• RSD - CUBE E Dynasone 3EZ
Undeniably one of The Residents optimal work was CUBE E, but as can happen when a project covers so many different media types and recordings, there has never been the recording - the album - that brings the project into a whole.

Some time ago I had run into a recording experiment where the group had compiled an album that represented the various aspects of this very sophisticated and complex project. Unfortunately not only was the album never released, but the CDR they had burned of the project had become corrupted during storage and was not playable as it stood.

One thing that set this experiment apart was the fact that they had tested a new piece of software (new in 2000, no longer made) called Dynasone. Dynasone was a mastering program that used complex digital calculations to enhance and restore recordings.

I had long written off the collection of recordings as worthless. Until last week. I ran into a disk of working files used in the creation of the damaged CD. The disc was marked "Dynasone 3EZ" so I checked it and found pristine mixes from the work. Not all the recordings were there, so it was a bit of a disappointment, but I have attempted to restore the missing pieces.
-
The recordings draw on all aspect of the CUBE E era. However it is more than a compilation, it has an astounding sound that should should be heard on headphones or in surround.

I am pleased to announce the addition of "Dynasone 3EZ" to RSD for a limited time. I am doing it for a limited time as i am seriously proposing to Cryptic that this recording should see full release.

Additionally I am making it available for $5.00 as I anticipate my repair work reduces its value. But I am hoping that the Residents will revisit this collected project idea.

CUBE E project started in the late '80's.



• HEAVEN & HELL 25th Anniversary CD coming to Ralph eBay.
Cryptic will be observing the arrival of the Compact Disc into the world of The Residents with the re release of their first CD 25 years ago, Heaven & Hell.
