Re: [Orb] little B&T discussion
My biggest complaint about the B&T album is that you can clearly notice that the sounds are very digital and it would not surprice me if all of it is done with software/VSTi's. I can for sure tell the difference in soud quality (of synths used in the songs) between this and for instance the UBTUW album. It must be something inescapable, not to use any of the fine analogue synths we love so much. I mean, have a good listen to the synths on B&T, And you will see what i mean.. *sigh*... I can hear the same thing on the new album of FSOL.. :-( Are they all obsessed by software?

As far as i'm concerned analogue was either the best stuff or the only stuff for the job at the time. Way back when people didn't have the luxury of choice, and that's why music ended up sounding the way it did. Now that digital music technology's absolutely blown up and you can get any sound you like on a computer more or less, it's interesting that so many people are still lauding analogue as the bee's bollocks. It's a bit pathetic. Why people don't stop fetishising the technology and just write music i'll never understand. That's what separates gearhead from musician, i'd wager. boing, Kuz At 10:21 AM 7/14/2003 +0100, you wrote:
