OK, first off, this may only apply to people from North America, as I don't know how European radio stations operate. Now, has anyone noticed that certain radio stations (namely top40, R&B, and hip-hop) sometimes play songs faster than normal? Nobody seems to notice this but me, and I can't believe they don't hear the difference, but it's definitely faster and at a higher pitch on the radio. I have no idea why they would do this, other than to squeeze in more time for ads. |

i know that 60s legend joe meek once said that he always sped up his final mixes by a couple of percent as they went down to make it sound 'more commercial'.. i dunno if theres any truth in it but i suspect there is. |

correct - to allow more time for commercials (thus more money) they also do it to play more songs - the more songs they play the more they get - more money its all about the dolla - holla (anyone who doesnt notice it doesnt know how to listen to music) |

Playing songs faster? Don't be silly. Everyone knows it's the rest of the world being slowed down. |
