yeah you can say nonsense as much as you like nothing's stopping you...

To be honest I dont know what makes mastering good or bad but I can tell you that the album sounds very good and very clean. The only song that probably needed to be tweaked a bit was Dead Mans tetris. It was a bit muffled and not as clean as I wish it sounded.

But overall I think it was a great album 8.5/10. Loved the theme, loved the thundercat grooves as always. A few songs are a little too similar though which can make the album kind of drag towards the end.

you can't verbalize what you have in yiur head properly and it sounds like you don' know what you're talking about at ALL.

Saying the mastering is atrocious is a dumb statement. Saying I don't like how the mastering sounds/I don't think it serves the compositions is different and makes sense.

If you can only express your opinion like a retard don't be surprised people treat you like one.
>>
>>63544326
Correct. You have to be able to be better than the artist at making the composition to review it imo.

I never review music. I have likes and dislikes, but I never hold it against an artist as it couldn't be constructive.

>people who can't tweak an equalizer talking about mastering

>>63543255
explain this one

what about it is atrocious?

have you done analysis on the record and found spots with unnecessary high or low frequencies? are there instruments muddying others and bleeding audio? sounds fine to me mane, you might need to take a few courses on the subject.

The mastering was fantastic. A lot better than what I can do. The album is very clean the instruments are not muddled. There are no unnecessary extra noise. What did you not like about the mastering friend?

You are obviously the guy that i was posting towards because if you re read what i was responding too no one would defend you.

As far as the mastering goes. I thought the compression was great made the different cymbals very clean and distinguishable. I thought the EQ was well done and the left right was put to good use as it added to the theme of the album in key moments like in the song Cold Dead.

Why would I do that when you havent listened to the Album. And we all know by your posts that you have no idea about mastering or mixxing because you would of caught the obvious bait I put in my post.

You are the pseudo intellectual type. Also im on my phone so even if I wanted to humor you I couldnt until I get to my battle station

Would be a very impressive album for a teenager to put together. Where would they get the resources to produce an album such as this woth the live instruments?

i was going to respond to your irritating and undeserved condescension with more sarcasm & ill will, but then i was suddenly struck by the overwhelming realization that in another hundred years, you and i will both be dead. it gives me a cosmic sort of peace. i'm going to close the computer now, and though there will be a small part of me that burns to know how or if you responded, it will be drowned out by the greater satisfaction of taking another step toward not wasting my remaining days on earth mired in negativity, and taking that negativity out on strangers on the internet. peace bros

Is this what american /mu/ is like?

Also, you can hear a lot of clipping and it sounds very compressed. I know this is FL's style but I think he overdid it on this one.

What are you talking about? I was posting a Depeche Mode song go away

I think I found the mastering a little lacking at parts, just for my preferences.

Does anyone else besides this freak want to talk about Depeche Mode?
