Aelita [Blu-ray]

Description

Mando Diao s seventh album, Aelita, is the first ever popular music album to be released in Auro-3D® sound, alongside Stereo and 5.1 mixes. This revolutionary format is the next generation in audio, marking an exciting leap forward from standard Stereo and Surround sound by adding the missing Height dimension around the audience, surrounding the listener in a cocoon of sound and creating a natural 3D listening experience.The Auro-3D® alongside Stereo and 5.1 mixes mix was created by Ronald Prent at Wisseloord studios in the Netherlands and the album is mastered by Darcy Proper, 9 times Grammy Award Nominated and 3 times Award winner as well.The extra mixes can be heard on the band s Pure Audio disc, which can be played back via Blu-rayTM, or via the Auro-HeadPhonesTM mix of the album and any standard headphones. Until recently, this innovative format had only been available in professional digital cinema, but now the Auro-3D® format has been used to natively mix new music to give the listener the most immersive, life-like sound possible, creating a higher emotional experience.When given the Russian synthesizer Aelita, Gustaf and Björn found inspiration with the endless possibilities the instrument provided, from pulsating bass, to delicate arpeggios. As song writers the duo are always productive and they set about using the electronic sounds as parts to existing material and also created new song ideas. Björn and Gustaf are know to have an interest in electronic, dance and Hip Hop music and with their experience as DJ s and producers they brought a new dimension to the collaboration with Björn Olsson with whom they wrote the core of what would be the Aelita album. They continued to work on the album during the unprecedented success of their first Swedish language album, Infruset, during 2013 that followed the first album from the artistic collective Caligola. In late 2013 Veronica Ferraro started the final stereo mixing of the record while the band explored the visual expression the electronic and digital world could provide.Tracklist:1. Black Saturday2.
