Flamenco is a collection of two albums of floor dancing and guitar showpieces from JVC: Flamenco Ole and SABICAS.
Even after 43 years, these recordings have not lost any of their fascination and liveliness. This recording is considered to be the "best Flamenco recording on the planet."
The sparkling transience of the Spanish castanets, the tremendous dynamics of the dancers' intricate foot dance, and the fascinating guitar playing by Sabicas were all well-recorded in this recording. It is real Flamenco in the truest sense and at the highest standard. It is a Flamenco classic.
The famous flamenco dance troupe "La Pocha Y Su Grupo de Flamenco" in Spain came to a restaurant in Ginza, Japan to perform in 1978. Japan's JVC Records seized the opportunity and recorded the dance troupe in the JVC studio in Aoyama, Tokyo. He composed eight pieces and made a limited edition of 30,000 albums, which caused quite a stir in the audiophile world at that time.
In this "HIFI Spanish Dance", the guitar tone is clear and splendid, the castanets are crisp and accurate, the stage is dynamic and dynamic, the low frequency is exciting, and the impact is super strong. This disc is personally engraved at half-speed by Miles Showell, one of the world's best half-speed engravers, at Abbey Road Studios, UK. And adopt the 1-Step straight plate processing process to suppress (One Step Process), effectively retaining the most details of the master disk. The half-speed engraving and 1-step direct pressing methods effectively improve the reproduction effect of vinyl records and can present the original mastering-level vinyl records in higher definition and higher quality. Although the production process is full of challenges and the cost is relatively high, these efforts are definitely worth it in exchange for higher enjoyment.
Flamenco, in its strictest sense, is an art form based on the various folkloric music traditions of southern Spain, developed within the gitano subculture of the region of Andalusia, but also has a historical presence in Extremadura and Murcia.
HiFi Flamenco is the fusion of two JVC albums: Flamenco Ole and Sabicas. Even 43 years after their release, these recordings have lost none of their fascination and liveliness. On the contrary, they are now considered the best flamenco recordings in the world. Sparkling Spanish castanets, tremendously dynamically captured footwork of the dancers and fascinating guitar playing make up the charm of this flamenco classic.

All About Ultimate High-Quality CD (UHQCD): Many years have passed since the birth of the Audio Compact Disc (CD) back in 1982. By use of High-Quality materials and a totally different manufacturing method, the definitive version of audiophile audio CD was born. Playable on any CD player, the Ultimate High-Quality CD greatly surpasses all previous CDs before it!
The Ultimate High-Quality CD (UHQCD): UHQCD is a radical change to the CD manufacturing process itself. The conventional wisdom about CD manufacturing, which had remained largely unchanged across the world for over 30 years, has been exhaustively questioned. Through this effort, the ultimate in quality was attained - a level of quality that is certainly impossible to achieve with existing CD discs.
The Ultimate High-Quality CD was developed through an effort to improve audio quality by simply upgrading the materials used in ordinary CDs to higher quality materials. For the substrate, a high-transparency and high-fluidity polycarbonate (a type of plastic) of the type used for LCD panels was used, while for the reflective layer, low-cost, common aluminium was replaced with a unique and expensive alloy of high reflectivity.
Differences in manufacturing methods: Conventional CDs are produced using the technique of injection moulding to form "pits" of data on polycarbonate material. A metal plate on which "pits" representing audio source data are formed is used as a die. This is called the "stamper." Polycarbonate is melted at high temperatures and poured into the die to duplicate the pit patterns on the stamper.
This method is efficient because it enables high-speed production, but it does not enable totally accurate or complete duplication of the pits on the stamper. As a melted plastic, polycarbonate is inevitably viscous, so it cannot penetrate completely into every land and groove of the tiny pits of the stamper.
The Ultimate High-Quality CD photopolymer is used instead of polycarbonate to replicate the pits of the stamper. In their normal state, photopolymers are liquids, but one of their characteristic properties is that they harden when exposed to light of certain wavelengths. The advantage of this property, that perfect replication of very finely detailed pits was achieved. Photopolymers in the liquid state are able to penetrate into the tiniest corners of pits on the stamper so that the pattern of the pits is reproduced to an extremely high level of accuracy.
The Ultimate High-Quality CD reproduces audio with greater precision and at a level that is impossible to achieve using conventional CD production technology!
