This is a vinyl-rip of our 20020 album Enter the Mirage. It is created for those of you who prefer the warm sound of an LP over the digital files. This rip is of course not a substitute for the real thing, but allows you to enjoy a more true-to-vinyl sound and vibe, while listening on the go. Clicks and pops included.
It is recorded from the first press black vinyl, which is master by Hans Olsson Brookes at Svenska Grammofon Studion.
Enter the Mirage (LP/CD/Digital) can be purchased on:
In addition, the vinyl-rip is available (in highest-quality) as a free download for all members of The Sonic Dawn fan club:
