Who ever thought it sounded good this way? I think it's because headphones weren't widely used back then. (lemmy.ml)

I'd be perfectly fine if everything was just mixed mono. I see little value in stereo. I'm weird like that.

In electronic music you often slightly detune the left and right of a synthesizer to make it sound "wide", you can't do that in mono and if you mix the stereo down to mono it sounds boring.

However most clubs are going to be playing mono so always bounce to mono and test mix.
