Nrostov, could you elaborate a little? What is done at a recording session that leads to it? The thing I see, is the availability of software and electronics allow so much more switch flipping. Turn this up, punch up the bass, etc.
I bought the Mary J. Blige _The Breakthrough_ disc last year because I heard some of her stuff and liked it enough to venture out to the CD. It turned out that the bass especially was so pumped up I couldn't stand to listen to it. In the car where car stereos usually have a bass punch at about 100 Hz it was just painful. I sold the CD on half.com. I could just imagine the recording studio with the "engineer" turning everything he could up to the maximum. What ever happened to booze and pills in the studio?
regards, David
