Home Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

If you really do mean "musicians," then there's a couple of reasons.

1. Most musicians wouldn't know good sound if it came up and bit them on the ass.

2. Most musicians do not have control over the sound of the final product. Some do, most don't. The suits at the record company do. If they want to take a finely crafted, transparent, dynamic two-track master and EQ it to death before slamming it into digital clipping on a constant basis, then that's how it will be released.

I have a feeling, though, that you meant "record companies."

If so, there are two reasons here, too.

1. Most record company suits wouldn't know good sound if it came up and bit them on the ass.

2. They are aware of studies that show that while in their cars a majority of listeners will stop scanning and stay tuned to the loudest presentation.

Any good ones we get are rare, and will continue to be, alas.
