MINK says...

different strokes for different folks. in our studio, when we make drumnbass, we compress a lot. when we record a female singer songwriter, we don't.

it's similar to saturation on a photo, sometimes you want bright rich colours, sometimes you want shades of pastel. neither is "right" or "wrong", it's just another tool in the box which can be used for good or bad.

i agree that adverts being louder than the programmes is BAD but then, i don't watch telly, because the adverts are annoying at ANY volume (and everyone is speaking lithuanian anyway)

what i really hate is poppy "progressive" housey type tunes where the bass kick is so squeezed it actually replaces the rest of the sounds, every beat, with a long release so it takes a while for the rest of the song to come back. it's like "B...wwwWWWB...wwwWWWB..." over and over again.

when stuff is played on the radio sometimes it sounds bad because the radio station is recompressing everything again. that's why people do alternative masters for radio play as opposed to consumer release or vinyl pressing. you do what is appropriate.

and about vinyl... i love vinyl, even if it is a placebo effect, i don't care, it is still an effect isn't it. and noise is GOOD. listen to Robert Johnson recordings until you learn this

and about dynamics on the radio... they are totally paranoid about "dead air" (silence) to the point that they won't play a tune that goes quiet at any point. it would sound like your radio had turned off.
