"Music is a territory of various elements. Time, synchronicity, pauses, tonality, harmonic nuances, dynamic variations etc. While time elements are generally fairly distinctive, some others aren’t. Recorded music always contradicts reality in the domain of perception. As a matter of fact, recorded music is somehow an illusion. An illusion of frequency fullness, harmonic plentiness, correctness of intensity and so on. Dealing with recorded music content is to bring as much as humanly possible perception close to reality. Largely, this is a mind game. Where, and when, perception wins, reality loses."
