    Jilted generation perhaps - it is dance music after all.

    But there's a difference between mastering for hifis (expectattion of loudness buttons, bass boosts, little to no sub bass at times) and mastering for clubs no?

    You could make a lovely balanced album that sounds great on a hifi and a little flat on a rig compared to other dance tracks.

    If you don't reference good dance tracks you could end up making nice sounding stuff that doesn't sit well in the mix with other club tracks.

    No not at all.
    Mastering is mastering really, except when you are dealing with the shortfalls of the final medium (ie vinyl).

    A good track mastered well will sound great both at home and on the rig.
    Hence, the prodigy, mixed (and mastered too I believe) at Strongroom studios, by a damn good engineer, sounds great on whatever you play it on.
    That is the whole point of mastering.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?
