    Lately I made a list of my 100 favourite records of all time (seems childish but I’m kind of obsessed with lists, can’t help it…), and I found 5 Alpha albums in it. The only musician to get more is Sole with 6 albums but under 5 different names and bands so I guess it doesn’t count. :p

    Both Ariel and Made In Space are available thru Amazon and CDBaby, but unfortunately not in high quality (at least 320kbps). I hate variable bitrates. Google Play offers its entire music inventory in 320kbps, and so does 7Digital (for the most part). I’d love to have both Ariel and especially Made In Space in 320 or higher kbps.
