Today my wife stole my USB stick that contains all the music i currently listen off my car, so i picked the 1st Bush CD i had there and listened to it. I didnt touch this CD in the last 5 years and i was analyzing how different from todays CDs (and other 90s) it sounds. Modern music sounds more produced, polished, ´tighter´, cleaner but at the same time it misses some of the ´band´ thing. You know, guys just rocking in a room!
I am not going farthest than the 90s because the modern production thing started there, as music turned more into a product. This thing is even more visible when you compare band that still exist or that are coming back today. Take for example AIC - even tho´ the music ressembles the old AIC, i think the production techniques REALLY changed how the band sounds. Its tighter, more modern, blah blah blah. But, as good as it turned to AIC, it may not work for some other bands (eg. Smashing Pumpkins ´new´ CD...too polished for their sound IMHO). It is possible that some of today´s bands that we dont like would rock if yesterdays production style was used.
What do you think of this ?
