I recommend everyone who loves music and hates what record companies are doing to it favorite this video. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

This has been bugging me for so long, and I could not put my finger on what was happening. I mean, it sounded compressed, but I didn't think it was some sort of global effort driven by improper motives.

@Cokoholicar deluxemastering[dot]com[dot]au And yes most of my clients specifically request retained dynamics. Not that compression itself can't sound good - but it's for the sound of it, not for sheer level. Often no compression per se in mastering. Keep in mind the mixes should already sound amazing!

Hi, where do you work. How can your services be acquired?

Great video, and it's such a shame that music is being ruined by this loudness procedure. I only have a few CD's that sound great, and rest are average, because they don't care about dynamic range, and sound quality. Thanks for doing something about it.

@Ozunreal i agree this should go out to all music lovers

Agree--people are taking it to far. However, analog compression sounds great. Also, people need to find a middle ground.

The Loudness War fucks up music its as simple as that.

Praise to you Matt Mayfield for calling BS on this degenerative fad.

This should be the most viewed video on Youtube

For those wondering what the song is that's used, it's Paul McCartney's "Figure of Eight" from the album "Flowers In The Dirt."
What's the name of the song used in this video?
