Utterly agree with you Jeremy. I have to adapt from Samuel Johnson and say, 'if you think you're "tired of music," you're really saying you're tired of life'. Or something.

Bored with over compressed techno/pop style production maybe...but bored with music? I dont understand how anyone can be bored with music/sound/noise. I can't ever expect to keep up between all the new and all the old 'before my time' music. There is so much out there. And with all the tools we have at our disposal the biggest roadblock we face are the laws of physics. And with so many possible forks in the road the greatest difficulty is knowing which turn to take. But I completely agree on the multi channel audio needing to come into play more...and it is slowly...just not by techno/pop artists. Hi-Def DVD audio...24bit 96k...(or 192 if sticking to stereo). Then there is 1-bit recording... http://www.korg.com/mr/Future_Proof_Recording_Explained.pdf . The CD player and 16/44 format needs to find its way out. And while I appreciate and have a decent collection of vinyl there are just too many limitations to the format. Low frequencies always have to be mono/centered? How limiting is that? jeremybible.com
