Temporary Circumstances

Gorgeous melodies, rich harmonies, full-bodied instrumentation. "A brilliant work."

Get ready for Temporary Circumstances. From the first note to the last, you’ll not be able to stop listening. Gorgeous melodies, rich harmonies, full-bodied instrumentation, and detailed recordings without compression or affectation. It’s as if you are in the room with the artists.

A truly remarkable work of the recording arts from PS Audio’s Octave® Records. Captured on some of the best microphones and electronics in the world and recorded in pure DSD on the Sonoma Multi-track recorder, this is a must-have disc.

We’ve produced a single pressing limited edition of 1,300 Austrian gold-pressed dual-layer SACDs with both the original master DSD as well as a special high-definition CD layer, playable on any CD, SACD, or DVD player, as well as a (soon to release) single pressing 2-disc 45 rpm 500 piece virgin vinyl run. When these physical media are sold out there will not be another pressing of either.

Do not miss out on this limited edition release of Octave Records’ second launch of its Master Series, available too as a download.
