Arabs in Aspic Pictures in a Dream Limited Edition 12

Pictures in a Dream is the fourth album from Trondheim's top - notch progressive rock band, Arabs in Aspic. Originally released in 2013 by the Italian label Black Widow Records, it quickly gained international acclaim, leading to numerous concerts across the continent. The band's passion for sound experimentation really shows on this album. They used some unconventional methods, like using multiple microphones to capture the room's sound instead of just the sound sources. For instance, they used 9 microphones for the Hammond organ. This led to a lot of fine - tuning and less control but created a unique sound that was different from the norm in 2013. In 2010, a concert with Ruphus and Høst in Bodø brought the legendary Ruphus singer Rune Sundby as a guest on two album songs. This re - release is based on the original recordings but is completely re - edited and remixed. Some of the issues caused by the many microphones in the room have been fixed. Some vocals and lyrics have been replaced with archived ones and new ideas, making the album even better. A few instrumental overdubs have also been added. The result is a more powerful and cleaner version of the album. The band has also shuffled the song sequence to offer a new listening experience with a different mood from the original release. This is the fourth out of six reworked and remastered Arabs in Aspic re - releases on Karisma Records, carefully mastered by Jacob Holm - Lupo (White Willow, Opium Cartel, Solstein + + +) in Dude Ranch Studios. This officially licensed Arabs in Aspic merchandise comes as an LP on 180 - gram transparent blue vinyl with yellow marbling and is presented in a gatefold cover.

Using this album is as easy as popping it on your record player. Just place the needle gently on the vinyl and let the music play. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid leaving fingerprints or dirt on the surface. It's best to store the album in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This will prevent the vinyl from warping and the cover from fading. If you want to clean the vinyl, use a soft, anti - static brush to gently remove any dust. And remember, enjoy this unique musical experience to the fullest!
