the paradox of refined easy-listening [vinyl]

Deep house electro sunny vintage sample by The Avener: honey for zoreilles the soundtrack that fits your mood Yes, but vinyl is complicated, you must get up (in addition to the have paid more), then it's worth it?
[Critical / note reflects only the vinyl media therefore]

Pouch (double gatefold) coverage homage Blue Note, with just enough of egocentrism to a producer inspired DJ. Intense dark blue and very simple but effective graphics. Matt varnish would have been welcome, fingerprints appear quickly on paper saturated with dark ink. Nice touch, the interior pockets are printed on both sides, with a beautiful cyan inside. 1 * 2.

Patties: 2 LP 180g. Obviously coming from such a producer, sincere silversmith, engraving and mixing are very good. Harmonious complexity, clarity, balance-acute and flights: very neat. 2 * 2 *.

digital version: download code provided, with a bonus mix 54 minutes (although a fair bit mp3 160 kbit / s). But the rant is the way: a web page with the 1-2-3 1st step method "Likez Facebook page." Uh The Avener is talented enough to not have to force our hand. Well actually, the step is optional (although it is not shown at all). That said, one would have expected worse from a Major as Universal. A single star to be allocated, but there we lean the wrong side of the balance, no half measures: 0.

Conclusion: if only sound matters to you, go for this vinyl release. But if it is the subject that fuels your desire, it remains dispensable.
