get an introduction i've often wondered why i can't enjoy some modern albums, even though i like the songwriting per se. it's the loud mastering. for instance, 'playing the angel' by depeche mode. the songwriting is good (actually some of dm's best in a long time imo), but i've never been able to actually listen to the album all the way through. when i opened the songs in audition everything made sense. take a look at the whole album is mastered like this and there's no dynamic range whatsoever. my ears get tired halfway through this album. now, i don't know if depeche mode are 'victims' of their label. it doesn't really matter who did the mastering. the album exhausts me nevertheless. on the other hand, take a look at disuzz. |

i always thought squarepusher's albums were a bit 'quiet'. then i realised they were well mastered. |

That video is excellent. I've been showing it to my friends for ages now. The loudness war is horrible. Listen to certain modern CDs and then a well produced album from the 70's and the difference is so remarkable. |

Be careful, though; a lot of well-produced albums from before the loudness wars tend to be remastered to suit the loudness craze our culture currently demands. There's the excellent remasters of The Police and Buddy Holly, for example, but then there are also the TERRIBLE and COMPRESSED remasters of The Police and Buddy Holly. The former sound wonderful - just like their vinyl counterparts - but the latter, unfortunately, sound just like a fucking Nickelback album... and are also a lot more prevalent in today's record stores. |
