product description

Olivia Trummer's Westwind album, originally released in the spring of 2008, garnered enthusiastic praise, including the German Record Critics' Award and Stereoplay's CD of the Month accolades. Now, in a nod to vintage audiophile sensibilities, the album is receiving a deluxe analog treatment with a vinyl edition.

Recorded in December 2007, the Olivia Trummer Trio's Westwind was captured both digitally on the Pyramix workstation and analogously on a Studer A80 24-track tape machine, boasting a meticulously crafted analog signal chain from microphone to tape. The mixing process utilized revered analog equipment including a Neve console, Studer tape machine, and the iconic EMT gold foil reverb.

For this special vinyl release, mastered in "half-speed," two previously unreleased tracks, "Teufelstanz" and "Weihnachtsmann," join the original album lineup, adding a touch of intrigue to the collection.

The vinyl edition promises not just an analog sonic experience but also a journey into contrasting musical realms, much like the juxtaposition between analog and digital domains.

Press reviews have hailed Olivia Trummer as a jazz phenomenon, with her pianistic prowess and musical maturity marking her as one of the brightest talents in the German jazz scene and beyond.
