Caribbean Free Radio #8.5 – Retakes

Posted by Georgia on April 3, 2005 at 11:50 pm.

A mini-podcast this one, because let’s face it, the sound quality of the music on the last podcast was beyond appalling. So, to be fair to Chi Chi Peralta and The John Michael Hersey Band, here are their tracks again, served on a bed of the usual ramblings from your host.

You can listen to it in any of the following ways:

– as an MP3: simply click to stream in your browser, or right-click and save to download the file to your computer

– using our nifty Online Player, which allows you to play the latest podcast as well as several of the previous ones

    The songs didn’t sound bad to me on my Shuffle in the first one. When people quote your podcast in theirs, that involves resampling and all kinds of stuff and can sometimes make it sound bad. That’s not necessarily an indictment of your originals, just of the resampling and processing and possibly additonal A/D, etc etc etc.

    Me personally, I’d rather see you put out more new shows than worrying about the old ones. Even if it could be edited better or cleaned up, move on rather than spin your wheels. Do your best each time, which will because of the laws of physics be less than perfect and accept that fact. Put that energy into forward momentum rather than retrograde motion.

    That’s just my suggestion.

    Yeah I feel a bit guilty… like when your parents are away and you break something in the house. But umm… I didn’t mind hearing an encore of those songs ;) So maybe it’s not spinning wheels, maybe – it’s taking a bow?
