Man, this video was such a journey to make. In Rainbows is my favourite album of all time and Radiohead's my favourite artist of all time, and it's been with me throughout my life more than any other album. I've been nervous to take this on because I knew I had to get it RIGHT, but I'm really proud of the final product. Let me know what you think and feel free to leave suggestions for other artist recreations/music production breakdowns in the comments!

The 3 Types of Indie Vocals (Vocal Mixing & Layering Tutorial)

On my recreation videos I've gotten a TON of requests to dive into my mixing process in more depth, so I decided to make a video devoted to it! These are the 3 vocal layering & mixing techniques that I use most often in indie songs, loosely based on the production styles of Bon Iver, Novo Amor, S. Carey, Phoebe Bridgers, and other similar artists. I'd like to emphasize again that I'm a producer...

    Thank you for all the content. Very insightful and helpful. Question regarding the topic about UA-cam's Content ID, which wasn't covered on the video. After I upload a cover video to a YT Channel and the content ID mechanism recognizes the copyright holder and I am allowed to post it without any specific regional blocks or things like it, is there still a risk of a copyright strike? How do you mitigate that? thank you

    thanks for the helpful video! I have a question about distributing cover songs through DistroKid and uploading them to UA-cam. If I distribute my cover song via DistroKid to streaming platforms, including UA-cam Music, will UA-cam automatically recognize me as the owner when I upload a video of that same cover song to my UA-cam channel? I’m worried about potential Content ID claims. How do I make sure UA-cam knows I’m the one who distributed the song through DistroKid? Any advice would be great, thanks!

      If you want that video to be monetized then you might need a license for each one, but to be honest I don't know specifics about this. If you're not worried about monetization then you can probably post on youtube without an issue. Just be careful if you do an Eagles song lol

    This turned out fantastic. Too many of these type videos get so bogged down in the hyper-specifics of compression, reverb, etc. and lose structure, melody, and arrangement as a result, which this didn't.

    I don’t think the end result really sounds like Radiohead. What makes them a great band is that every song is a well-honed idea, agonised over months and years until it is crystallised and perfect. The idea of this song is that it’s an at attempt to copy their ‘sound’ but it has, as far as I can tell, no emotional depth and does not communicate anything at all. That’s why we like Radiohead, because their songs are speaking to us. Do you know what I mean?

    • @lucasfourniermusic
      @lucasfourniermusic 14 днів тому

      @@kurtcleary6794 I make these videos for artists who have something to communicate, as you say, but are struggling to express it. My goal is to analyze the music theory and production behind the artists I recreate to make their “sound” more accessible. That way, people who are like Radiohead and have something to communicate are better equipped to do so. And it’s true that, on their own, sound/production style/theory are superficial. I make my own song in these videos to have a little bit of fun and show an example of applying all the theory discussed so it doesn’t come across like a boring university lecture. And yeah, I usually whip up the songs in an afternoon or so, and put most of my artistic & creative energy into making my own music and producing for other artists, which is my full-time job. So, sorry that I didn’t live up to the standard of one of the greatest albums of all time on a 20-minute educational video lol

      Slightly off topic, or a far more general one - I was gobsmacked when you said you were 5 when this album was released; when I was 5, Thom Yorke was 3…and I was 30 when OK Computer came out. That is my favorite RH album, and in my top 5 ever by anyone. It was one of those that comes around once a decade that changes your life. What are your thoughts on OKC?
