The 'What Song Are You Listening To Now' Thread

[Vesper 29,040]

The CDJ-1000 (retroactively known as the MK1 after the release of MK2) was introduced in 2001. Featuring "Vinyl Mode" which dramatically improved jog wheel performance, the CDJ-1000 was generally accepted as the first CD player that could accurately emulate a vinyl turntable - including the ability to scratch - soon established the CDJ-1000 as an industry standard for DJs.

The player implemented a large touch-sensitive platter with a digital display in the middle that could relay information about the position in the music. Although this platter was not driven (meaning that it does not rotate by itself) like a turntable, the display in the center showed positioning information for accurate cueing. Also there was an orange cue marker that simulates the stickers used by scratch DJs. The waveform display gave DJs the opportunity to look ahead on tracks to see forthcoming breaks.

The CDJ-1000 (and its reincarnations) became a popular tool for dance clubs and DJs, and is currently the most widely used DJ-style CD deck in nightclubs. The player supported playback from CD, CD-R and CD-RW and implemented all of the essential features for DJ CD players such as looping and pitch changing in addition to less common features such as reverse play-back and turntable break-stop and start. It included the master tempo-function introduced on the earlier CDJ-500 & CDJ-500S models, whereby the music changed speed while maintaining pitch.

The CDJ-1000 is generally regarded as the first CD player to be widely adopted in club use. Before its introduction, few clubs adopted CD decks, either due to their lack of DJ functionality and overall robustness, or due to the fact that DJs still preferred the vinyl format, as most of the music they played was still far more prevalent on vinyl than CD media. The introduction of recordable CD-R and then CD-RW media discs and stand-alone recorders able to record music onto them facilitated widespread adoption of the CDJ-1000. Before this, DJs who wanted to test a new piece of music they might have made themselves in a studio, in either a club or as early promotional items to radio DJs, often had to rely on getting acetate discs produced. These were both expensive to produce and had inherent short lifespan; as after a few plays the disc would wear-out and thus be completely unplayable.

Simple Minds - Sleeping (Johnson Somerset remix)

Label:    EMI Chrysalis – none
Format:    
CDr, Album, Test Pressing, Unmastered
Country:    UK
Released:    1999
 

Original unmastered Cdr from EMI:Chrysalis. 5 copies produced in 1999 circulated at EMI headquarters. The album was leaked and the album became Simple Minds' great lost album.

----------------

Negotiations between EMI and Simple Minds started again in early 2003 to get Our Secrets Are The Same released - the 'lost' album from 1999.

After the successful remasters release, it was decided that Virgin would release the album.

Charlie Burchill spent the first months of 2003 mastering the album.

The originally intended artwork illustrated how Jim felt his hands were tied over the original release of the album whilst all control was lost as it was leaked to the Internet. The bound hands motif would reoccur on their Black And White 050505 artwork in 2005.

Virgin was unhappy with the original artwork and so it was slightly changed, yet retaining the concept of tied hands.

Release dates were announced and a budget CD appeared for sale on various retail stores. The release date was given as the 30th June 2003.

Finally Virgin confirmed that it would be the 5th disc of the Simple Minds - Silver Box.

Whist the artwork was prepared, and a catalogue number (SIMCD 13) issued, it isn't known if any pressings of the album were actually made.
