šŸŒ How to Music Talk

Music Talk

We can sometimes forget that HiFi, Headphones, Speakers and all this hardware circle-jerking exist for a sole purposeā€¦

Listening to Music

Use this place to discuss your favorite bands, What you just found, what you started to hate because their recording quality was SH|T and damn it Queens of the stone age WHY!!!FFF.

I might throw a few topics up about Run the Jewels or those ā€œBrickWallHaterā€ albums that found their way onto demonoid back in the day. But mostly this is your place

Couldnā€™t agree more!

In fact Iā€™m currently working on a headphone design of my own and Iā€™m deliberately tuning and voicing it based on all kinds of music first and then by measurements. I bet many, if not most companies/engineers are doing the opposite.

Zeos, what do you think about setting up something for like a ā€œguideā€ for Music as well?

I know that sounds a bit bizarre, butā€¦

  1. Iā€™m sure lot of people like the genres of music youā€™re usually listening to (including myself).
  2. Iā€™m sure there are a lot of go to tracks that you have for assessing a particular headphone/speaker characteristic. Like Mombasa, right? :smiley:
  3. It would really be helpful for everybody to have a go to list of tracks for assessing particular traits like soundstage, imaging, dynamics, transients, etc.

Any Bjork fans out there? Her music often seems written for headphones.

Cool topic,

when i started listening mainly on Headphone, i understood EDM / IDM / Stuff like that the first time.
I think because your able to look deeper in the recording and get everything from deep bass to highs and air.
Now i really like listening to Electronic Music!

A the moment im enjoying the Album Amniotic by Monolink!!

This is the first track :slight_smile:
