With our newest artist release, Conversations by composer, Gustav Hoyer, Octave captures our first full album of chamber music and the magic of a modern composer with classical sensibilities. Gustav’s compositions are original and beautiful in their rich tapestries of sound. The recording is perfectly recorded in DSD by our very own Paul McGowan. I hope you enjoy the blend of piano, string quartet, flute and clarinet as much as I do! 

Audiophile Masters VIII also features a blend of classical and modern performed by world-class musicians. We’re proud to showcase the beautiful Octave Studios’ Steinway grand on a number of tracks, each captured perfectly in pure DSD256. As a pianist, I certainly haven’t played a piano better than this one. The rich tones and clarity of each note are the perfect balance to my ear. These are great recordings that Paul and I had blast mixing. Everything was recorded so well, the tracks practically mixed themselves.
