26:47 My writing instructors told me that "Style is what you can't help doing," and pointed that in time the limitations of the past become a signature of something nostalgic or authentic-think how much effort we go to now in the digital world to mimic the sound of vinyl, which is largely a product of its how *TERRIBLE* it is as a sound storage medium. I come back to this over and over and over again, whenever my brain gets hung up trying to transcend my limitations and what I really need is permission to ship. Better when I can get something out the door, and best when I can own the limitations, even lean into them in ways.

Just wanted to say thank you for doing this video and videos like this I realy like that you changed your focus from gear reviews to bedroom production It's like a journey to shift the habbit of asking "What gear should I buy?" to "What else can I make with things I already have"? It's a fight against procrastination, exclusivity and toxic mentality It is very inspiring! Thank you

That's exactly right!! I'd been fighting that mental battle in my head for months and months, about how I aimed to create videos about production and landed in review land, there's nothing wrong with reviews I don't mean to say that, just not where I intended to be. The fact that the transition was welcomed with such open arms was so amazing

You not only go out here with your positivity and reasurance but also (and argueably more important) with amazing tips, tricks and just full blown ways of doing stuff in ways that basically anyone can. If they have the passion for it at least and a single damn mic! I love drumming..but never had a real drum set..partially cause i'm broke as shit lol, but also cause i always though to myself..."why even bother, i wouldn't even able to record it anyway" well imma save and buy at least a kick, snare and hihats now and finally go and become a better drummer (not cause of the gear itself obviously lol, but because that's gonna make me wanna play the heck out of it..unlike my crappy E-kit haha..wich i kinda also play the heck out of anyways) Well anyways!

Oh dude well thank you for sticking around as long as you have!! If I could give advice on growing, at least for me, I really found a good growth pace once I abandoned what I thought was "pleasing for the viewer", as backwards as that sounds. If I was so excited at a video concept that I'd be willing to drop weeks and weeks of work into it, people seemed to see that. Worry less about a niche and think about the concepts that are so exciting to you that you're willing to put a stupid amount of work into it, people see that stuff. Consciously or otherwise

Yeah as far as I can tell every musician I've talked to experiences a similar thing. I really think its less so about your own musician sometimes and more so about getting in your own head, and THAT element is a universal feeling. We all want the recorded take to be the best possible version of that part, so the pressure gets crazy intense

It really makes me feel better that I'm not the only one who uses other songs as a reference. I do that a lot. "I want a song kinda like this..." And then I'll record 3 or 4 ... or more different versions of the same song.... it gets maddening. The slow version, the fast version, the rock version, the piano version.... and I sometimes get lost in the woods other times I find the forest.

I’m invested……nice to see you finding out what you’ve been learning by figuring out how others have done it and investing it back into yourself and letting us watch your process. There are those of us in roughly the same space. I’m recording an album in a room in the house. Mixing and producing. Wonderful to ride shotgun along with you in that space. And the most important thing is you/we are doing it for ourselves and friends with the “making it in the business” mentality not a part of the process. Just creativity and sharing THAT! Social media at it’s best! Death Valley, just down the street, is supposed to go over 130 this weekend……

130??? I'll stick to being a fan from a difference lol, and thank you man! I really believe in social media when the intentions are good and the content is made with rigor....unfortunately that type of content is in the minority. Best of luck with the album my friend, keep going strong and see it through to the end!!

Thank you for sharing more of your writing process. This really resonated with me. I have always been able to knock out a riff but putting a whole song structure together felt so weird. Especially when writing alone. I always had a knack for organizing and arranging my old bands songs but I couldn't do it from whole cloth. I look forward to trying this method and borrowing a frame work.

What’s weird is, I have a massive, unhealthy obsession with microphones. I love them all, I think even bad ones can be used for something. I have an equally unhealthy collection of microphones. But here’s the thing, I record almost everything I do an a Lauten Audio LA320 tube mic. I have literally 38 choices in my humble home studio but that’s the mic I keep coming back to. I love it! Also, love your song and that bass line! I love melodies in bass lines too! Also, I find acoustic guitars always sound better with a cat on them!
@AudioHaze 10 күн бұрын
Same! I've got a whole collection, but if I'm recording one source I default to handful of options I trust and know how to mix well. Lauten occupies three of those mics lol and yes....tone wood? More like tone CAT

First of all, congratulations on an amazing work of art! I’ve been listening to Never There almost on repeat. I really feel that this song is some of the best work you’ve done. As a drummer and fellow owner of an LA-220, I felt almost as though you made this video just for me haha. I’ve been scouring KZfaq trying to see if anyone was trying anything even close to this exact video and what kind of results they got. I just want to say thank you for creating amazing content to inspire guys like me to try something new and create cool art. Im stoked to try this technique with my drums and my LA-220 and see what I can make!

Time is probably our most precious resource in today’s world and I would easily take time each day to watch content like this. I appreciate the transparency and the frustration that goes along with recording a song… as far as your discussion on the expectations we put on ourselves that you haven’t made it as a musician if you can’t do it in one take…. I heard an interview of an artist who said what they were trying to achieve in the studio versus what they did in live performances for the same song were a complete and entirely different goal and process. In a live performance, of course the take has to be as good as possible but there is a spirit and ambience of the live situation that masks and makes okay any mistakes. In the studio it’s etched in time meant to be listened to over and over and so must be as perfect as possible. Sure, you hear of those stories of bands getting the perfect take once but that’s different than bedroom recording…. You don’t have that live energy and so I agree with you that you have to abandon any types of those thoughts and separate live vs studio recording, especially home studios. For a complete newbie like me who just started toying around with recording. I truly appreciate your content. Keep it up.
