notes"It’s because of digital technology, to put it briefly, because of compression, which means squashing sound down so it’s more malleable, you’re able to make the smallest instrument sound very loud. Everything on the radio has been a victim of compression and this belief that it needs to be extremely loud to be good. As a result, a lot of nuances in most instruments are lost, and those are the greatest element of the music."M. Ward, commenting on how Bob Dylan recently told Rolling Stone that modern records sound “atrocious. They have sound all over them. There’s no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like… static.”
