What will be the first album you will listen to with gapless playback?

Good day.

I would listen Refuzion - Voyage on my Deezer Premiere gapless.

Everytime I feel lost in my life, everytime I feel like there is no tomorrow, I enjoy this finest release of my favourite artist #1 on Deezer 2020 and probably 2021 as well. He set me free and on my musical Journey this year 2020 and it was my greatest salvation after not so good 2019. Thanks for him.

He’s Refuzion, and he’s my reason to live 

The Things You Hated was freeing, it exactly tells a story of my life. In 2019 I needed to RUN.

Run to meet the sun after bad relationship which turned into room mate situation, and was full of drama, and reasons to leave. But I was indeed fooled for his love. Now out from demons.

Thank you so much for sharing your valuable opinion about gapless musical journey.

I will check some of these tracks out you mentioned in your post.

I don’t even know the genre, seems jazz or classical for me?

Right, it’s classical music, a very long opera cycle by a German composer. But it is a good example of how gapless playback is indeed necessary to follow the flow of the music, or else it gets destroyed immediately, e.g. between the first and second track of the Rheingold introduction which illustrates the river Rhine and the hidden treasure in it.

Great, great suggestions @bluezzbastardzz 

Once we finishing developing gapless on our desktop app, I want to listen to these two:
 

Good picks @Rudi and Im pretty sure that I will also listen to The Wall in gapless. Pink Floyd really needs to be heard as gapless.. And some live-albums from different bands.

By the way, do you have any timeframe for when the gapless will be added to the desktop client?

Thanks, buddy! @Samppa I agree, gapless is essential for them and all live albums to be fair.

We haven't been given an estimate yet but it's on the final bits of development. I hope to have more news in January 

I also know that the desktop app will get serious improvements in 2021, not just gapless. So I can't wait to share these things here 

My wish is for connectivity to be improved next year. I'm streaming via Chromecast built in and I'd love to listen to this album without gaps.

Happy New Year 2021

The White Album

Albums from ABGT (Group Therapy) and A State Of Trance.

From The Beatles? @DrEvil 

I'm hoping that we do @Placido09 

Yea Rudi, of course ☺️

It's a compilation from heaven @DrEvil isn't it?

It's already in HiFi so on mobile it's completely gapless isn't it? 

How about Chord V - Clockartz 😜🥰 

The classic Moody Blues albums - intended to be heard as a seamless flow of one song into another.

@hpguru check this guy out, he's got great taste too @Martijn.Keymis 

They don't make the same music these days, don't you think? @Freezer 

@Rudi we've introduced each other already 🤗 sometimes you find new soul mates 😜😜😜 isn't that @hpguru ? 🥳

Haha. Aren’t you as well waiting when gates will open and we can connect & dance? :D

This hard dance music is my life, glad to see other fans of it here!

I think it was only when Mike Pinder left the Moodies (half way through the Octave sessions) that everyone realised how central he had been to their aesthetic.

@hpguru  How did you insert the song like that? Visible and playable from within your forum post?

OK, finally sussed it after a few false starts. Go to album page, click [...] menu and select share.

On the share page, click the embed [<->] button to the right of [Copy].

You just need step 1: copy the URL containing an album code from the box (this is different from the social media sharing URL, which doesn’t seem to work in Community.

Go back to your community post/comment, select the [...] menu there, and paste the album URL into the box. Then click add.

A placeholder will appear, but it won’t look right and the play button won’t work until you’ve pressed [Save]. 

Depeche Mode's 1990 electronical opus “Violator”. Many fans and insiders feel this is their best album. Tracks six to nine are all linked up and two of those linkages are ambient pieces. No gappages between just about any linked tracks are essential to avoid too much disconnexion from the listening experience  💙

My first choice would be this:

And thennn:

Other famous albums affording gapless playback would be the first two by The Alan Parsons Project of course, especially side 2 of Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edgar Allan Poe with the The Fall of the House of Usher suite:

And of course I Robot, probably even better known by ‘70s prog rock fans:

By the way, I would prefer the Legacy Edition of this album on Deezer, but it is not fully available anymore, only the normal tracks from the regular album - probably a decision of the label or the artist himself.

And talking about The Beatles, side 2 of Abbey Road, right? That Super Duper Deluxe Hastenichgesehn Edition still exists on Deezer:

Maybe it’s time to bump this thread up now that gapless playback is available for everyone in the web player. 😎 Currently I am listening to the complete Don Giovanni performances which I had saved in my related Deezer playlist. So far Furtwängler and Karajan had to go (sorry, guys), but e.g. Klemperer, Solti and Gardiner will definitely stay. The latter is with the English Baroque Soloists, so using a smaller orchestra with instruments from that time period or built with similar specs. Deezer has a compilation with all Gardiner recordings of Mozart operas (Don Giovanni starting on CD 9), but also a version of the single opera:

As you have probably guessed it by now, I love talking to myself, so I'll bump up this thread once more to come back to my very first recommendation of Wagner’s Ring des Nibelungen conducted by Sir Georg Solti, because Götterdämmerung (the last opera in this cycle) has been released today in a brand-new Remastered 2022 version on all streaming sites, even in HD resolution above CD quality and Dolby Atmos where available:

So you can finally listen to about 16 hours of the complete Ring without gaps which sounds like a whole lotta fun, right? 😎 Don’t forget to make sandwiches and also provide enough beverages for the ride. Of course I’ll update my related playlist Decca Sound: The Analogue Years 1954-1980 on Deezer as well.
