BRAND NEW 2014 Project......REEL TO REEL HD AUDIO !!!
I have located some of the original reels which were the recordings of The Transplants.I am working on those old 4 Track Tapes now.The ASlbum and the CD which came out had been sourced with some old safety copies not the original reels.Some reels were found and two of them contain tunes used on the official releases.Now I am going to restore those reels and put them here for any to grab and share. Here is your first free reel to reel.This session was done on 4 Track Tape with Roger Tripp of LaPeste playing drums and doing backing vocals.Reel to reel was recorded at the old LaPeste Loft on Chauncey Street , Boston, Mass April - May 1979 I am doing this in two formats for you and both are in FLAC FORMAT.You will have the choice of grabbing a 16bit/44.1k FLAC for CD or the high definition 24bit /96k FLAC for better sound.I suggest grabbing the HD Audio and listening thru big speaker system.Audio is all properly tagged w/info and cover art.Folder includes more info and various images plus tech info.Right click on link and save to your device.Archive is a ZIPFILE. All the Tape Reels are being mixed by Jordan Kratz 2014.Using M-Audio Profire 2626 with Merging Technologies Pyramix.Also using a bunch of other gear to restore these reels. HERE: Transplants direct from 4 Track Reeel from May 1979 at the LaPeste Loft with Roger Tripp (drummer of LaPeste) druming and doing backing vocals.Recording was done by Dave "Hardkorps" Koehler, Mark Mayhem, and Jordan Kratz The Transplants 5/79 LaPeste Loft Recordings at 16bit/ 44.1k FLAC Here The Transplants 5/79 LaPeste Loft Recordings at HD Audio 24bit/ 96k FLAC Here
And here we have a brandnew thing I have done.Basically I took a reel which was labeled Rhythm Tracks May 1979 and I took the above reel for the May 1979 DIY Studio Project and married the two together like this: Track 1 - Left Drums, Track 2 - Right Drums, Track 3 - Rhythm Guitar,Track 4 - Bass,Track 5 - Lead/Rhythm Overdub, Track 6 - Vocals. The two tapes were running at slightly different speed and not timecoded so this has been 4-6 weeks of work to sync together.Should be done now and it sounds really good.I hear everything from kick drum to the crispy cymbals. HERE: The New 6 Track Expanded Re-Mix for the DIY Studio PRoject with Roger Tripp at the LaPeste Loft May 1979. The Expanded 6 Track Remix at HD 24bit/ 96k FLAC Here 6-Track Part 1 6-Track Part 2 The Expanded 6 Track Remix at HD 16bit/ 44.1k FLAC Here
HERE: The Transplants from 4 Track Reel with Roger Tripp playing live at The Space, Batterymarch Street, Boston,Mass in June of 1979.Recording was done by Dave "Hardkorps" Koehler The Transplants Live at the Space June 1979 HD Audio 24bit/96k FLAC here The Transplants Live at the Space at 16bit/ 44.1k FLAC here
The next three reels I found are with Paul Lacritz on Drums.These were recorded and mixed in a few places.Rhythm Tracks (drums,bass,rhythymguitar) were recorded around Sept. - Nov.1978 in the old Lynn Loft which we were evicted from by the end of November.Eviction notice is included in the 3 reels as a jpg image. The Vocals and lead guitar were done at my Parent's home in Marblehead by the Middle of December 1978. Then various mixes and minor things were done at my old Aprtment in Marblehead which I shared with Dan and Dave "Hardkorps" Koehler.All three of these are now restored and remixed by Jordan 2014. The Recordings were all done by Dave "HardKorps" Koehler with his TEAC 4 Track.Mark and Jordan did some recording and assistance but Dave deserves the greater credit for helping us, donating his gear, and being a great friend.RIP Dave and RIP Roger and RIP Marky...............3 awesome old friends of mine I really miss.
