Your gear and apps are dialed in. Converted some tracks to lossy mp3 on an offline box with drive space limitations and they still show as FLAC quality in the spectrum analyzer!
That rarely happens. Keep on.
I didn’t know the song by name, but it all came back to me when I heard “Feel The Raindrops On My Head”. Great song and very catchy lyrics!
Another Great Post Paul.
Do you please have Max Q Sometimes 12″.
Thanks Paul. Please keep the new wave coming!
You’re welcome, Omar 🙂
Fantastic Paul! That’s another favourite of mine and I specially love this remix. Your rips of “Send my heart” sound great and this one is fantastic as well. I can definitely say that your remasters are better than those from Cherry Red in 2009. Thank you so much Paul for this special “Adventures” week 🙂
You’re very welcome, Daniel 🙂
I love when you do these series once in awhile Paul. They are such a gift to us! I’m enjoying The Adventures singles a lot. They should have had a higher chart position.
Jeff
Thank you, Jeff agree that this band is very underrated 🙂
