Winner of the last Slate mix competition - Drums and vocals tutorial

I thought this was really cool.

A lot of pop drums are super heavily processed and blended with loops. Its a fairly current sound with a more sophisticated use of reverbs. I found this one interesting.

These vocals may have been considered over compressed by a 1990’s standard. These days…If over compression sells recordings, I could care less.

woooow!!! thanks for sharing. this is really educational. do you have some more videos or a playlist on youtube about these things? I’d love to watch them :slight_smile:

Thanks Brian @brianinogang, No, actually i don’t. These extremely helpful ones are rare. Where someone actually did something meaningful and REALLY shows whats happening under the hood. Even if you know most of the tricks the exposure to someone else thought process, workflow, and creative decisions is always worth while.
