What album had the best sound quality? I'm talking, shit

/troll

>>52927247
flaming lips was recorded in le 5.1
as for sound quality I think that's the expectation of any sound engineer.

>>52927466
How could that really be a troll?
Like, what person would actually fall for this?
I mean, it's a joke, s'all.

every Steely Dan album

Idk about best but this is great for 1984

>>52927525
Lots of albums are recorded in 5.1

And no, many sound engineers purposefully go for a grimy sound, and also a lot of them just suck and can't get a good sound if they tried

>>52927736

Back the fuck up faggot.

You couldn't handle my waifu.

Queer.

>>52927466

>>52927764
diff person here. what do you mean by 5.1

Beck's albums produced by Nigel Godrich (Mutations and Sea Change). Godrich is great with putting in really subtle and effective things that for the most part only other engineers would notice.

>>52927773
you couldn't handle a woman of that calibre, nerd

doesn't daft punk use microphones made in different decades, to make subtitles only they would notice?

Dunno if you're into ambient/techno but the production on Voices From The Lake is mesmerizing.

Also Objekt's Flatland.

My man, my man

>>52928321

|Yeah, Massive.

I won't despise the idea of EMI Records either.

About Bellucci? Well, she needs a good VHS tape with me.

What happens? When I am not at home, she can watch the video and play Base Ball with Kanye. :)

>>52928390

What the fuck are you saying faggot?

>>52928203
Agreed. All of Trent's material is wonderfully produced

Steely Dan - Aja

>>52928213
i heard people actually use this album to test out high-end systems

>>52928555
I chose that one in particular for the mastering of the drums. Recorded and mixed in the span of two weeks, no less.

>>52927247
Why is a picture of a woman with breasts almost tumbling out hotter than a picture of a woman with bare breasts?

Serious question.

>>52927784
5.1 surround sound

>>52928605
Cleavage in that particular picture.
Tight clothing is often way hotter than a naked body.

>>52928605
Lets your mind do some work.

I'd say RAM pretty much was made for high fi systems

okay album but the cover is terrible. It's not even that bad, just really uninteresting. I didn't even want to listen to it at first.

less is more for some reason

NO LOVE DEEP WEB sounds great on my momentums, i usually have a different album ill love with different headphones but death grips always sounds exceptional

>>52930449
It was a joke and yes, I know that >>52927918 misspelled "subtleties".

I always thought Replica sounded great.

it's somewhat of a meme among engineers that RATM's debut is the best mixed album of all time

Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms
Donald Fagen - The Nightfly

>>52927627
The Nightfly kind of supersedes Dan albums.

>deathtokoalas 4 months ago

>all these years later, this is really the only one of the band's discs that stands up as housing something more than bland disco and recycled bowie experiments (my life in the bush of ghosts is actually by far the best eno/byrne collaboration), but even this is a disc that you have to listen to from a certain ironic distance. the increased dissonance and rhythmic complexity embedded in the repetition sort of rescues it from the dance floor, but it still doesn't really manage to transcend it. it's more that you want to really like it because you can hear that they're trying, and that emotional response is blinding you to a more objective analysis. it's still ultimately emotionless, crappy disco - but it's reaching towards getting out of that funk and making an artistic statement....

Damn...

Haven't heard this but if you think they didn't know how to record in 1984 you're deluded.

>>52928260
>>52929598
>>52930175
Yes

Haven't heard all of these others. Here's some of my picks

Prince - Purple Rain
Bill Evans - Explorations
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On (pic related is the best recording I've ever heard by some distance. Vocals are very difficult to get right)
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Miles Davis - Nefertiti
Miles Davis... (yeah just pick one they're all great)
Wayne Shorter - Speak No Evil
Run the Jewels - ST (EL-P's a phenomenal producer and that includes sound quality and mastering)
Karriem Riggins - Alone Together
The Last Electro Acoustic.. - Miles Away
Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um

>>52927247
That's the fastest boner I've had in a while. Had to jerk off to retro Italian porn immediately. Thanks op for a happy cum.

>>52931462
Add to this Scott Walker + Sunn O))) - Soused. I'm listening to them now on my best speakers and it's pretty well done.

>>52928321
This for sure. Sadly the vocals are shit and ruin the whole album for me.

This thread is full of bullshit.

I thought the production on Skeletal Lamping and False Priest were more creative, but this one is, if at all possible, slightly higher in terms of studio quality.

people usually use that one rage against the machine cd to test out speakers

you might also be looking for stuff like ricardo villalobos or monolake but that's a pretty different question

>>52933334
Which one sounds better: the original or the remastered version? I've heard people complaining about the remastered versions

>>52933643
The 2004 remaster is complete garbage and the 2011 remaster is okay at best. The original is one of the best sounding records of the 80s.

>>52933747
