Djabe: Sound Still Life LP, 45 RPM
The big attraction of the 2019 Budapest HiFi show was the joint stand of Audiophyle Szalon and Djabe, where Djabe played live on a system containing high-end McIntosh and Sonus Faber components. The concerts, which were a great success among the audience, were recorded by the band with a 24-track analog tape recorder and made a 34-minute selection of the material, which was also cut to a disc at 45 RPM using DMM lathe.
With this album, the joint record project of Djabe and Audiophyle Szalon is complete.
