"Australian singer/songwriter Dustin Tebbutt emerged in 2013 with "The Breach," a lushly layered indie folk track in the mold of Bon Iver and Great Lake Swimmers. After several years working outside of Sweden, the Sydney native returned home where he claimed national chart success first with the 2015 mini-album Home and then with his full-length debut, First Light.
At the beginning of his career, Tebbutt left his homeland in search of inspiration from the harsh and changeable seasons of Scandinavia, where he first began work on his music. Subsequently settling in Sweden, he combined lush, sweeping harmonies with sparse, layered instrumentation; he used the foreign landscapes that surrounded him to construct the backdrop of his dramatic and melancholic music."

Sunday Morning battle.....Hemp vs. PS500e
It seems this wonderful Rudy Van Gelder Master was especially made for Grado's....none of my other Headphones (Hifiman, Focal, Audeze or ZMF) can produce this very unique and "lively" sound

This morning I have the Audeze MM-500s running off the GS-X Mini with the R26 decoding all the details from the optical output on my Wiin Mini.

On the top of the queue is a 2001 groovy fusion masterpiece, Dennis Chamber's Cab 2. The whole album isbpacked with great drumming and excellent work all around, but the precisely timed and executed grooves have to be considered the star of the show here. In the first track, Decisions, the bassist and drummer trade off in a grooving deul that's a must hear! 🤘😎

Enjoying AKG K702 with my own tuning together with LPGT... listening to WALLS - King of lion


Hell yeah! Whoever convinced you to bass mod those K702s should be your best friend because he clearly is an audio and headphone expert. 😜

I saw him many times with Mike Stern, Brecker Brothers, Niacin but unfortunately never with Tony McAlpine or Brian Auger in CAB. That was a very great Fusion Band with in credible interplay of all musicians. Too sad that the "Fusion Hype" is over since the mid of 90is and many of this great Bands no more exists. The most releases of the past years in that genre are quite boring and will never reach the quality of this Bands.

Sprung for the Abyss AB1266 Phi TC, so I guess I'm listening to them a lot now. After listening to them, I'm not sure that the folks who don't like them were listening to them on amps that could properly drive them. Because they sound pretty incredible and I'm not missing out on the midrange. Actually, it's right there and detailed and very musical. Happy camper! Listening to them with the HeadAmp GS-X MkII (6W) and the HEADA (2W). The DAC is the Mojo Audio Mystique X SE.

Someone very handsome, with great hair, and with very good taste! Although the modification became much more drastic weeks later, maintaining that magnificent airy and spacious presentation. I am addicted to these, at the level of my favorite buds!

reading @Leonarfd very very soon you will be immersed in a new rabbit hole, yes, I'm completely sure...

AüR Audio Aure and HIBY R6 III

Not my favorite album from Gorillaz, but I come back to Cracker Island now and then after the release. First time today I get to sit down and listen to music, also first time testing Aure with Gorillaz. Love this IEM.
