Then in the 80's they just put reverb on everything and in the 00's it was all compressed to f$%&,
and now it feels as if we're pulling our hair to make things sound "like they used to"! Unless you're mixing "now" music, of course.
Yeah, depends on the genre though. Plenty of drum trickery going on in the 70's in disco and pop.
The raw drum tracks reminded me of drum sounds of bands like Queen in that period.
