Streaming gets vinylfied
Sound quality, and compression algorithms and the (endless) analogue v digital debate always elicit heated exchanges at the POSmusic office, but if there’s one thing we can agree on here, it’s that nothing comes close to the feeling of putting on a record- hiss, pops, crackle and all.
While software emulations have tried for years to perfect our favourite imperfections for the recording studio, new website Vinylfied aim to “bring back the feeling of warmth of vinyl to your music” via an inconspicuous tab in your browser that plays alongside your usual streaming service.
While we can’t see ourselves putting away our cumbersome records and pair of SL-1200 just yet, anything that brings attention to the vinyl and music markets is a good thing!
