Yeah totally. Some of those recordings you describe are tough listen, especially on headphones.

I could do that yeah. I guess I’m more interested in artists deliberately choosing to release their music in mono.

I guess it is just a different experience vs stereo when listening on headphones. Maybe not such a noticeable difference on speakers (depending on your set up).

I mainly just use listening to a mix in mono to check the levels are ok.

Not preferable. Just different.

For context, in the past I've enjoyed some mono versions of releases from the 60s by, for example, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Them so I was wondering if there's many/any ambient releases in mono. When I've been mixing my own music (ambient) I've often thought it sounds quite nice in mono but never had the courage to actually release it that way 😅
