I think it's a sound that suits the laid back style of that song, that's all. However, it's harder to follow the instruments and likely to be less satisfying across all your listening.beck wrote:I like the “fatter” laid back sound from my first “Blue” clip. I find it more fulfilling in some ways.
I think musicians and producers could use that 'laid back' presentation for artistic purposes, but for us, on the other side of the fence, we're better off sticking to what's easier to understand and having faith that this will pay dividends across all our listening. I think if you start picking certain options to suit certain music styles, or artists, or formats, then it's not going to work out so well in the long term.
