A rare Joy Division recording has found new life thanks to mastering engineer Drew Crumbaugh. As SPIN points out, the man behind such reissues as The Smiths’ Rough Trade singles or Joy Division/New Order’s Factory releases has learned new tricks of the game and has returned to his pile of beautiful junk to give things a better, more insightful shine.
His first offering is a recording of Joy Division’s performance at the University of London, which took place on February 8th, 1980. The 12-song set focused heavily on 1980′s Closer, but the band’s latter singles — “Love Will Tear Us Apart” and “Digital” — also made appropriate appearances.
“They are spectacular,” Crumbaugh explains of his recent work. “Even the most hearing-challenged of listeners can tell the difference, and not just by minutiae. Cymbals ring, drums go THWACK and not ‘thwop,’ guitars slice through the murk.”
