I just have checked, the music you can find in all DJ stores such like Beatport do have -6 to -9 LUFS, which is also the same amount of loudness for clubs and discotheques, and that’s what’s recommended. So the bottom line is that you only need -14 LUFS if you would like to use streaming services just like Spotify. Otherwise you can continue as usual.
So @lilith , obviously you’re wrong when you’re saying that many submissions for MBC14 are too loud. The loudness of my submission of -8 LUFS seems to be perfect. Maybe it’s your personal feeling that these songs are too loud, but in fact it’s not the case. Anyway, your hint is justified and I will check this in future tracks, but I probably won’t aim for -14 LUFS because my personal feeling about it is that the mixes are losing its energy if they’re too quiet.
