Brahms: 4 Symphonies - Sanderling | Contrapunctus - September 18, 2021

What a fine Brahms cycle! Apart from being surprisingly well-recorded, Sanderling's account reveals lots of interesting detail. Especially the wood winds are treated with love ...

Miles Davis: In a Silent Way | Ben Leggett - September 5, 2021

Blade Runner - Soundtrack | Ben Leggett - September 14, 2021

I don't see much point to this one - it sounds *identical* to the regular RBCD releases, and waveforms clearly indicate it was mastered from 44.1khz PCM. Save your money and ...
