Name an album with better, more crisp production. You literally can't.Perfect speaker/headphone test album.
>>128767639>Name an album with better, more crisp production.Led Zeppelin IV
groovy ass album
>>128767639Moon Safari
>>128767639Idk about an album, but if you accept a single song, then I will name David Bowie's Space Oddity
>>128767639or Dark Side of the Moon
>>128767639
>>128767639Theres thousands of better sounding albums out now. Modern audio production is phenomenal
>>128772698name one
>>128767639TPAB apparently, people keep going on and on about "the production" of the album, I wonder if they even known what that buzzword means...
>>128772698False.
>>128772744Whatever i give you, you'll complain about it cause the timbre isnt the same as your shit ass generic album so you'll claim superiority over a completely wrong set of assumptions
>>128772744
synthesizer/computer music shouldn't count. It's too easy to get perfect and crisp. This will not be an interesting discussion if it's just a bunch of people posting their techno dance shit.
>>128767639PicrelAsk a more difficult question next time.
>>128772863rock music sucks
>>128768134Or this from Bowie, the production is extremely creative
nobody in this thread could give you the same definition of 'production' in music and that's where this thread and this board, fails
>>128767639Shame it's shit music. >>128770427>>128772907>>128773017t. Sex havers
>>128767639I prefer Discovery but this album is also very good.
autism follows:it depends what "testing" speakers/headphones/any other audio gear means to you, ie what youre trying to get out of it. what I mean is, if youre trying to get stuff to sound as good as possible, like you would if you were demonstrating equipment to a potential customer in a shop, thats one thing. if youre trying to genuinely test the limits of your system and find out what its weak points are, youd use something completely different.the former is easy, you need stuff with a detailed but smooth top end (the smoothness is more important than ultimate levels of detail which can provoke poor tweeters into sibilance or harshness), you want discrete and tightly controlled bass notes, natural recording of instruments and particularly the human voice, and most importantly you want as much space and air in the mix as possible. a good example from pop music is Kate Bush - The Kick Inside. some part of the replay chain has to be seriously fucked up for that album to sound bad.
>>128773793contthe latter is trickier because you need to test the music on various kit to find out if its just a bad recording, or if its challenging to reproduce and therefore a genuine test for equipment. electronic music can be good here especially in the bass, the deep extension and long duration of some bass tones together with how they can change instantly from one note to another is challenging to reproduce without sounding muddy or flabby, especially for small speakers, and the purity of synthesised tones can also make colourations (noticeable dips/peaks in freq. response) more obvious. an example, Future Sound of London - Lifeforms, on a good system the scale of this really pops and the sound opens out into a wide soundstage but on a poor system it can sound confused and indistinct. grand orchestral works are good to see how much detail can still be resolved when theres a ton of stuff going on at once, and solo piano is notoriously tricky because its difficult to record and reproduce perfectly in the first place but also because piano geeks are some of the most awkward, picky and plain autistic fucktards you will ever meet.
>>128772778For some reason with hip-hop production means the instrumental for some reason
>>128767639Millennial-core is so embarrassing. although Doin' It Right is a bop albeit
Giorgio by Moroder is by far the best track
>>128767639Steely Dan's Aja. They'd say so, too.
>>128767639I don't even have to listen to it to say that Noisia most likely mogs it.
>>128767639I usually test headphones with them changes by thundercat since the bass line is pretty good in that song
>>128770427Aja
>>128767639anythig from brian eno
