Neil Young once said: Did you ever go in a shower and turn it on and have it come out tiny little ice cubes? That's the difference between CDs and the real thing – water and ice. It's like gettin' hit with somethin' instead of havin' it flow over ya.
- raverbashing 4y agoFor real, that's a very "ok boomer" phrase What is "the real thing?" Vinyl? The other day the audiophiles were aghast when they found out their vinyls had digital intermediate steps. Yawn. The hiss and popping of vinyl definitely has a nostalgia aspect, but digital is much better. Get a good digital source though
- Kaibeezy 4y agoMany musicians play musical instruments and sing and so forth.
- tinus_hn 4y agoFyi the material records are made from is called vinyl.
- raverbashing 4y agoThanks, fixed - this is a confusing word :)
- e-clinton 4y agoDid you really just ask what the “real thing” is? It’s live music.
- hakfoo 4y agoI'd argue that in some cases, the live show is not the "reference form" of the a sing. It might be the product of multiple sessions mixed, or a pair-up they can't do at the live show.
- synu 4y agoPresumably the real version of recorded music is live music.
