Live @ MetroSonic Presents - EMEFE (Brooklyn, NYC) HD

Some of the most fun I've ever had

Baby Brother and my Cowboy Punk vocal setup

These Jameson-fuled BK/NY rockers are some favs of mine.  All live, all off the handle, loud, fast, & exceptionally musical.  This is not noise, it is soulful, well constructed and melodic songs that are easy and fun to sing to, with some NASTY guitars, and "feel-changes" that will make you lose your balance (in a good way).

For Jeremy Beazlie's vocals (think Jagger meets Jack White), I used a Blue Woodpecker Ribbon (singing into rear side which produces a slightly darker color, double pop filtered as well), and my homemade Pac Bell Telephone Mic (yes, it sounds like a phone, because it is one).

Both are hitting a Neve preamp and EQ on the 5315 console, then absolutely blasting a Universal Audio 175-B limiter (the real one, no re-issues here, this thing gets HOT!).  The 175's tubes start to break up at a certain point, and at that threshold lies the magic for this example...

I'll be mixing later this month.  Lookin' forward to it.

Some other details:  We cut 11 songs in 2 days at MetroSonic, Teruhisa Uchiyama was assisting.  Check out Baby Brother's older/rougher stuff (that I recorded, mixed, and mastered all analog in 3-days) here, the new record is of a higher fidelity of course, but still just as "raw."  Check out "Rodeo Song", "Abuse", or "Ghost Train Robbers" (some of my favs).

Make it sound better Steve.

Ok friend.  Just you wait there.  Blammo.
