[audio] Raxyor live in Prague, 19 June 2010

Raxyor live at Parukarka Bunkr, Prague, 19 June 2010.

I originally posted this Raxyor recording many years ago. But I was recently listening to it at home or maybe in my car, and heard that the files had been corrupted. I thought it was good opportunity to just start from the beginning and do a full re-work, remix and remaster of the recording.

I'm so much better at it now and have so many more tools at my disposal, that anything I re-do from the old days will sound a whole lot better than my first attempt.

[audio] Aphex Twin live in Roskilde, 29 June 1997

So this Aphex Twin recording has been floating around the internet for decades. Live performance (back in the good ol' days when Richard used to actually play live, not just dj) from Roskilde Festival in Denmark in 1997, as broadcast on Swedish National Radio.

I saw a recent post on Dark Circle Room (here, where you can download the original tracks that I used for my remaster- darkcircleroom4.blogspot.com/2...e-festival.html) where it is described as the complete performance as opposed to some other versions that have been around for years.

So I downloaded it. The audio from that original broadcast is really good- stereo board feed combined with stereo audience mics for applause, the same way I do all my recordings. And while it does sound very good, once I popped it into my DAW, I saw and heard that it really needed some help. It had a very weak low end and sounded just kinda lifeless, like it had no spark in it at all.

So then I fixed it- pumped some low end back into it, brought some excitement back to the overall sound, did some trickery with the phase and the panning, beefed up the audience sounds a bit.
