We are thrilled to announce that Little Cottonwood, Garett Brennan's first recording as a solo artist, is now available as a 96khz audio download. Blue Coast Records founders, Cookie Marenco and Jean Claude Reynaud, recorded Garett in a cabin high in the mountains of Utah, live and without headphones or overdubs. Many audiophiles will delight in hearing the sound of a real thunderstorm passing through on the song These Knees.
The proprietary recording technique, Extended Sound Environment (E.S.E.) was used through out. The original recording format was DSD (Direct Stream Digital) which is one bit recording and 2.8 million parts per second. Cookie Marenco remastered the recording to 96 24 files for the high resolution downloads using her Dynamic Mastering process which eliminates the compression used in mastering. "I have very fond memories of this session with Garett, his band standing by listening, Jean Claude and Nick, our Russian assistant. Most of these songs were recorded in one or two takes."
This weekend only, June 12 and 13, Little Cottonwood 96kHz audio downloads will be featured and on sale through the Artist Connex module. Additional CD Quality and High Resolution Downloads can be found rotating in the module. Blue Coast Records and Blue Coast World is one of the first distributors to have high resolution files available to international fans.
Garett Brennan, a Portland, Oregon resident, has been a favorite of our Blue Coast fans with poignant songs like These Knees and The Dog Songs on the Blue Coast Collection. You can find more of Garett's recordings in the Artist Connex module.
