His ire this afternoon, directed through me and my notebook and my Sony digital recorder, was focused on the engineers of Silicon Valley, against whom he has been zealously waging war for decades. Silicon Valley’s emphasis on compression and speed, he believes, comes at the expense of the notes as they were actually played and is doing something bad to music, which is supposed to make us feel good. It is doing something bad to our brains.

Neil has had “get off my lawn” syndrome since the 60’s

He's not wrong. Rick Beato hates compression too.

Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard old Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow

His first album after starting Pono was recorded on 1920’s equipment. That’s the most Neil Young thing ever.

It sounds like you know nothing about recording, editing, and mastering.

I love Neil Young, but the Pono thing is objectively bullshite. The human ear is incapable of hearing a difference beyond a certain point.
