Yes Prometheus, I know how you think about this and it is perfectly fine (we had this kind of convo in the past) and I respect that. Actually, I kind of think a bit similar way, and I have said in some place that "reviewing is not my thing". However I have listened some opposite opinions too, and it seems many musicians/producers would like to hear also how people have experienced their music. I understand this when musicians have spent lots of time and perhaps money to do their album, and all they got is just silence/or almost that. So this was dedicated especially to them. I want also say that this was directed to those who felt they would like to participate with sharing their opinions. I admit I was expecting something that was not necessary, and it was a bit let down (like I said I was a bit naive).

Of course, there is no such thing as "ultimately best" or "worst" because in the end it is matter of taste and opinion (okay, some kind of generalizations are possible but in the end there is not such things.) Also techincal points are important to someone, while someone else thinks it doesn't matter, someone might like some special effects and someone else thinks there are too much effects.

This seems to be too serious issue, I'd like this to be more fun than "live or die" thing - as it seems to be. I was not THAT serious with this feedback issue at all until I got a bit disappointed how it turned around. Very Happy

So, there is a part in me that thinks in the similar way than you - that the reviewing is meaningless in a way, but other part says that "lets direct our experiences to them who deserves it".

It was not meant to be "all have to be great" but "what you think". I won't take a stand if someone is honest or not - and none shouldn't. In the end everyone writes how they feel, if at all, and thats it. Smile

@Prometheus, yes, that was almost shocking (becouse of exact description *grin* )for me too. ... its very hard to describe music if its also very hard to describe feelings and emotions. Atleast you managed to describe THAT in words.

Just making some numbercrunching now...

When I listen music, it creates visions/pictures/feelings, those will take long time before it creates thoughts and words at the end. (I amused myself already a long long time ago this way which become daydreamings another form).

When reading, or actually creating some visions itself, it creates feelings and the result is music too.
So, reading something or getting some pictures and so recording this to music.
Playback and listening, But -error- I dont get the same visions and thoughts which gave me that melody in the beginning. More is associated the time when I actually made that track and the feelings which I had back then during last arranging.

This kind of music which I created during spontan jamming session while being in my own thoughts, gives again the __same__ feelings and emotions when listening that again and only when it was recorded live (I mean that has "higher conversion quality"). But just doing a little improvement and the origin associations are lost.

Also, so many will get different music from the same story/book/picture...

So it explains a lot that while I read someones review with track-by-track list and listen that album at the same time, then I get surprise "thats not the album reviewed here".

And there are many things made "inspired by"... whats that all? In music someone means other music styles, but what about if something is inspired by specific event or a book? Can listener distinguish it in the long run so that pointing exactly whats all about (including to point very close the track name if having no idea (talking about instrumental music of course) )...?
