I would assume he's referring to the fact that CD's are often mastered
with heavy compression, and so while they often sound loud and upfront
as all getout, they often have a noticeable lack of dynamics compared
to vinyl -- they don't "pop" like well-cut vinyl does. That's
something you only really notice in a club setting...I normally think
of "hot" as you guys do, but dynamics make the distinction between
good hot and bad hot for me.
Hot to me means something is running louder than normal, for example
when we played in a club in Sheffield we always had the Mids way up on
the mixer because the sound system and blind spots did a great job of
cutting them for some reason, so we ran them hot.
