Reviews :
“Perfect Day” by the renowned singer-songwriter, Lori Lieberman (best known for “Killing Me Softly”). Produced by LowSwing Records owner Guy Sternberg, the album contains Lieberman’s unique interpretations of songs by Lou Reed, The Cure, Tracy Chapman, Scott Walker and more, as well as two of her own heartfelt compositions.
The famous UK artist Fink joins Lori on a duet for the title song, Perfect Day by Lou Reed. Another duet on this record is Burden and Gift, a song written by Lieberman and Wendy Waldman, features another LowSwings’ recording artist, Alon Lotringer.
The A team musicians who were cast perfectly for this ambitious project and whose talents contributed to the excitement and authentic feel that is a clear part of this record are: drummer Earl Harvin (Seal, Tindersticks, Jeff Beck), pianist Doron Segal (Fink), famous Jazz bassist Oliver Potratz, Iceland’s phenomenal guitarist, Daniel Böðvarsson and on bass clarinet, James Scannell.
The record was mastered and cut to lacquer at 45rpm at Emil Berlin Studios and later pressed at Optimal Media using the unique “One Step Processing” assuring crystal clear transients and high frequencies on the record.
One Step. Instead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, one-step plating uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. One-step plating skip the regular father-mother process, going right to a single convert and then pressing. Though this dramatically increases mastering and production costs, it also assures each run is more consistent from disc to disc, with less noise, clearer details and deeper bass. Reducing production complexity to just a single "convert" disc between the lacquer and the press greatly improves groove integrity, diminishes non-fill anomalies and increases signal integrity from the master tape to your system.
