Michael:
Well written and thought provoking.
All:
I think we are due for a Reference Session!
Any media, any system is welcome ..
As for music, my only suggestion would be to not go too obscure so that most listeners may already have it on some form of media in their existing collection.
Maybe the new Daft Punk album?
Any suggestions from ALL LISTENERS are welcome !
For those who haven't heard of "Referencing", it's basically the act of several people listening to a particular song....but listening very carefully.. Noting the soundstage, your own room acoustics, the acoustics of the recording studio or venue the song was recorded in, bloom, air around instruments..On and on... Be as detailed as possible, but keep in mind this exercise is fast and foremost FUN!
So, we are long overdue..
I'll throw out Daft Punk: Random Access Memories: Give Life Back to Music.
A second recommendation:
Roger Waters: Amused to Death: The Ballad of Bill Hubbard
I welcome of course a different title if others prefer... But these I find to be well recorded and and just fun to listen to.
Listen On!
Ron
The strongest foot forward we have as a community is when we reference, and share in the activity.
I'm going to go for the Amused to Death cut, thanks Ron.
