Swans

Live Barcelona, Primavera Sound 2011, 28th May, Parc del Forum, Rayban stage

Awesome 84 minutes set at Primavera's. Audience was both overwhelmed and excited.

This is the audio extraction of my HD recording previously seeded.

The audio has been extracted from the DVD version, which was encoded from the original MTS files, but with passthru AC3 audio (untouched).

Powerful word by Gira at the end, regarding the current Spanish kind-of-revolution.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

This is an audience video recording, first row, left side. There's an annoying focus light to the right, you'll notice it quite often.

The audio quality is limited by the built-in still camera mics, but it's overall A-.

PLAY IT LOUD! Automatic volume control sometimes is tricky and with such a sonic attack, it lowers itself quite a lot.

PLANNED FUTURE TORRENTS: I'll do it after seeding this one long enough, my upload speed is very low, so you'll need some patience.... And after these, I'll upload some other ones: some compilations (one per day) of the whole Tanned Tin festival (some songs from every artist except Thurston, highlights from Faust, Ulan Bator, The Clientele, Xiu xiu, James Blackshaw, and many others), a compilation of Barcelona's Primavera Club 2010 festival (november 2010, Eat Skull, Luger, Tweak Bird, Edwyn Collins, Lou Barlow, Twin Sister, Holy Fuck...), and a compilation of Barcelona's BAM festival (september 2010, Goldfrapp, Mujeres, ...). Lee Ranaldo poetry at Barcelona. Some Primavera Sound 2011 gigs
