[vegas]

Anybody got shipping notice from bandcamp? Still nothing for me...

 

[quadrifonico]

by the way it is a Bandcamp exclusive? (the blu-ray)

 

[marpow]

I ordered the new Blu Ray from BandCamp $33.96 to Calif.


This is a cool album also. Terry Bozzio, Tony Levins and Steve Stevens. Black Light Syndrome.

Their second album, Situation Dangerous, is good as well.

Just ordered, the confirmation states it should ship Friday.

Indeed, love that album!

The Atmos is on Tidal but I don't want to listen to it. Prefer to wait! But I've checked out the stereo he sent through. That drummer song is a real hoot.

Looks like there is some delay in Blu-ray production of the new Tony Levin album. I got response from Flatiron Recordings via Bandcamp about the status of my order:

The Blu Rays are still in production and pre-order status.

That's been happening a lot this year it seems, I'm going to take this as a positive, that the overwhelming demand for all things Blu-ray (especially surround music/Atmos) is outpacing production

For sure J-Pup. It takes a massive amount of concentration to keep up, let alone listen once, listening twice might come months later.
We asked and they delivered.
Listening to my new MQA Van Hagar stereo CD's, absolutely stunning sound.
While I rip my new Zappa set, work baby work.

Now SOLD OUT sadly! I wonder if this could be an album for Immersive Audio if no more blu-rays are to be produced? I would definitely be interested as I had been about to order it on Bandcamp.

Did you manage to order this from Bandcamp, Andrew? If so, you'll get to download 48/24 stereo flacs immediately. I'm only five songs in, but so far I think it's a winner in stereo. I can be patient for the blu-ray. I'm pretty busy for the next few weeks anyway.

After listening to the record and partially thanks to the delay, I decided to ask for a cancellation. Great musicianship, but the music doesn't move me (apart from the first song).
Let's see how efficient their support is managing the refund.
Edit: Great support, I got the refund in less than one hour since I sent my request

Exactly my thoughts after first listening. I'm pretty sure the Atmos mix would be excellent, but I doubt I would listen to the whole album more than once... It's just not my type of music.
So I decided to cancell my order as you did. I can confirm excellent support, refunded after a few hours.

I'm wondering if ol' Tony is beginning to regret sending out those flacs beforehand!

From my place, I liked the album upon listening to the stereo files while walking to work, but have now deleted the flacs from my phone as I want to wait for the surround version (skipping even the streamed, lossy version).

These kind of albums, for me, the consummate musicianship ones, can be harder to get into, but I enjoy the journey of exploring them and letting them grow on me, and I also find they usually stick with me the longest, returning to them every now and then over the years. I also imagine the physical copy may become hard to get in time.

Having said that, the drum song towards the end was an immediate grab, and so ironically, I will probably get sick of that one fairly quickly! Though it will always remain super clever, well done, and one to play like-minded friends. It's both a great laugh and impressive at the same time. I can't imagine him attempting that one live, but who knows!
