Critical reception

Ryan Middleton in a review in the Magnetic Mag wrote that "Bob Moses build on their past work, keeping the pop songwriting and structures, but then taking things to another level sonically. It is high-energy with moments that will serve for the after-party of for a moment of brief madness at a live set. It doesn't totally change from their past success, but adds new layers to the discography." [2] Jonah Krueger wrote that "Howie and Vallance have taken a somewhat darker direction. While they most certainly haven't abandoned their dance fundamentals, several tracks let the act's other, more left-field musical influences poke through." [3] Isaac Martinez Trejos wrote that The Silence in Between is "an all-around phenomenal record from Bob Moses. 'The Silence in Between' is anything but quiet, blessing the listener with a colorful array of sounds and tones. It's that special sort of album- the kind you'll find yourself missing as soon as it's over. [4]

Blood on the Tracks is the fifteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on January 20, 1975, by Columbia Records. The album marked Dylan's return to Columbia after a two-album stint with Asylum Records. Dylan began recording the album at an A & R studio in New York City in September 1974. In December, shortly before Columbia was due to release the album, Dylan abruptly re-recorded much of the material in Sound 80 studio in Minneapolis. The final album contains five tracks recorded in New York and five from Minneapolis.

One of their children, Jakob Dylan, has described the songs as "my parents talking." In interviews, Dylan has denied that the songs on the album are autobiographical.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Loudness war</span> Increasing levels in recorded music

The loudness war is a trend of increasing audio levels in recorded music, which reduces audio fidelity and—according to many critics—listener enjoyment. Increasing loudness was first reported as early as the 1940s, with respect to mastering practices for 7-inch singles. The maximum peak level of analog recordings such as these is limited by varying specifications of electronic equipment along the chain from source to listener, including vinyl and Compact Cassette players. The issue garnered renewed attention starting in the 1990s with the introduction of digital signal processing capable of producing further loudness increases.
