Mastering...

[death on a stick]

I can't believe the amount of bad mastering that seems to be everywhere these days, spoiling otherwise decent tracks...

What the f**k is going on?

And in answer to this question, it's probably got a lot to do with the number of people knocking out tracks after downloading some cracked software, 3 months after doing pills at their first party. No knowledge, no respect, no talent, just wanting to get their name on a record. People are releasing music before they have matured through their own experience and practice.
