This file set is from Dan Rogosa's master cassettes, with a short patch in space from his DAT recording from the same mics, SHNID # 165917. The audio has been pitch corrected to match the DAT.
The cassettes had a strange quirk: side A lacked treble and sounds muddy and distant compared to side B. After several transfers using different decks and azimuth adjustments, we concluded that this is just how the recordings are. Ozone EQ was used to brighten up the first side of each tape, but the sound quality changes noticeably after Black Throated Wind and at the end of the Drums.
Enjoy!
