Lunation 1209
Release: October 9, 2020
The Lunar Cycle
A lunation, or synodic month, is the average time from one new moon to the next. The length of any one synodic month can vary from 29.26 to 29.80 days due to the perturbing effects of the Sun's gravity on the Moon's eccentric orbit. In a lunar calendar, each month corresponds to one lunation.
Each lunar cycle can be assigned a unique lunation number to identify it. On Sep 17, we will enter "Lunation 1209" with the release of the Lead Single "Luna Nova". It's 59 Perlen's first ever conceptual EP.

Julian Reisner
Mastering
Julian knows very well how to get a little bit more out of every song and make the tracks look great.
He gave the songs on "Lunation 1209", as in previous 59 Pearl productions, the finishing touches and made sure that the listeners on all possible devices can listen in the best possible way.
That sounds unimpressive. But mastering has a tremendously important influence on the final result of the production.
