1. SOUNDBITE (English) Sting and Shaggy, recording artists
Sting: “I like I like the ritual of selecting an album. Yeah, taking it out of the cover, you know, taking it out of the inner sleeve and then meticulously putting it down on the turntable and then hearing that lovely noise as the needle goes onto the vinyl and, and then the music starts and there’s, there’s something religious about that ritual, which I miss. I missed for the CDs and the cassette era. I really miss that ritual. And then looking at the album cover and reading.”
Shaggy: “And reading all the credits.”
Sting: “Everything that was written. Who played the bass on it? Who engineered it, where I miss that information. I think modern music has become commodified by being just– You switch it on, you switch it off so you don’t really know where it comes from. And I think it’s reduced in its value because of that.”
