The Art of HiFi Volume 1: Bass, features 10 wonderful tracks each with musically satisfying low-frequency notes that will stretch the limits of your high-end audio system. Bass is the fundamental bedrock of music and Volume 1 gets it right in perhaps ways you’ve never heard before. It’s an extraordinary experience. Bass has it all, from the lowest notes of a massive pipe organ to the system-challenging extremes of a musical synthesizer. All tracks were recorded and mixed in Octave’s new state-of-the-art studios in Pure DSD 256 Stereo by PS Audio’s Paul McGowan and mastered by Gus Skinas. No audiophile’s collection should be without The Art of HiFi Series, Volume 1: Bass.

The Art of HiFi: Bass was put together over a few months of recording in Pure DSD 256 Stereo including a live performance at Temple Emmanuel in Denver. Artists featured on this album include award-winning organist Kenrick Mervine, father of jazz trumpeter, Gabriel Mervine. The opening track, Erase Me, was the work of an up-and-coming young composer and performer, Kaitlyn Williams who began her musical studies at Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music, where she studied opera before switching her major to jazz studies.

Jazz bassist Seth Lewis featured on tracks 2, and 8. During his time in New York, Seth regularly appeared at well-known jazz clubs including Smalls, Smoke, Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Cleopatra’s Needle and The Iridium. Drummer Michael Wooten‘s composition Rocky Mountain Rain is one to crank up the volume and enjoy. Wooten was inducted into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame twice, once with the band Zephyr and then with Leftover Salmon.

Pianist Tom Amend gets us down into the lowest bass notes possible on Track 9, World Wind. Tom has shared the stage with greats like Jeff Hamilton, Chris Potter, Christian McBride, Julia Dollison, Joey DeFrancesco, Groove For Thought, Deborah Brown, John Fedchock, Louis Hayes, Dave Liebman, Sheila Jordan.
