that sounds crappy,
>all the labels want the same crappy sound.
Someone said to me years ago about the industry: "if the wrong guy
stopped short on Hollywood, 50,000 noses are gonna go right up
a lot of behinds"
So bugger 'em. I say go your own way. Have a sound all your own
and make them play catch-up.

WE make the damn market. Following trends leaves you always
behind.

And there's nothing wrong with it. Yet you will still have clients
where great sound will rock their world.

Bingo.
