So there really is no need for records to be compressed to be louder for the radio.
They've made radio versions for IML and Everyday which sounded harder as the radio versions. He's got a point in that Ice. I just do not know how to describe my theory in English but he's got a point in that I think.

As for drum loops, they can just as well be called drum computers. Loops are usually made from synthetized sounds, rarely pre-recorded acoustic sounds and are always construced on a computer, which also plays them back. So, no need for nitpicking there.
I agree about that.

And after being in the business for as long as Bon Jovi have, I doubt that they would **** up mastering or compressing the way you describe.
I don't think that's entirely true. They do **** up their mastering and or compressing a bit. His theory has got a few good points there too. The example he gives about HMU is good I think.

However, if Faith would've had the same mastering as Bounce, it still would've been a great album. It's about the songs, the melodies. Not about the mastering. Joey wouldn't have been a better track if it would've been mixed the same way as Faith.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
