Metallica – …And Justice For All (1988/2016) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · July 2, 2023 · Comments off

The group’s best-selling album at the time, …And Justice for All is the fourth studio album by Metallica. It was the band’s first studio album to feature bassist Jason Newsted after the death of Cliff Burton in 1986. …And Justice for All is musically progressive, with long and complex songs, fast tempos, and few verse-chorus structures. The album is noted for its sterile production, which producer Flemming Rasmussen attributed to his absence during the mixing process. The lyrics feature themes of political and legal injustice seen through the prisms of censorship, war, and nuclear brinkmanship. The single “One” earned Metallica its first Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance in 1990.

Curtis J Stewart – of Love. (2023) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · July 1, 2023 · Comments off

Tearing down the facade of “classical violinist,” Stewart is in constant pursuit of his musical authenticity, treating art as a battery for realizing citizenship.

He has made special appearances with Los Angeles Opera and singer-songwriter Tamar Kali; as curator and guest soloist with Anthony Roth Costanzo and the New York Philharmonic “Bandwagon,” touring performance installations from NYC’s Whitney Museum, Guggenheim Museum, and Museum of Modern Art; to MTV specials with Wyclef Jean; and sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden with Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, and Seal. Stewart’s 2021 album of quarantined song cycles and art videos, Of POWER (Bright Shiny Things), was nominated for a GRAMMY Award for Best Classical Instrumental Solo. JazzTimes raves, “he shows his audience the colors inside of himself—color(s) not yet invented. Far from self-indulgent, it is self-revelatory. It is vulnerable. It is creation.”

In 2022, he was named Artistic Director of the American Composers Orchestra, a national organization dedicated to the creation, celebration, performance, and promotion of orchestral music by diverse and innovative American composers.

Cuarteto Casals – J.S. Bach: The Art of Fugue (2023) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · July 1, 2023 · Comments off

Notated on four staves, as though intended for some unspecified set of instruments (or even voices? or keyboard?), these thirteen erudite contrapuncti, four canons, and an unfinished triple fugue—incorporating the letters of Bach’s name—are often considered to be his musical testament. Shrouded in myths traceable to its very origins, The Art of Fugue is a puzzle for the performers and for the listeners alike, but when a brilliant string quartet takes up the challenge, a solution becomes obvious, and the music takes flight.

Cowboy Junkies – Such Ferocious Beauty (2023) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44,1kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · July 1, 2023 · Comments off

The album is vintage Cowboy Junkies and another dimension from the lo-fi Canadian band comprised of, well, family. A tangle of sonic textures, Beauty is a rumination on aging, losing parents, facing mortality and creating space for one’s life in the midst of the ruin that comes from merely living. ‘Mike has never shied away from the darker, harder and sometimes uglier realities of our human condition’, Margo Timmins explains of the band’s singular focus, ‘nor has he shied from its beauty. Thankfully, with one comes the other’.
