It's a story that shows how much more there is to music than meets the ear. It's an unprecedented look inside the successes and setbacks of creating the Pono player, the fights and negotiations with record companies to preserve master-pieces for the future, and Neil's unrelenting determination to make musical art available to everyone. To Feel the Music is the true story of his quest to bring high-quality audio back to music lovers-the most important undertaking of his career. Neil Young is challenging the assault on audio quality-and working to free music lovers from the flat and lifeless status quo. It doesn't have to be this way, but the record and technology companies have incorrectly assumed that most listeners are satisfied with these low-quality tracks. The result is music that is robbed of its original quality-muddy and flat in sound compared to the rich, warm sound artists hear in the studio.
We're losing spaciousness, breadth of the sound field, and the ability to hear and feel a ping of a triangle or a pluckof a guitar string, each with its own reso-nance and harmonics that slowly trail off into silence. As these record-ings disappear, music fans aren't just losing acollection of notes. Today, most of the music we hear is com-pressed to a fraction of its original sound, while analog masterpieces are turning to dust in record company vaults. Neil Young, who removed his music from Spotify to protest COVID-19 vaccine misinformation, previously took on the music industry so that fans could hear his music-all music-the way it was meant to be heard.
