- James Blake, when the Sub-bass sound comes in his voice does not sound normal anymore.
- Ronny Jordan ( 1993), here the Bass line IS the song and it is not presented as the main part
- Tom Mish, here there should be a clearly pumping bass and that is lacking
- Whilk & Misky, here they have produced a bass and beat sound that is like an "implosion" so instead of hitting your should feel "sucked-into" the groove.
- Nao, there is no "body "
- Benji Hughes, here the drums really sound like they're made out of plastic.
- Ibeyi, this is a VERY physical song with the massive deep hit, but it's lacking.
Would love to hear your objective opinion
I had a listen through your playlist and I am now even more convinced that your speaker placement may be affecting what you are hearing as I am hearing the very things you say are lacking. The physicality of a lot of those tracks is quite obvious and I was almost getting fatigued working through the list due to othe intensity of the bass lines! The only one which I agreed with was Benji Hughes where you said the drums sounded plastic, so I then went and checked it on my Kef Reference system and found they sounded plastic there too...so I think that is just that track.
