Hot Off the Presses
Haunting Melodies, Gospel
and Across the River in Digipak
  
No more cracked cases and broken
hinges, these freshly repressed Marley's
Ghost CDs
are in an alternative CD eco-package. The digipak is a sturdy board
package that unfolds to reveal the CD sitting securely in a plastic
disc tray.
Going to
the West
by Ed Littlefield, Jr., was Sage Arts' first album to go digi. We are
so pleased with the results that our other albums are going digi as
they are repressed.
Haunting Melodies and Gospel – Remixed
and
Remastered
When Daniel Protheroe and Matthew
Gephart, our sound engineers, mix a recording, they work with the
individual tracks such as bass, drums, vocals, guitar, fiddle, then mix
the tracks together to get the best sound. After an album is
mixed, it's mastered.
Mastering makes sure that the entire
recording stands together as an album with consistent sound levels,
breaks between songs, the best song sequence. Mastering polishes all
the details and sets the tone for the album.
Sage Arts contracts mastering to Bob
Katz of Digital
Domain. He's a mastering master!
When we sell all of a particular CD,
as we did with Haunting Melodies
and Gospel, our sound
engineers check out the original mix. Sometimes the mix can be improved
because we have better mixing equipment than when the original mix was
done. Such was the case with Haunting
Melodies and Gospel,
MG's first and fourth albums.
Across
the River wasn't remixed because it was recorded more recently
and the mix was fine.
