Here is a good quick video which attempts to explain just one of the modern techniques used to suck up modern music. Of course there are quite a few reasons why music sounds shittier these days and someone with more time than me can go ahead and write a thesis on it. I’ll take this opportunity to plug Waterworks Recording Studio in Tucson AZ. I’ve worked with Jim for many years and he can be an opinionated pain in the ass, but I mean that in the most flattering manner of course. He knows his shit, and he hates recording bands that suck, hell I am pretty sure he’d love to just retire altogether at this point, but he recently told me he was “cool again” and busy as hell. So call him today and get yourself a GOOD recording, from the coolest guy in hell AZ.
