The Distortion of Sound

[decibelle]

distortionofsound.com:

"The last fifty years have seen a striking decline in the quality of sound and listening experience. Compressed music, MP3s and streaming, have diminished the quality and flattened the emotion. Marketing gimmicks and convenience now take the place of excellence. The Distortion of Sound is an eye-opening exposé of the current state of sound starring Linkin Park, Slash, Quincy Jones and more. This documentary will open your ears and inspire you to reach for richer, more soul-stirring musical experiences."

This is why we do what we do.

Now if they would realize this began with the lowering of production standards of popular music and the loss of dynamic range in the majority of recordings starting in the late eighties, they would begin to see the real culprits responsible. The music industry, churning out cookie cutter music, recorded and mixed in shitty fashion, is what drove people to search for new outlets to discover quality content. The providers who appeared and thrived in the digital age fed the heads of music lovers everywhere, and when the hordes arrived for their fix, people accepted the lower quality delivery system because of the desire to choose the music they listened to, instead of what mainstream music industry deemed popular. The lowered production values set it up.....The lack of content buried the hatchet......

It has been making the rounds on Facebook and deema but I know there are lots of us who don't frequent either of those, so.

And Clay.... you tell 'em boy!
