Before we talk about the file format, we have to talk about the artist. Hailing from Minneapolis, Alexander O’Neal was a vital cog in the legendary "Flyte Tyme" machine headed by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. While the world went crazy for Janet Jackson and The Time, O’Neal brought a gritty, grown-man soulfulness that few could match.
As one of O’Neal’s biggest dance-floor hits, "Fake" is a masterclass in aggressive synth-funk. The FLAC file highlights the incredible channel separation. The panning of the electronic percussion and the sudden, sharp vocal edits jump out of the speakers, creating a wide, dynamic soundstage that makes it impossible to sit still. 2.
