    well it was a different vibe back in 96 as Blue Fear came out, also there was also not really a market for sample packs, soundsets or even template, so you had to get juicy with your gear and this lead to more experimental sound design imo.
    Something which might changed for today then? its just a guess ... of course i dont know really.

    Some people forget that music is and has always been one of two things, it is good or it is not.
    For some reason people think I dislike EDM, Trance and anything electronic. This is so completely incorrect.
    What I dislike is true for ALL music - Lack of melody, lack of creativity, lack of musical dynamics, lack of song development and lack of musicality. It is easier to hear and find the aforementioned statement in other styles because a substantial number of electronic music often tends to have the same 808 KD and basses. Some of the clever new Chill guys are really beginning to put a lot of thought into their compositions.

    The thread video basically states the human aspects. In ANY music this can be put in. Sometimes composers should try to say "that feels good" instead of automatically reaching for the quantize button. The smarter composers dump their human MIDI to audio and manually edit it rather than the computer quantization, aligning bits to their taste so they keep certain elements that might otherwise be lost. There is no hard and fast rule. It does come to taste, but pitting any music against another unless the music on one side is truly crap, is plain silly.

    one of my favourite novels. One of the few novels by any author that I immediately wanted to read again... Finish last page and think "I definitely have to start that again tomorrow"

    It's wonderful, indeed.
    But it can cause you even more pain than anything else when your similar taste and passion relate... to the same woman :winker:.

    This guy Rick Beato is right. Thanks to technology, it is no longer necessary to invest large amounts on a big studio and skilled musicians to produce an album. The "artist" don't even have to master a single instrument: the piano-roll editor from FL Studio loaded with a cracked version of Sylenth1 is enough to transform an unknown Tim Berling - who can't even sing convincingly - into a world superstar like Avicii.

    All this money saved now by record companies (negligible production costs; no material media; no representatives network; etc.) allows them to invest in marketing a lot more than before, and the massive brainwashing encourages the audience to be satisfied with mediocre music.

    If superstars like Taylor Swift or Angèle, whom the world today considers to be gifted, had tried their luck in the 70s or even 80s, they would have remained little starlettes, just good enough to host a local fancy-fair.

    I wish I were a gremlin. I would sneak into Glastonbury, turn all the autotune devices off and erase all the recorded lead vocals. A microphone would be all they would have. 'You're on next Dua Lipa... Have a great gig'.

    Yes, cause nobody sang out of tune before autotune.

    Kraftwerk are cool and never sounded like retards. You, on the other hand, manage to sound like one every time you speak.

    Without my smartphone, I would never have been able to read your comment - probably written on another smartphone - which makes me realize that we need to get rid of our smartphones in order to regain our freedom... :mad:

    Of course, before Autotune there were singers who sang out of tune. But at least everyone could hear it.

    Before auto-tune there were people that sang out of tune yet still sounded really cool when they did it... Robert Plant comes to mind... Neil Young, the list goes on... and of course there were also a lot of singers that could just sing and didn't go out of tune.

    And it's not that I'm down on Auto-Tune; it's just a tool it, can be used or abused, it's up to the producer

    You're right. These lyrics for instance don't sound stupid at all :

    Interpol and Deutsche Bank, FBI and Scotland Yard
    Interpol and Deutsche Bank, FBI and Scotland Yard
    Business, Numbers, Money, People
    Business, Numbers, Money, People
    Computer World
    Computer World




    Have you ever heard anyone who'd seen the greats of the 70s and 80s etc. say "Oh yeah I remember how out of tune they were" ? Unless they're talking about the singer being completely fucked up, no, you don't hear that.

    And yet almost every live album considered among the greatest have had studio overdubbing. Kiss - Alive! could be considered a studio album because of how little of it was actual live recordings, yet it always ranks among the top 50 live albums ever.

    Most live shows, especially back in the day, had awful sound for the most of the audience. Be a little too close to the stage, or a bit off centered, and all you hear is muddy, distorted rumble and ear piercing shriek. No way everyone hears when a singer is out of tune.
