What is COMPLETE is the analog OR digital signals + their increased or decreased recording noise floor which are listened to in a room with his own increased or decreased noise floor....GENERIC digital or analog signals must be listen to in SPECIF... 
I admire Miles Davis, i admire Stravinsky; but i loved Chet Baker and Scriabin...You?
Gimme a good tune. Even if it’s a weirdo, spiky, backwards one. One that cuts through the clutter. One that gets past the frontal lobes. This one will past the frontal lobes of anything, except perhaps stones...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK3...

Yes we do a have Arvo Part and Georgy Sviridov..... 😊 I think the same that your French Professor...Tv and computer are helpful in everyday life but for the soul they are " entertaining" like a circus near an hermitage...You cannot "micmic" mystic...
