Hi Chord .... Observe Sonu's voice in Chiggy.. It sounds very 'hissy' and its kinda drowned by the music...Likewise the chorus & Sukhi's voice in "Aaj dil gustak hain' ... AR has done many songs with many instrumental layers and the vocal treatment for them has been great. 'Shakalaka Baby' (Bombay Dreams) is an example.
Sure, like you said, each one has their own likings :)... On the other hand, observe the sound quality of albums like 'dostana ' and 'bachna ae haseeno..' . You can feel the difference. This' my opinion though :) On Thu, Sep 10, 2009 at 5:16 PM, ichord <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Wow, and I think the sound quality is one of the best things about > Blue....so rich, layered, crisp, uncluttered, bright, glossy.... > > Oh well, to each their own........... > > One point that I think you're talking about.....a lot of the vocals in this > album are processed, which is what may be bothering you.
