Seeburg 1000 Mood Music Library 16 2/3 RPM Record M7A 7-1-1964

Описание: A fantastic set of Seeburg 1000 background music tracks, this video contains a complete side of one of the discs in the amazing Seeburg Background music series.

Start at 0:07 to get right to the music.

Seeburg put out a background music system starting in 1959, and it went clear to 1986, issuing thing special background recordings on nine-inch, 16 2/3 rpm records, with a two-inch center spindle hole. They were designed to be played on a special record player that could hold twenty-five records and play both sides of the record, rotating through them in a cycle. The idea was that you would have heard 1000 tunes by the time the whole stack completed.... which the average side is about forty minutes long, so eighty minutes per record. Twenty-five was more than enough to go the entire day and then some without hearing a single repeat. Seeburg background records were issued on subscription, and all of them were supposed to be returned to Seeburg to be destroyed after they were rotated out... yet a lot of them still made it to the present (akin to all those V-DIscs in WW2 that were not supposed to last past that conflict but are still around as a hot collector's item). You can expect to pay around 10 dollars per disk if you wish to own one of these records these days.

There was a set of "series" that offered the subscriber various "flavors" of music. The Mood series was made for restaurants and upscale establishments; it was as lush and posh as possible. The Basic series was a little more upbeat but mostly the same, made for shopping malls and supermarkets..... The Industrial series was made for factories, and are very upbeat and rather varied, by the 1970's we have Disco in this series...

Other series were developed for the "private" market, like the Encore series (Jazz-based, very classy), the Penthouse series, and all sorts.

Eventually, the old record-based system failed to be competitive with tape-based systems, and they took over. Now we just have pop music being passed off as background music now when we go shopping.

Feel free to ID the tracks, and do know that I did clean up the audio with denoise and click repair, so what artifacts from the record the audio comes from are very few and far between.
