Society of Sound (Bowers & Wilkins Music Club)

~ Label

Annotation

The Society of Sound Music club was a venture between Bowers & Wilkins (speaker manufacturers) and Real World Records (Peter Gabriel).

Subscribers to the club could download a release each month in lossless format, many in 24-bit. From 2010, in addition to the Real World recording, an LSO Live recording was also available.

The Society of Sound Music club ended in March 2019.
