I've been wondering that myself. I think it's a UK company doing mostly 60's Rock reissues, some good titles. I'm waiting for Fremer to get around to listening to them before spending any money.

My experience with MOV has been a mixed bag. Because they do not tell, there is no way to know what they are using for a source. I have had titles that sound fantastic and with others there is a harshness and brittleness that leaves little doubt in my mind that they used a digital source. In a recent post of mine I mentioned my disappointment in many new DDA reissues that have seemed not to have been remastered well, if at all, for vinyl. I have more than a few where the free CD that it came with it sounds way better than the vinyl pressing. Since MOV does not disclose what it is sourcing, I will more than likely not be making any more purchases unless there are reviews out there from someone whose opinion I value. I will miss those days of impulse buying, but at $30 and up a pop it's an expensive gamble I no longer find worth taking. Just my two cents. |
Here's a link from a 2012 Analog Planet posting where Michael Fremer discusses the various labels and what he could glean from them. http://www.analogplanet.com/content/reissue-labels-avoid-and-some-best-proceed-caution#lChAouWFUdChT... |
