Again, according to Albini...who should know...

It's the artists that demand Autotune, not producers or record companies.
Here's another example: Kacey Musgraves. Her voice isn't powerful but it's sweet. Her first album was a major hit and put her on the map, and the vocals were not Autotuned.
Her most recent album? Heavy use of Autotune.
Her record company didn't demand the use of Autotune when Musgraves was an unknown, it sure as hell isn't demanding it now.
It's like the Bob Clearmountain sound in the 1980s. Clearmountain mixed an album for Bruce Springsteen and everybody else wanted the Clearmountain sound (which to my ears is overly thin and bright).




The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
