  • Echo's End Reference, Upgraded from Firewall 64X Technology to Firewall 640X Technology]
    Discrete Precision Resistor R-2R Ladder DAC Date Added: 08/24/2021 by Jörg from Dortmund, Germany [Echo's End Reference, upgraded from Firewall 64x technology to Firewall 640x technology] When I installed the DAC during the week I hadn’t too much time to take a listen during the week. As I’m very familiar with the Sound of the Reference DAC over the years, I’m pretty sure to remember how it sounds, especially with extremely familiar discs. Some might say, that this is difficult without direct comparison of the DAC with the older incarnation of Firewall modules to the one that is equipped with the actual new Firewall modules, it is new, you want it to sound better, but that might only belong to your imagination. And that might be the case with other gear, tweaks, cabling, whatever, when the difference in sound is very small. You wish it to be, but you can’t be sure. Now I listened to my most familiar discs again, and the difference is not subtle, it is simply astounding! Never would i have thought of such a big improvement, coming with the replacement of the older Firewall modules. Everything is brought out better, acoustic instruments sound incredibly natural and real. Everything has more depth and contour. It simply sounds more energetic and precise. The reverberation of voices and decaying instruments lingers longer than before. Basses are more profound. And again, I’m hearing a cornucopia of details that were previously imperceptible. And with excellent sounding discs, my room is flooded with sound, I have the feeling I’m bathing in it.

But ours is a way of life. Secrets of the Beehive made greater use of acoustic instruments and was musically oriented towards sombre, emotive ballads laced with string arrangements by Ryuichi Sakamoto and Brian Gascoigne. Sylvian and Fripp's final collaboration was the installation Redemption — Approaching Silence. The two artists lived in New Hampshire where they had two children. For me, that David Sylvian as a Philosopher an exploration of intuitive states via meditation and other related disciplines which, the more I witnessed free-improv players at work, appeared to be crucially important to enable a being there in the moment, a sustained alertness and receptivity.

En effet, la quasi-totalité des états de cette planète ont solennellement annoncé leur intention de signer la convention de l'UNESCO sur la diversité culturelle. Bon... Ce texte a, semble-t-il, force de traité, donc d'engagement légal. Il dépasse, et de loin, toutes les paresseuses tergiversations sur la démocratie culturelle, sur l'Art pour tous, sur les hypothétiques "exceptions" et les bien réels privilèges de l'élite. On ne plaisantera donc plus avec tout ce qui peut mettre en danger cette diversité, précieuse horloge biologique que le Commando MIMI, depuis sa création, s'acharne à protéger. Ce qui vient et ce qui part nourrit précisément cette diversité. On parle là de périphéries, de générations, d'esthétiques. Pour le plus humble d'entre nous, être différent est un Droit. Etre autonome est un Droit. Chanter en tout lieu est un Droit. Se promener est un Droit. Refuser l'idée même de bon goût est un Droit. Combattre les monopoles de la pensée et de l'argent (ce sont finalement les mêmes) est un devoir. Bénéficier du chant des vieux est élégant... Céder sa place aux jeunes l'est aussi...

  • Travel Diary of a Bibliomaniac
    Travel Diary of a Bibliomaniac When asked to play bass on David Sylvian's tour of Europe last fall, Keith Lowe saw it as a paid opportunity to visit the storied bookshops of London. y night (and some days) Seattle's Keith Lowe is a professional musician much in demand by Ba wide range of artists on both sides of the border. By day he is a chronic collector-motion lamps, robots and most especially books, with a particular emphasis on early-20th-century edi­ tions of fairy tales and the works of Arthur Rackham. His bibliomania has become sufficiently advanced that in recent years he has been studying bookbinding. In 2000, on the recommendation of guitarist Bill Frisell (on whose album The Willies Keith played), David Sylvian invited Keith to join a tour of Europe. Sylvian's career started in the mid-'7os with the band Japan. Over the past 25 years he has pursued a wide variety of solo projects, continuously challenging and moving farther away from common notions of pop mu­ sic. In 2005 Sylvian asked Keith to participate in the recording sessions for his latest project, an ensemble group to be known as Nine Horses. Keith's upright acoustic and electric bass playing contributed to the unique sound on both the album Snow Borne Sorrow and a follow-up EP. When Keith was invited to join Sylvian's tour of Europe last fall, Amphora knew where his mind would be when not on stage. We asked him to keep a log of his adventures in book scout­ ing and agonies of choosing what to buy.

  • Psaudio Copper
    Issue 109 APRIL 20TH, 2020 This issue’s cover: Judy Garland (1922 – 1969). One of the most iconic actresses, recording artists and performers of all time. Though haunted by personal struggles, she attained greatness that few ever achieved. Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue. Like everyone else, we at Copper have been impacted by the coronavirus, whether by disruption in our work and home lives to financial impact, stress, anxiety and writer’s block. And yes, one of us contracted the virus – thankfully, he’s doing OK. So, over the next few issues you might see some changes – temporary absence of some writers, a different balance of articles and other differences from the usual. We trust you’ll understand, and we look forward to when these pages, and our lives, reach a new equilibrium. It is with great sadness that we note the passing of Stereophile deputy editor Art Dudley. He was one of the finest men ever to grace the audio industry. My tribute to him is in these pages. Also in this issue: Rich Isaacs begins a series on Italian progressive rock with a look at the great PFM (Premiata Forneria Marconi). Ken Sander takes us on a wild rock and roll ride with Eric Burdon and War. Professor Larry Schenbeck continues his series on immersive sound. WL Woodward gets jazzed about bass. John Seetoo concludes his series on legendary Yellow Magic Orchestra/film composer/techno-pop pioneer Ryuichi Sakamoto. In a special report we ask audio companies how they’re responding to the COVID-19 crisis.

  • Minnet Om Et Ansikt
    Vagant Tidsskrift for litteratur, kunst, musikk, film, ideer og samtidsdebatt. http://www.vagant.no Minnet om et ansikt Author : Erik Honoré Date : 23/08/2016 Historien om David Sylvian handler om et popikon som gladelig lot seg smuldre hen. He said «to conquer the world is not to leave a trace Remove even the shadow of the memory of your face» David Sylvian, «The Greatest Living Englishman» (2009) David Sylvian, Hypergraphia: The Writings of David Sylvian 1980-2014, Opium 2015 Den britiske artisten David Sylvian (f. 1958) har gjennom hele sin virksomhet som musiker kjempet med popformatet. Tøyingen av grensene begynte med nysgjerrighet og utålmodighet, men fremsto etter hvert som et klart uttalt prosjekt. Sylvian ønsket å utfordre, og gradvis oppløse, selve reisverket i det man forbinder med popsjangeren: Vokalen, harmoniene, rytmene – kjennetegnene til en tradisjon han fremdeles insisterer på at han arbeider innenfor. Parallelt med denne utfordringen av låtformatet, trådte Sylvian som person gradvis inn i skyggene. Dette var til dels et resultat av at musikken hans ble stadig mer utfordrende, men det handlet også om et bevisst valg. Verdens vakreste 1 / 18 mann, som de glansede, britiske popmagasinene kalte ham, trivdes aldri i rampelyset. Derfor blir fotografiene av ham færre og færre jo nærmere man kommer slutten av den nylig utgitte, retrospektive boka Hypergraphia – the writings of David Sylvian, som samler tekstene han har skrevet siden han slo igjennom med bandet Japan, og viser frem det visuelle universet som har ledsaget Sylvians musikk fra begynnelsen av. Da jeg første gang åpnet Hypergraphia, var det med en følelse som lignet den jeg husker fra da jeg spratt plasten på soloalbumene hans Brilliant Trees, Gone to Earth og Secrets of the Beehive på åttitallet.
