Here's a list of some, I assume new, British singers. I found the list interesting, but as if more often the case these days, the offering are only digital, and I refuse to download music...my loss, I suppose. I would buy some of these albums if they were available. In any case, some of you may find an artist here that you like. |

"I think you may be over estimating your powers of perception here." This shouldn't be about "my perception"..... Makes me want to bang my head against the wall.... The masses are being duped. This is so obvious to me, I'm kind of dumbfounded over why it isn't obvious to a lot of other people. It's not just perceiving it, but I react to it like it's poison. (About half the clips in the link I stopped five or fewer seconds after the singing started. That's how obvious it is to me.) "While AutoTune certainly is used in studios...it is not always." You're correct.... Not always..... But...... 95% of all Top 40 songs have been Auto-Tuned.— True Facts! (@VerusFacts) October 8, 2014

Every audiophile overestimates his\her powers of perception, it is the sine qua non. |

"Every audiophile overestimates his\her powers of perception, it is the sine qua non." I won't even argue whether this is true.... In a lot of cases, it is true... BUT......... There have been too many audio designers and music producers who believe because of that, they can get away with audio components of lesser quality and/or recordings with added processing, believing the consumers wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Heck.... Why are producers remastering Frank Sinatra classics with Auto-Tune? Because they believe nobody will notice. But a lot of people *do* notice... And this chicanery in design and music production wreaks to High Heaven. I am personally getting sick of these "overblown audiophile perception" claims.... Because I believe they are lame excuses to give compromised audio designs and overprocessed recordings a pass. I'll go as far as to say it's a major reason why music and audio have been on the decline. And will continue to decline. Two links below.... Same Frank Sinatra song.... One has Auto-Tune applied, the other does not. Would easily pass an ABX test for anyone familiar with the effects of the processing. The only other thing I'll say is I smile while listen to one track, cringe while listening to the other. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2HYxU9MCVo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsTQJxn_BC8 |
