    DMM, is it a Direct to Metal Mastering cut? word + word.

      Edited one year ago
      Great sounding record here, perhaps slightly grainy and oriented towards the mid-high frequencies, with some sibilance scattered here and there, but at the same time quite linear across the entire range, with a more than good bass response and an excellent and defined soundstage. Play it loud (and get the funk up)!
