      <p>Hmmm. Those links are pretty "discutable". Telling that 128kbps
        is OK for mobile and/or non critical material like rock or heavy
        metal seems to me completely false: have you never heard
        "swiiiiiiish" in the hi hats of such productions when using low
        bitrate mp3 (in which I include 128kbps)?<br>
      </p>
      <p>By the way, mp3 works on psycho-acoustics, and is based on the
        concept of masking frequencies, so using a spectral view to
        explain that the frequency content is or is not there is a
        non-sense when the principle lies on the fact that those
        frequencies wouldn't have been "heard" in the real world when
        positionned after certain other frequencies.</p>
      <p>And I don't think "sacrifying" low and high ends means that low
        and high ends aren't present, it just means that they are
        altered, and that you can't check with a spectral view.<br>
      </p>
      <p>Still, I suggest using flac, bandcamp does accept that file
        format.<br>

                    Hello,<br>
                    <br>
                    This is a fast-paced 'organic techno' (of sorts)
                    synth track.  It was<br>
                    fun to mix.<br>

                    <br>
                    Unfortunately the bass was mostly eaten by
                    soundcloud.  Almost sounds<br>
                    AM-like. I'll have to figure this one out when
                    mixing: why is the bass<br>
                    largely diminished on soundcloud and how to
                    compensate, if possible,<br>
                    for this.<br>
                    <br>
                    Cheers.<br>
