The exciting thing is that removing barriers to popularity make talent and persistence more and more important.<p>(barriers like the cost of extremely polished production, which is nearly free compared to 30 years ago, and access to an audience, which this article is more about, where there are fewer and fewer gatekeepers)

I just could not listen her album, it is so overcompressed [1], this is maybe more annoying by using only few simple (extreme loud) instruments and her voice, like the whole thing is banging in my brain, so stopped before I got headache.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;dr.loudness-war.info&#x2F;album&#x2F;view&#x2F;162536" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;dr.loudness-war.info&#x2F;album&#x2F;view&#x2F;162536</a>
