Man, so perfect. I really want to balance this against sounding squished as you said - Stadium Arcadium was such a great example having the perception when the band got dynamically louder they seemed further away. When making something louder with compression, I always try to think about whether the performance stays stationary in my perception, or if it's moving closer and farther away. You do such a great job and have such amazing knowledge. I truly appreciate these videos!

just choose the loudness that's right for your track, these numbers are just rough guidelines, and totally genre and song dependant. LUFS is also just a certain way of measuring loudness, some tracks will benefit from this, others won't. If your balance is off, your track will sound too quiet or too loud. Learn to use compression, limiting, saturation and clipping in all its forms, and you will have no Problem reaching any loudness target anyways. it's better to be too loud and being turned down, than being too quiet, 'cause you won't get turned up, and if you will, you will get limited by some random limiter you don't know.

Topnotch! Slapped these on to my ongoing mix (drum buss and master), and it just sprang to life, thanks Kenny! 👍 I'd been messing around with other stuff (free or otherwise), and nothing seemed to give a "transparent" feel .. realized I was using these wrong. Probably helped that I had been away from mixing for quite a while, and probably came back with fresh ears.

The loudness is a big polemic subject. Not only the loud level but the "sound" of the music when pushed loud is what we are used to, so sometimes is ok to push to obtain this "signature sound" even knowing spotify is going to lower it down. Sometimes if you leave the songs at 14 LUFS they don´t sound as loud as the competition. I do not agree the loud war is over. However thumbs up to the video.

Streaming services will limit tracks that are softer than their reference so it's better to master louder and not aim for any loudness standard that a streaming service has. If anything, aim for a level that's a little louder.

Great video! I'd love your take on MeterPlugs' DynaMeter and Perception A/B plugins for also helping guide this process. In this case especially Perception A/B to get a better feel for whether the compression on the drums is making it that much louder overall vs it just sounds better because of the amount of makeup gain applied.

Anyone who thinks the Loudness War is over also believes in Santa Claus. We now have Loudness War 2.0. It's a lot harder to make loud mixes now. Loudness must already be taken into account when mixing and arranging. Pseudodynamic parts are built in and certain frequency ranges (depending on the genre) are lowered. Actually everything has gotten worse.
