General Information

Jonathan McEuen has been a friend of AIX Records since we recorded him with his father on the award-winning Nitty Gritty Surround project. His talents then became the focus of his own AIX project...released in the late summer of 2005. At his suggestion, he wanted to do a couple more tunes...this time with his collaborator and musical partner Jaime Hanna of Hanna-McEuen. The Brand New Opry was the outgrowth of that request. With Phil Salazar, TOm Corbet, Orest Balaban, Randy Tico, Mark Searcy and his father and brother, Jonthan puts new meaning into the term Opry. This is acoustic music-making at its best...the amazing Hanna-McEuen "Lowlands" is featured. That's the tune that launched the cousins to their current major label release...only here it's done acoustically as a live track.

About the Recording Approach

This recording is NOT an attempt to "document" a live recording of a small ensemble but instead an exploration of the creative process of making and recording music on videotape and using high-resolution digital audio recording equipment. AIX Records uses no EQ, dynamics processing or artificial reverberation...everything you hear is as the musicians played it. Both "audience" and "stage" 5.1 mixes and a PCM 96/24 bit stereo mix are included on the disc on the DVD-Video side. However, it is the DVD-Audio 96 kHz/24 bit tracks encoded with Meridian Lossless Packing [MLP] that elevates the listening experience well beyond a traditional CD or even a live event. You can chose to listen from the middle of ensemble and hear the sound of the instruments coming from all directions or place yourself in the "best seat in the house". The dynamic range and fidelity offered by the 96 kHz/24 Bit source recording makes this recording come to life.
