Not unfair at all - nice to see someone explaining "how they feel" about genres of music and where they are going/gone!Hanz Meyzer wrote:What I actually wanted to write: If it sounds harsh to me, I can't vote it 5 stars, even if the composition, layering, editing, modulation is outstanding work. So I usually vote the overall sound and mood - which of course is highly subjective. Is that wrong or unfair?
You are probably not going to change your subjective ranking much anyway - I find my first pass at voting doesn't change massively on re-visits. If anything, I usually downgrade more than I promote. Listening to each "voting bin" for me reveals a sort of "much the same" sound or feeling/mood - and I guess this somewhat confirms my own voting habit!
