It is famously also the first record ever made entirely from samples of other people’s records – with a particularly broad array of sources used, many mined from the catacomb-like basement under the artist’s favourite record store in Sacramento, which has long since closed its doors. This is the store pictured by photographer B+ on the album cover and in many other shots included in the package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"st__content-block st__content-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album UMC are proud to present this Abbey Road Half Speed Mastered edition. ‘Half-Speed Mastering’ is an elaborate process whereby the source is played back at half its’ normal speed and the turntable on the disc cutting lathe is running at 16 2\/3 R.P.M. Because both the source and the cut were running at half their “normal” speeds everything plays back at the right speed when the record is played at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"[PIAS] Recordings Catalogue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58200139104636,"sku":"5400863207762","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/9763\/5678\/files\/int-6cdc21913f2ef9bb77cb1a92c52e7ed5-frcdybue.webp?v=1794575630","url":"https:\/\/offthebeatentracks.co.uk\/products\/dj-shadow-preemptive-strike-new-2lp","provider":"Off The Beaten Tracks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
