I can hardly wait!

-OFF TOPIC-

I was suppose to save money this month... darn... bought the 3 Magentas and the Kompendium without thinking it .... I havent even heard the music... well..hope Its worth it!

Confirmed the music is very good. Nice orchestrated prog, very well played and sang. I gave the 5.1 a first spin and the mix is really great. A balanced front stage and loads of things going on in the rears, as there are the orchestra, choir and guitars and percussion. Solo vocals and guitar mixed into the center channel. I am very impressed by the music and mix, lovely altogether.

The sound is great too, mastered by Neil. Thanks man, its another quality release from Opus.

I'm really liking this one too!!

The sound is lots better than the Magenta discs. Sounds gorgeous...

Now we just need DVD-A re-releases of the Magenta albums... Hint hint....

Yes, good to see new music being released in 5.1, with a great mix and fidility. I second your hint for the Magenta re release on dvd-a. Those albums would benifit greatly.

hmmmm... i made my order on the 15th, ive been emaling them to find out if they already sent the album, but i dont get any response whatsoever... I also bought some Magenta albums from their Magenta site and no anwers also...

I dont care if they tell me, "Sorry, we havent sent the discs yet" but I would expect at least an answer.

Kompendium released a stereo and a stereo instrumental version too. Downloadable via bandcamp, http://kompendium.bandcamp.com. I bought the instrumental version, it is 24 bits 44.1kHz.

Hi everyone; it's been an age since we posted here. We really ought to get that Q&A sorted out I'll drop the mods a line and see if we can't get something posted to collect that Q's and then we'll do the A's.

Thanks for all your support. It really is appreciated.

 

[Robert van Diggele]

Looking forward to the Q&A. And thanks for linking to QQ on the Kompendium FB page!

Did anything came out of the Q&A proposal? Does Rob Reed still have the time to do this, considering the new Magenta album that will be released within a few months? It would be great to hear his plans for the future, and if there is a possibility that the lossy Magenta 5.1's will be re-released in hi res.

Thank you for your reply.

I don't know anything about the Q&A but it sounds like a great idea!

I do know for sure that Rob still visits QQ from time to time and that he's interested in making Magenta material available in hi res. Showing that there's a demand would do no harm!

I've said before that I consider Rob to be as good at 5.1 as Mr Wilson. His mixes of "Seven", "Metamorphosis" and "Chameleon" are nothing short of stunning, even in DTS. I for one would re-buy hi-res releases in a heartbeat should they ever be made available.

 

[Robert van Diggele]

100% agreed. Instant buy when those albums will be released as hi res!

 

[DuncanS]

I'd buy them all again just to get the Hi-Res 5.1 rather than the DD. And Kompendium is quite a brilliant piece of work IMHO.

 

[The Bright Side]

Man, I just realized I never bought this Kompendium thing. Just checking out some tracks on youtube. Great stuff. My poor wallet :-/
