I'm betting they sound just fine, Bud. The waves I produce look similar, i.e., not too compressed. The LUFS movement got started to put an end to the loudness wars, which as you know was all about compressing the crap out of your track so that it would sound as loud as possible.

It is the overly compressed tracks that now sound like crap when that playback auto gain offset is applied by spotify and iTunes, etc.

That is talked about in the second video Tony posted.
