Yea i couldnt agree with you more there m8. Ramon Vink wrote:
I like the old stuff of the Orb not only because it is more based on good samples (loops etc) but also because it doesn't sound so 'clean'. This effect you see also a lot in other musical genre's and i don't like that at all. As if the nice old analogue deepness and warmth is completely flattened and transformed into digital harshness... There are offcourse nice sounding digital productions but i think they sound so nice because it is mixed and mastered on a proper 'old' analogue mixing desk. Whenever music productions are completely done in the digital domain u get horrible sounding shit. And overcompressing the lot also does more harm than good. At least that is what i think.
