Matthew Ebel Vinyl LP?
11 years ago
General
So, with less than 2 weeks left for the Kickstarter campaign, 
hali and I are only about $1K away from making the new release, "High Orbit Saves The Pandas" into a full length vinyl LP!
I, especially, being very much in love with the vinyl format of playback, would be totally stoked if this happened. We've way surpassed the EP stage. A 7" single with 2 songs. I would be ecstatic if we made the $9K goal.
If you haven't made a pledge, PLEASE DO! If you have, tell friends to pledge. Make sure they know a 'pledge' is NOT a 'donation'. With every pledge you receive something awesome in return. There are many stages of pledges.
We are currently at $8,002. If we make it to $9K, we get a single, 180g, full length vinyl LP.
If we make it to $13K we get a full, double 180g, vinyl set. Both will contain all the new songs, BUT, the double vinyl will include the full, unedited CD length radio play. So, more comedy for the buck.
Here are the logistics. Since we're recording at 48k instead of 44.1k (which is the CD standard), the vinyl will actually sound BETTER than the CD!
Help us achieve this goal! Only 13 days left.

Matt and I worked really hard doing the preliminary recordings. On October 28th, I will be going to Mad Oaks recording studio to redo the drum tracks in a live drum room. This alone will add new dimension to the all around sound of the music. Add a real bassist and guitarist, replacing Matt's keyboard guitars and bass, and you'll have the best sounding release of Matt's career. The first ever, since his very first CD, to have a full band supporting him.
Let's make it all happen! Without YOU, we can't do this.
Thank you all and CHEERS!

We already have former band mates doing the bass and guitars. Both total pros.
Digital can sound great but the problem with too many modern digital recordings is they are mixed and mastered with too much compression and extreme "smiley face" EQ to sound good on radio and low watt Mp3 players and computers.
Along with the 320 kbps Mp3's I suggest offering FLAC format files from the 48k master. I've bought a few and you can hear the difference.
Is there a good FLAC playback software I can download that's relatively inexpensive?
I still have to convert FLAC flies to Mp3 for my Jeep's Car stereo and Ipod classic. The only program I have used to play and convert FLAC files is Winamp. I dont know what works on Macs.
