@creativereader.bsky.social is a very talented writer, and it was inspiring to set her lyrics to music.
No need to apologise Rose - the world has been turned upside down - hope you and yours are OK

Wise words. Do you think the loudness wars have made it difficult to swim against the tide with streaming? I know the default settings for most streamers will normalise LUFS per track. Do you think CD has more opportunity for maintaining dynamic range (if the track has range of course)?
