I didn't do anything with it. -I thought so.
No. I think it's good.
This should have been louder.
During recording.
It's rough, it's for later.
Rutger Hauer? Also Rutger Hauer?
He drummed it well. -No, I programmed it.
Well done.
He could have drummed this, right?
There were some songs he didn't have, and then we went into post-production.
So he didn't drum this one and Save Me.
The rest he did drum.
Those strings should be louder. -Yes I put them softer temporally.
Now they get louder. Here they come.
That delay after it is nice.
It should be more in the background. You shouldn't make out what he says.
That'll come later.
I didn't know that of course.
I'll correct it right now.
Now I think the strings are too loud.
They can be. -Really? OK.
You don't hear this one... let's see.
You almost don't hear this anymore.
It should be an intercourse between the two. The strings are as important as the guitars. -I think so too.
It's Murphy again.
Something like that? -Yes.
Then I can save it, then it's fine.
Going for a Dead End. That's a terrible word to end on.
Yes. -Rhytmically.
Here the strings are pushed, the rest softer.
And then all of a sudden...
At the end I do nothing. -Exactly, no fade out or anything.
The ending is good.
Does it have problems?
Ah you're going to the first loud bit. -Yeah, just see.
You could consider giving the kick less filter. -Sorry?
You could consider giving the kick less filter.
Less ***, you mean? -Less reverb.
Oh that reverb is on another... -The snare? -It comes with another track.
Oh it's on the snare? -Yeah it's somewhere else I discovered.
That's right. If you hear it separately there's no reverb.
There's no reverb... in it's origin.
I should have done this manually.
You hear? -Indeed.
There's no reverb so it's somewhere else. -Can you get the snare?
There. On the snare.
I don't understand why.
It's snare bottom? -Yes.
And if you use snare top? -No. -You don't use it?
No you don't hear it.
I can't use this.
That's why I used the bottom. I first use this one but it didn't get anywhere.
It's a... a drop.
So the only thing I can do is put a gate on the bassdrum.
On the snare? -Or on the snare, that too.
Is it good?
You won't get rid of it.
There it goes. On the peak.
You won't get rid of it. It's difficult.
What's the effect before it? I think the kick is too loud on that track.
I don't think it's disturbing myself. I noticed it.
Now it's just like the kick is in a garage.
Many drummers want that.
I was once in a studio where they recorded in a boathouse.
They hung up all kinds of canoes. Had to tape them to the wall. It all vibrated along.
You'd think why on earth, but it was...
...to get that room sound.
It's nicer without.
If you search there'll be gates.
From gating the sound will never get better.
If you want I can try to get rid of the kicks from the track at home.
To erase them.
It might take me an hour or so. -It would take you long. But why?
We're mixing it now? -Well if it should sound nicer.
I don't think it's noticeable.
Nice.
I think I played the bass guitar track around 2008. The song's that old.
It's a fantastic song.
Keep making those songs. Keep delivering.
One of them one day will be a hit, then you made it.
You can't cut this one as a single, it's 10 minutes. -Yes, 9 minute something.
You shouldn't use this one as a single.
That acoustic track you should use, so to say.
You mean Phantom? -Yes.
Or GAPS. GAPS is also a commercial song.
Or one of the first four songs? -Yes, but they are...
I should hear the whole thing. That's the danger I told you about before.
Those four are totally different in terms of mixing, I'm sure.
Because you recorded this better. You did.
I get better tracks from you, so I can do more.
And eh... What's her name...
I don't think Sebas improved, but Jessica improved, her pronounciation.
I needed to tweak many of Sebas' sounds.
Especially that one song, the guitar was so shrill.
You can't believe how shrill.
That bass I really... The meter isn't leaving it's place.
It's not so bad in the whole mix.
Like this it sounds very brutal. -It has to.
Look, you have the hit, and the low to support it.
Hear that attack. Still it doesn't move.
Here it comes again.
I can let it continue.
I think the fade out can start early but really slow, until almost the end.
I just improvised.
At the end the guitar should be softer, the solo is too dominant. -Yeah the solo is ugly in the end.
You should fade out the solo. -Hear it.
It's on purpose. -Of course he does that, I'm not stupid.
But it's a matter of taste. -Per my request, even. -I was afraid of that.
But still it's a matter of taste, right?
No this will be fine. This song is easy.
It's been done so well it'll be no problem.
