An End and A New Beginning

I was so tired for a while. Didn't think about it recently. But when I look back, I wonder why how I survived after all.

As an electrical engineer, I faced too many troubles since the beginning of 2009. 02 generators suddenly broken down, burned out both stators and rotors, 01 other gen. failed after 03 non-working-years unexpectedly. And many motors of all kinds needed to be overhauled due to their mainternance time. All the technical details, drawings, standards to follow and take care of. The result was that I had to travel back and forth among Saigon, Hanoi, Vung Tau a lot. I went to Hanoi on business nearly once a month from Feb through Sep. At first it seemed interesting, but after sometimes, I was disappointed in my Hanoi musician friends' spirit. Without their leader, they almost lost their faith and seemed to give up music. Besides that, my business in Hanoi was not always smooth, dealing with and supervising the contractor were like playing games. It's hard to guide them to follow our company's Western standards. And a lot of paper works and payment receipts... Yep, works'll never end.

With Microwave, I achieved a big step with the 2nd album - "Time". The production phase was interesting and fun, but sometime it's a pressure to finish it on time. Lots of experiments, re-tracking and re-mixes to fit the sonic to every members' tastes. Yes, it's fun but it took more than 1 year already dudes. And I'm glad that it got some success recently :D In 2009, I was so crazy about musical gears, spent a lot to get 02 Mesa Boogie amps, a Paul Reed Smith Signature guitar, and a lot on my Protools studio gears. Have you ever heard of G.A.S.? Yep, the Gear-Aquisition-Syndrome hahaha :)) Now I need a lot of acoustic treatments to shape the studio room sound. But right now, I could start composing and producing again :D

And this year ends with 02 big events. One is my wedding, and the other is the sudden death of our oil rig's captain due to a block vein in his head. He was active and fun in the morning meeting, but passed out so fast in the early evening out there, in the middle of the sea. Both of these happened so fast. The wedding assigned a new role to me, and the captain death reminds me that life is unpredictable. We just got one chance to live, one chance to do what we want. So dudes, let's live up to the fullest!

I had no idea of what would happen in 2009. But now I could see some things to do in the next 2010 and I'll keep them to myself.

So see you guys in a Happy New Year! Best wishes to you and your family!

Recovering

I always know that each time I had trouble with my DAW, when I had to re-install everything, I'd get a powerful system again, with the best of the best toys to suit my work flow.

This time I still get some little good news upon the rest, that I've just lost the OS and some games, some "movies" :"> . All the projects' data are still safe in the other external HD, including the new Microwave Time album.

The previous time was not as lucky. Everything related to Microwave debut album "Escape" was totally destroyed. I still keep that harddisk, hope that someday somebody would rescue it, and I definitely do some remix and remaster things.

2 big shows coming this weekend. Haaa, so busy!

Why mp3s sound bad, and how to hear it

2044815182.jpg



I hate mp3, and this post will tell you why.

DO NOT read this post if you have a large collection of mp3s, enjoy listening to them and can’t hear any problems with them, because it’ll ruin them for you !

There’s been plenty written on how mp3 works, and why lossy compression sounds worse than uncompressed audio in general. My aim here is to demonstrate how mp3 sounds bad, for all the people who keep telling me there’s no difference.

I’m going to give you clear guidelines and examples on what to listen for and the negative effects of mp3, but there’s no going back - once you can hear the problems, you’ll never stop hearing them.

This isn’t limited to audiophiles, or “golden ears”, by the way - in my opinion anyone can hear this stuff, with a few pointers.

So seriously, unless you’re prepared to start using FLAC or AAC (which means buying an iPod) - stop reading now !

Still here ? Good.

First, I need to make this clear - I have nothing against lossy audio or data compression in itself - I do most of my casual listening on an iPod, using 128kbps AAC files - they sound fine. Not as good as the original CDs, obviously, but OK. And yes, I’m well aware that AAC is just a more advanced version of mp3. But the fact is that mp3 has fundamental limitations - even at higher bitrates.

Next - I’m also a pragmatist. mp3 is a temporary phenomenon, just like AM radio, cassettes and CDs. In the long run, none of those have killed music, and neither will mp3, or lossy compression in general. So, why the rant ?

Because people keep saying mp3 sounds great, or “indistinguishable from CD” and it’s just not true.

mp3 isn’t good enough

It doesn’t matter what encoder you use, it doesn’t matter what settings you use or what pre-processing you apply - mp3 just doesn’t cut it. AAC and later, more sophisticated encoders use more advanced encoding methods, and sound better to varying degrees, but mp3 just FAILs.

How does it fail ? That depends a little on the encoder being used, but some of my own pet hates include:

mp3 sizzle - the artificial, unnatural swirling metallic noises that sound like someone’s added chime bars to everything, or there’s a mosquito buzzing in your ear. Some people actually say we prefer these noises in mp3s - I say bullshizzle !
Added distortion - Yet another side effect of the so-called Loudness Wars. mp3 encoders rarely include any headroom for the encoding process itself, so the added processing pushes the music even further over the limits, generating inter-sample peaks and adding even more distortion in the process
Flat, two-dimensional sound mp3 works by throwing away musical information that we supposedly can’t hear - up to 90% of the original information, at 128kbps. That means all the subtle, delicate stuff, like ambience, space and realism. So a lush, three-dimension original is reduced to a flat, cardboard replica of itself
Mushiness All but the very best mp3 encodes just sound fuzzy, muddled and - well, mushy !


Hear for yourself

Don’t take my word for it - here are some examples. First, a truly nasty 128kbps mp3 example, from a Deep Purple live album I mixed a while back:


(Before anyone jumps on me, I’ve heard even a 256 kbps mp3s sounding like this - I’ve just used a low quality version to make the point.)

If that doesn’t sound too bad to you at first, try this - I’ve filtered the file to highlight the high frequencies. You can hear the problems most clearly when the vocals start:


Some people describe this effect as “sizzle”, or “swirlies”. It’s not just that I’ve removed all the bass, what I’m pointing out is the unatural bubbling, twinkling “chime-bar” type sound, or as my friend and fellow mastering engineer Nick Watson once called it, the “flocks of tweeting ultrasonic birdies”. It also reminds me of someone crinkling up tin foil !

Once you’ve picked it out, listen the first version again. Doesn’t sound so nice now, does it ? Can you ignore the swirlies, now you know they are there ?

Now download and listen to the original file:

‘Talk About Love - Excerpt’ - 5 MB WAV file

Listen to the clarity, punch, and bite of the WAV, compared to the swirly, soggy mess of an mp3. Which one do you prefer ?

The loss of depth, richness and three-dimensionality is more subtle side-effect, but just as unfortunate. Here’s a snippet of a recording I did for the brilliant Hans Koller, featuring Christine Tobin on vocals:


(This is a much better mp3 encode, with far fewer heinous swirlies. But still…)

Here’s the WAV version:

‘The Great Bear And The Small - Excerpt’ - 11 MB WAV File

Don’t expect the difference here to leap out at you straight away, it’s more a case of feeling it - listen to the swirls of the harp from 30 seconds in, listen to the piano and Christine’s voice - on the wav file, there’s a warmth, and a depth, and a sparkle that in the mp3 has just gone.

Listen to the wav several times over, then switch to the mp3. Do you honestly feel it sounds as good ? The mp3 is OK, but it’s just… meh. I’m not drawn in, my attention wanders, it doesn’t move me.

Something essential has been lost, and you can’t get it back. And once you’ve heard that loss, even cranking the data-rate up doesn’t help. The only solution is a more advanced format, or lossless files.

Try listening to the mp3s in your music collection. Go back and compare them to the CDs you ripped them from.

…Sorry.



My comment: This is what I recognized long time ago. Since the day I started to listen to MP3 files in the 90s, I felt something wrong with them, but couldn't tell what is it. Till now, even there're some foreign producers can't listten to and don't accept the fact that there're differences between WAV and MP3, or 44.1kHz and 96kHz. That's why nowadays there's less and less high sonically quality music, as long as people keep listening to crappy music TV channels, or desktop speakers.

These days, it seems that quantity and pace are more demanded than quality in every aspects of life. People cannot make choice of what they want to listen or watch. The MEDIA industry is doing that for them. Feeding all the garbage day by day surrounding our senses.

Yup, we couldn't change anything, just try to survive and keep our own tastes. Try to keep it high, dudes ;)

Microwave Discography - English version

As many musicians, Microwave always has lot of dreams and passion to share our own music to everybody.

It started from the ealier days that young dudes were eager and fun to take part in high school music competitions. At that time, each of us made a lot of friends and join in many music groups formed from different schools. Within those relationships, in the year of 2001, Lĩnh was invited to play in a Beatles-and-CCR cover band - The Weekend Together. Lĩnh met Trung, the funny drummer there. They were quickly sync. together and enjoyed trying out many music styles since. When this band parted, both of them contacted many other friends to form a new band. The dudes from high school time joined one after another, they was excited to rehearse at the first time, then after a while, they left by personal reasons. Players in-n-out, changing of personal abilities to play, characteristic and personal tastes conflicts..etc. all led to a common situation of forming-then-parting of many young bands in Saigon. 

The band was named Microwave in that chaos time, and most of the members were students of different technical universities. The idea was very simple. The rock show is considered a huge oven, and within that space, Microwave will be the strongest waves to resonate with the audiences burning out the passion for music, twisting hard the atmosphere and rocking harder than ever. Yet very simple and passsionate with deep desire.

Naming the band was difficult, but the thing that was even tougher was determining our own Microwave music style. We covered many songs that were considered "rock classic of all time". Slow rock, Heavy metal, Rock ballads tunes of Guns'n'Roses, Metallica, Pantera, SaigonRock, White Lions, ..etc. The joy of perfectly covering those songs didn't last long. We're wandering around and felt that we need to do something that's totally different. "Higher".

Then in 2002, there's a big change in the band. This time, Microwave was more stable and stronger. Tùng guitarist from Cánh Chim Biển, Tuấn bassist from Mad Mosquitoes, Hải vocal found on RockFanClub online forum, Khanh - joined the band as a rapper, Thuấn keyboardist from funny old time of high school. Microwave then had 7 members.

Discovering the new Nu Metal genre with big representatives like LinKinParK, KoRn, Limp Bizkit was a great turn to form our own style. Despite the fact that Limp Bizkit and KoRn were very famous in the early 90s, but within the lack of general music information at that time (turtle-speed internet, no cable TVs and online music forums..etc.) we discovered many Nu Metal bands almost at the same time. The power, contemporary and modern of the mixing of many genres together that created a new genre, a new attraction, opened up a new vision and inspired us to compose our own music within the materials and experiments that we had been experiencing.

At the same time of covering Nu Metal songs, Microwave started to write their own songs. At first, Nu Metal in general and Microwave in particular had to face off many restrictions and bad words because of the dare to go against the "majority-win rule". But bit by bit, with our confidence and steady performance in any rock shows, Microwave persuaded and gained the support of many fans. That encouraged us a lot, and pushed us to make our dreams come true.

And we made it. On 25th December 2005, Microwave was proud to present the debut album "Lối Thoát" (means The Exit) to Vietnamese music scene. It's a achievement of a long long time with many challenges. Within long time experiments and  our own musical taste, we composed, edited, recorded and produced this album by ourselves. Eight months of hard-working in the studio, with tired times, conflicted ideas, facing finacial problems, personal things..etc.., this album was nearly impossible to finish. Then came the big change. Thuấn, Hải left the band, Khanh became the lead vocal. Microwave got 5 members left and fixed to this day. Those difficulties seemed to hold us back, but it's so strange that the harder it made, the more inspired we had to compose.   

"Lối Thoát" has been gaining people's support bit by bit. From musician dudes with "Ước Mơ" (Dreams), children with the strange-but-fun "Sói" (Wolves), anti-war with "Trái Tim Dũng Cảm" (The Brave Hearts) and "Chiến Tranh" (Wars), and especially the song "Tìm Lại" (Return) gets the deep sympathy and big strong support ground from everybody. 

All of that were and will always be the big encouragement and support to Microwave. We were very happy and surprised to receive the wild wild cheers from the audiences when thoroughly touring around many provinces from the North to the South of Vietnam in the large-scale and dramatic rock concerts Rock Storm. All of that encouraged us to produce our second album "Thời Gian" (Time).

In this album, Microwave will develope a new musical style with a new meaning. All the previous waves will be more active, erasing the border between sound and light, finding the way to new creativenesses over ordinary limits. Sound waves or Light waves, all will be a brand new Microwave. Microwave of "Thời Gian".

Official news on this album "Thời Gian" will be updated on time because it's gonna be released soon.

Cheers!

Microwave.

Microwave Discography

Cũng như nhiều anh em chơi nhạc khác, Microwave luôn có nhiều đam mê và ước mơ chia sẻ âm nhạc của mình đến với mọi người.

Mọi chuyện bắt đầu từ những lần háo hức và vui vẻ dự thi những cuộc thi văn nghệ ở cấp THPT. Nơi đó từng thành viên chúng tôi đã làm quen và chơi chung với nhiều anh em chơi nhạc từ các trường khác nhau. Từ những mối quan hệ đó, đến năm 2001, Lĩnh được rủ rê vào chơi cho một band nhạc chuyên cover The Beatles và CCR - band Weekend Together. Tại band này, Lĩnh đã gặp Trung, tay trống vui tính. Cả hai khá ăn ý khi chơi chung và cùng thích thử nghiệm tập tành chơi nhiều thể loại khác nhau. Khi band này tan rã, cả hai đã cùng nhau liên lạc những người bạn khác để thành lập 1 band mới. Những người bạn cũ thời THPT lần lượt tham gia, cũng hăng hái tập tành, rồi sau 1 thời gian thì rời nhóm vì lý do cá nhân.  Thay đổi nhân sự, điều kiện chơi nhạc thay đổi, xung đột cá tính, sở thích... dẫn đến việc hăng hái thành lập rồi lặng lẽ tan rã cũng là tình hình chung của nhiều band nhạc trẻ ở Sài Gòn.

Tên gọi Microwave đã ra đời trong thời gian đó, và hầu hết các thành viên thời điểm đó là sinh viên khối kỹ thuật. Ý tưởng rất đơn giản. Show rock là một cái lò vi sóng to, và trong đó Microwave sẽ là những tia sóng mạnh mẽ cùng cộng hưởng với khán giả đốt nóng đam mê âm nhạc, khuấy động không khí và cùng cháy hết mình, rock hết mình. Rất đơn giản và cuồng nhiệt, đam mê.

Tên gọi đã có, nhưng điều còn khó hơn là việc định hình một phong cách chơi nhạc của riêng Microwave. Chúng tôi cover khá nhiều tác phẩm được gọi kinh điển cuả nhạc rock. Những bài slow rock, heavy metal, rock ballad của Guns'n'Roses, Metallica, Pantera, SaigonRock, White Lions, ... Niềm vui khi chơi lại trọn vẹn được những tác phẩm này nhanh chóng qua đi. Chúng tôi lờ mờ cảm thấy mình cần phải làm điều gì đó khác hơn. Đã hơn nữa.

Đến năm 2002, nhân sự band có sự thay đổi lớn. Lần này đội hình Microwave đã dần dần ổn định và vững mạnh hơn. Tùng guitar đến từ Cánh Chim Biển, Tuấn bass đến từ Mad Mosquitoes, Hải vocal tìm đến band từ forum của CLB RFC, Khanh - khi đó gia nhập band với vai trò rapper, Thuấn keyboard đến từ những mối quan hệ thời phổ thông. Thành viên band lên đến 7 người.

Phát hiện ra dòng nhạc Nu Metal mới mà đại diện là LinKinParK, KoRn và Limp Bizkit là một bước ngoặt lớn trong việc định hình phong cách band. Mặc dù Limp BizKit và KoRn đã cực kỳ nổi tiếng từ những năm 90s, nhưng với sự nghèo nàn thông tin âm nhạc thời điểm đó (internet rùa, chưa có truyền hình cáp và các diễn đàn âm nhạc...), chúng tôi khám phá ra nhiều band Nu Metal gần như cùng lúc. Sự mạnh mẽ, trẻ trung hiện đại pha trộn nhiều thể loại khác nhau tạo nên một phong cách âm nhạc mới, một sức hấp dẫn mới, mở ra cho chúng tôi một tầm nhìn mới và mạnh dạn sáng tạo ra âm nhạc của riêng mình bằng chính các chất liệu và trải nghiệm nền tảng âm nhạc mà chúng tôi sẵn có.

Song song với việc cover Nu Metal, Microwave bắt đầu có những sáng tác của riêng mình. Ban đầu, Nu Metal nói chung và Microwave tại Việt Nam nói riêng gặp phải rất nhiều sự phản đối và chỉ trích gay gắt vì dám đi ngược lại "quy luật bầy đàn". Nhưng dần dần, với sự tự tin và thể hiện mình chắc chắn qua các show rock lớn nhỏ, Microwave đã thuyết phục và lôi cuốn được sự ủng hộ cổ vũ của mọi người. Điều đó đã khích lệ rất nhiều, và góp phần thôi thúc chúng tôi biến những ước mơ của mình thành hành động cụ thể.

Và một trong những ước mơ đó đã trở thành hiện thực. Ngày 25/12/2005, Microwave tự hào ra mắt làng nhạc Việt Nam với việc chính thức phát hành album đầu tay "Lối Thoát". Đó là thành quả của một quá trình dài đầy khó khăn và thử thách. Với sự tìm hiểu cũng khá lâu và gu thẩm mỹ âm thanh riêng của Microwave, chúng tôi đã tự thực hiện việc sáng tác, biên tập, thu âm và sản xuất album này. Tám tháng dài ròng rã trong phòng thu, có những lúc mệt mỏi, mâu thuẫn, gặp khó khăn về tài chính, việc riêng... album này tưởng chừng như sẽ không bao giờ hoàn thành.  Band lại có sự thay đổi thành viên. Thuấn, Hải ra đi, Khanh đảm nhận vị trí vocal chính. Đội hình Microwave còn lại 5 thành viên và ổn định cho đến ngày hôm nay. Những khó khăn đó ngăn cản chúng tôi, nhưng rất lạ là càng ngăn cản thì chúng lại càng là nguồn cảm xúc mạnh cho chúng tôi trong việc sáng tác.

"Lối Thoát" đã dần nhận được sự ủng hộ của mọi người. Từ anh em chơi nhạc với "Ước Mơ", các em nhỏ với sự lạ lẫm của "Sói", phản đối chiến tranh phi nghĩa với "Trái Tim Dũng Cảm" và "Chiến Tranh", và đặc biệt là "Tìm Lại" đã nhận được sự đồng cảm và ủng hộ vô cùng mạnh mẽ của tất cả mọi người.

Tất cả đã và luôn là sự khích lệ ủng hộ lớn đối với Microwave. Chúng tôi vô cùng sung sướng và hạnh phúc khi nhận được sự cổ vũ cuồng nhiệt của khán giả khi lưu diễn ở khắp các tỉnh thành từ Bắc vào Nam qua trọn hai tour Rock Storm quy mô và hoành tráng. Tất cả đã góp phần giúp chúng tôi quyết tâm thực hiện thật tốt album thứ hai : "Thời Gian".

Với album này, Microwave sẽ phát triển hơn về mặt phong cách âm nhạc với một ý nghĩa mới. Những tia sóng ngày nào sẽ năng động hơn, xóa nhòa ranh giới giữa âm thanh và ánh sáng. Tìm đến những sáng tạo mới vượt qua những quy cách thông thường. Sóng âm thanh hay sóng ánh sáng, tất cả sẽ cùng là một Microwave mới. Microwave của "Thời Gian".

Mọi thông tin chính thức về album "Thời Gian" sẽ được cập nhật nhanh nhất vì album sẽ sớm ra mắt trong một ngày gần đây.

Cheers!

Microwave.
