Edited 11 months agoMy first, only, and last experience with this label was the two Neil Merryweather Space Rangers albums reissued by Regain Records in 2021.
I rreceived the CDs today. I would have thought by 2021 the loudness wars were over. Apparently not. I'm not sure why they felt the need to remaster this so loud. In most circumstances, a typical CD within my collection would be set at a moderate volume level of maybe -40dB. When playing this CD to achieve the same level of volume, I have to set it much lower at -60dB. Also the sound is a bit muddled. Obviously a fair amount of compression and filtering has been done. I really wish this would have been a flat transfer or something close. I suppose those unfamiliar with the way this album should sound will be none the wiser, and wouldn't think twice until reading this review, Lol. Perhaps those who enjoy loudly mastered CDs might not have a problem. I'm glad I still have my original Space Rangers LP's!
