About this deal

The only thing that is good is the excellent packaging that is well spaced for the records (sleeves), the booklet is really gorgeous. The bass sound is not very well-heard, I don't now how to explain, I think the sound is a bit more delicate ?

On top of that, you've got a gorgeous gatefold (with a much thicker spine than usual) with high-quality artwork and a booklet. All image and audio content is used by permission of the copyright holders or their agents, and/or according to fair dealing as per the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. The track with the most pops probably is Honeymoon but it’s the quietest song so it is normal I guess.Over its 40 years in business, PIAS has grown to be one of the largest independently-owned music groups in the world, carving out its own in-house recorded music division PIAS [Recordings]. His full length debut on Daptone Records is equal parts raw feeling and elegance and exudes confidence and charm. Comprised of various labels we know and love at Rough Trade (Bella Union, ATO, Speedy Wunderground, Phantasy, Heavenly, Mute and more) PIAS [Recordings] filter through some of the most diverse artistry to our racks, which we greatly enjoy digging into. No complaints about the mastering underneath though; sounds good and could be great with a perfect pressing.

I suspect this is caused by the record being mastered at a very loud sound volume, which makes the grooves wider and pushes the grooves fairly close to the centre of the record - but again, I'm surprised by the issue being so prominent on side D, particularly because this side seems to be mastered at a lower sound volume than the other sides (a minor quick in itself - but at least it's consisten within each side, unlike the volume jumps on "Paradise"). Los Angeles-raised and Berlin-based artist Hayfitz is about to take you on a personal journey through his music with the single “Curl. The track opens with a mesmerizing interplay between piano and bass, creating a syncopated groove that immediately draws you in. The EU red copy I have has a few pops and ticks, nothing major, and seems to respond to cleaning so may become even better with a few more cleans.Honeymoon has always been one of my favorite albums in Lana's catalog, but oh my, the sound quality of the vinyl just elevated my listening experience from this album to new heights.

It did came with a lot of dust surprisingly but the sound was quite good, I did hear some pops when I first played it but it quickly stopped to make space to Lana's voice and hauntingly notes. The records themselves are thick and flat and seem well centered, so nothing to complain about there.Compared to the Europe edition, "LANA DEL REY" and "HONEYMOON" have gloss lettering on the cover of this edition. The saxophone, played by Scott Tixier and Brent Birckhead, emerges as a central figure in the melodic landscape. I'm aware of inner groove distortion being a thing, but this goes way beyond what I observe on other records, even records that have much longer running times than this one has. Includes download code for a digital copy of the album in CD quality wav format from thesoundofvinyl. is a distortion in the high frequencies that appear towards the end of the discs, particularly on side C and side D.
