half-speed master
This album was experty cut using high precision half-speed mastering at AIR Mastering.
Half-speed mastering is a vinyl cutting technique that improves groove accuracy and transient information creating an incredibly detailed stereo image with a natural high frequency response.
Released in June 1990 and widely considered one of the definitive electronic albums of its era, Electribal Memories delivered the trailblazing and definitive singles ‘Tell Me When The Fever Ended’, ‘Talking With Myself’, ‘You’re Walking’ and a startling interpretation of the Odyssey classic ‘Inside Out’.

‘Electribal memories’ 2024 edition project managed by Mark Wood for Ben Stanley at Demon Music Group. Mastered by and lacquer cut by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering.
Original sleeve by Mark Farrow and Paul West at 3a. Photography by Lewis Mulatero, assisted by Joel Rajwadi. Make up by Joanne Halmshaw. Additional design by Philip Marshall, November 2023.
Demon Music Group would like to thank Billie Ray Martin, Matt Dixon, Bill Brewster, Pete Paphides, Anthony Kay, Eliott Bishop, Lidia Pini, Anthony Prodmorou and Lewis Mulatero.
This release was mastered at half-speed using transfers of the master tapes. The equipment at AIR Mastering uses balanced mains power for improved performance and lower noise and the digital equipment is locked in to an extremely accurate digital clock to reduce jitter. The Neumann VMS80 lathes and cutting amplifiers used have been fully renovated and modified to enable half-speed mastering.

    Beautifully remastered edition of this seminal album. Sound is balanced and clear, with gorgeous bottom-end; the only flaw being the level sibilance that hasn't been properly tamed during the mastering process. Pressing is quiet and flat, and artwork is faithful to the original. Ticks all the right boxes.

      Such crisp vocals on this sonically enhanced half-speed remaster. An album that was years ahead of its time back in 1990 and wonderful to see this underground gem get such a stunning repress. Billie's vocals are so clear and haunting on this - she could almost be in your living room whilst the subtle layers of electronics are spaced out on this remaster drawing particular attention to the basslines - wonderful stuff. The album has always been a fave of mine over the years and I'm probably biased but this is the best it's ever sounded. Congrats to Demon and the team at Air Studios.

        What is "Talking 2", the last track on B side? Is that the 7:50 "Talking With Myself (Frankie Knuckles Mix)" or something else?
