The Garbage Mix Of Justin Timberlake's Last Song
« on: August 02, 2016, 03:47:18 am »
Obviously I'm talking about the horrible production of Can't Stop The Feeling. Don't get me wrong, it's super well written and catchy (I'd expect nothing less from Max Martin), but Jesus this track takes radio mix to the next level. I assumed at first it was just a matter of listening to a horrible stream, but even in flac it sounds like a mud bomb.

When will record companies realize that spotify and all these other streaming platforms auto adjust song gain so it's okay to put out dynamic mixes that are a bit quieter?

When the EBU R128 standard becomes compulsory for all media platforms, then the loudness wars will end. But it will take a while though. Personally, I find a lot of current Top 40 songs sound overcompressed--for certain genres this helps the song, for pop songs like Can't Stop The Feeling not so much.
