I find it very interesting that most of today’s music is compressed. When we listened to Adele’s “Hello” it blew my mind that the volume stayed the same even when she was belting out notes. In comparison, when we listened to Aretha Franklin sing and she would change the volume of her voice and sometimes you would struggle to hear because it was so quiet and other times it was very loud. I also think that Frank Sinatra being a microphone singer was very interesting to learn about, and especially hearing him sing, and like you said he does not ever get very loud when he sings, and the fact that there can be a full symphony of instruments playing yet you can still hear him sing. I can’t unhear what I heard last class whenever I am listening to music I now notice the compressed songs and find myself hoping that at least one song won’t be compressed.
