BBC Introducing X Abbey Road Studios - Self Esteem

From two days of recording and mixing in the Gatehouse and a mastering session in Room Five, Self Esteem, also known as Rebecca Lucy Taylor, created the alternative festive single ‘All I Want For Christmas Is A Work Email’.
Chosen by BBC Radio Two’s Jo Whiley for our partnership with BBC Introducing, watch Rebecca behind-the-scenes as she deconstructs her process and how the track was created in three days.

The harmonies on this track are incredible, I always stop what I’m doing and turn it up, drop my head and get lost in their soaring vocal matrix.

Great mic technique, staring at the phone. Ever considered having a printed lyric sheet behind the mic, at eye level? Use a mic stand in T shape, some gaffer tape? 35 years, I’ve been doing that...

The most important and significant artiste to ever record at Abbey Road studios was Thomas 'Fats' Waller

Abbey road has a good recording sound ... but if I had to choose where to record, I would lean more towards Chesky or stockfisch studio. I clarify it is a personal opinion ...
