Nostramus
announce the release of a re-tweaked and
re-mastered version of the 1997 album Earthlights.
The original Earthlights
was first released in the UK in 1997 by Recordings
of Substance followed by Shadow Records
who licensed it for the US market in 1998.
The brand new Earthlights
Re-mastered, is now available from the online
label, Diamond Seeds Productions
Nostramus will be joining other artists
including Ella Jo on the new label, which
will be making full use of new web fulfilment strategies
for online mail order and downloading facilities.
Nostramus founding member Steve
Spon has returned to the original source master
tapes in order to complete this work.
"Although
I was reasonably happy with the original mastering of
Earthlights, I have since become a lot more fluent with
audio mastering techniques. In this edition, I have
returned to the source master tapes, taking care with
every step of the process in order to retain the original
concept and flow. I feel I have now created a much more
considered dynamic to the sound-scape, hopefully bringing
the whole thing up to todays audio standards and listen
ability.
Aside
from the re-mastering, I have re-edited and re-mixed
'Babel' the opening track to the album, mixing in some
new warped-up Amen from the un-released Jungle version
of Babel. There are also one or two other new samples,
subtly crafted into some of the other pieces to spice
up the mix. Overall, I am much happier now with the
sound and flow of the re-mastered album and I hope the
listener will enjoy it even more"
