LOATHE - Gifted Every Strength (Mix Tutorial)

Featuring a new, "natural-hyped" drum sound, as well as many guitar tricks without pitch tracking ring modulation. I couldn't get anything that worked for free on the internet, so there's some creative guitar-synth inventions that were born here hahaha! Hope you dig it, and leave any questions down below as usual :)

I reccomend watching this video where Erik, the guitar player in Loathe, goes into the guitar tuning and why it is how it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9O4wGRbGrEE

LOATHE - Gifted Every Strength (Cover)

Hi everyone! Here's a cover I'm sure a lot of you will appreciate: Loathe's new song! I've always bumped a few select songs off of I Let it In, so it's cool to have a new song to cover from them. Hope you enjoy! :)

SPIRITBOX - Fata Morgana (Mix Tutorial)

This is one where I'm very proud of the rhythm guitar processing. Considering my entry level 8-string, this tutorial I believe will be very applicable to those of you trying to get the best possible tone out of your guitars.

It's not that you would also grab the same stock Gojira tone and copy what I did here, it's that you'd learn why I made the moves I made. Because your song will probably not be in B0, and not be all tritone chugs that you need absolutely saturating your sides at al...

SPIRITBOX - Fata Morgana (Cover)

Hello everyone! Here's my cover of the opener to Spiritbox's new album Tsunami Sea.

I like to keep y'all Patreon family better up to date on how I'm feeling about the channel and the covers, so here goes. This is my first new music cover in a while. I've finally built back up some taste in (or broke down some dread of) checking out new releases in our circle. One of the key elements has been consuming it directly, by which I mean: listening to just the music (no videos), not reading/wa...

BUSTER ODEHOLM - Consume Exhume (Mix Tutorial)

Lots of fun mimicking Buster's style. Thankfully the guitar tone was a free ride, hahaha! But the bass and the remaining production elements were fun, and key. Hope you guys dig, and leave any questions down below as usual!

BUSTER ODEHOLM - Consume, Exhume (Cover)

Hey guys! Back with a sick jingle written by Buster Odeholm.
In case you missed it, he released this last year as an ad for the updated Neural DSP Archetype Gojira. It's an awesome tune! Hope you guys can appreciate that from this cover.
Thanks for your support as always!

Soul Despair - Live in Porto (Mix Tutorial)

A very special one where we do a LIVE mix! Available for all tiers. ❤

Working with very little tracks, some of them not sounding very good, and applying a completely diffferent mindset to the typical all-direct home mix.

You can also peep what the laptop session for the show looked like (ah, the infamous laptops). Hope you dig!

SOUL DESPAIR - Return To Gold (LIVE Drum Playthrough)

You got the guitar video, now the drum video. The final thing. What we were working for. It was the time of our lives, and you can get a snippet here.

This is a drum-focused edit of the last song, but I produced a FULL set video you can and should watch on the Soul Despair channel if you are curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NH9Ap28jmHY

Hope you like it as much as we did making it, but thi...

SOUL DESPAIR - Return To Gold (Mix Tutorial)

A special ONE HOUR retrospective rundown of the Soul Despair "Crimson" EP mix!

With vocals and everything, this is a very complete video and different in approach than my usual, since it has important considerations on how I approach band work, and stuff that is "not my own" - what deserves to be front and center, how the balance reflects the band, etc.

Older patrons who've followed the mixing videos will also recognize old ways I used to go about making some sounds, which was fun...

Blowing shit up to insanity.
Thought of the day: when you only get a minute, you can blow people's ears off and have more fun than when managing a normal length song. Enjoy!
