He’s a great musician who happens to play drums. Inspired parts that he creates from his own space not affected by trends and fads. We love him because he’s authentic to what he hears.
Regarding, the dead kit (by dead he means no sound reflections or echo), as someone who has done voice, a similar setup but with floating panels above me, a bass trap in the corner and then absorbers on three sides worked wonders. One side was open and there were gaps in the floating panels which made the sound still open. In other words, it didn't sound muffled, just reflection free. The panels overhead were really important, very similar to the fort he was describing. Good to hear they still know how to rig that.
This man could record himself with a cell phone and it would sound good. But it doesn't hurt to have some good microphones around. Greetings from Argentina.
Yesterday I saw some list of 100 best drummers and I was actually wondering why this guy isn’t on that list. Really, a few times I have listened to something and said to myself that I like the drums on that song, it just makes that song great … and surprise, many times it was this guy. It’s a shame they didn’t include him
It depends who where you ask. In L.A. for instance, it's pretty common to see Logic paired with and front loading Pro Tools (people compose or arrange in Logic, then dump into PT for mixing). That said (in L.A.), DP is still popular with touring crews and some film composers. Some L.A. based Europeans (Zimmer) use Cubase (the first serious competitor to Logic when it was called Creator/Notator). Not sure about Nashville or ATL (Pro Tools would be my guess for Nashville, due to the live nature of country music), but when I lived in the 305, Logic and PT also dominated (others I saw were FL and Studio1 for the kids and hip hop minded). When I lived in NY, Logic and ProTools were the dominant platforms as well - some hip hop guys used Reason, which I'm sure is a very capable tool, but the sounds on the sessions they sent me to work on (in Logic) were risible. It's cute but not on the level of Logic or Cubase or others. In South America, Europe, Asia and Africa, it's more common to see PC Windows computers, so Cubase, Samplitude, Reaper, Live, etc., are more dominant. In Germany, for instance, they like to use German software and hardware. Logic started out German, so there's a little nostalgia there for some perhaps. I've been on Logic since before it was Logic, I started out on Atari. So I'm very comfortable within Logic's environment. It just makes sense to me. And the quality of the plugins and instruments can't be faulted. If I were still on PC. (which I was before Apple bought Logic), my first choice would be Samplitude/Sequoia - it's a fabulous platform and has mastering grade plugins. Or maybe Luna (I've got tons of UA plugins and interfaces, only makes sense to keep it in the family). These days though, one person can start a DAW in their kitchen. My mastering DAW is the astoundingly excellent DSP Quattro. It's produced by one Italian developer, Stefano Daino. Just as Philippe Goutier also developed the mastering DAW WaveLab alone for 25 years (Steinberg just sells it). I'm always surprised that there are so many DAWs around (when I started out, there were maybe four), but hey: there are 8 Billion people on the planet, and Logic is Mac only, so that limits who it can reach on the one hand. On the other hand, there are dozens of car, phone, TV and flat screen and pro audio monitor and headphone brands. Why not. Bottom line: if you can afford a Mac, and are starting out, it's likely Logic is a no brainer. It's an irresistibly priced ($199 - or less with a student discount) all encompassing platform (e.g., Finneas - who wrote and produced his sister's Billie Eilish's first album in their bedroom with a Mac, a mic and Logic Pro - in fact, he's used Logic Pro for all her albums).
if you want a house like this in LA (easily a few mil) you do work like this without complaining for 90% of your gigs and never mention it. famous directors I know are the same. until you get to know them personally, you had no idea how much crap they crank out non-stop usually leaving their name off it, for the few jobs that fuel their fame.
![DRUMS: A Recording Experience With Darrell Thorp And Joey Waronker At Studio 606 [Lauten Audio]](/img/n.gif)
WOW! THIS IS EPIC!
🙏❤️❤️❤️
I appreciate how slow and thoughtful this video moves
He’s a great musician who happens to play drums. Inspired parts that he creates from his own space not affected by trends and fads. We love him because he’s authentic to what he hears.
This was fantastic. Thanks for posting. Joey's such a great drummer. I love what happens at 5:37🙂
Choosing mics : 4 minutes, Choosing drumsticks : 4 hours. What a great guy!
We make the mic part easy 😁
He's an amazing drummer. I know him from the band Atoms For Peace, where he played alongside Thom Yorke and Flea.
Enjoyed this. Great drummer. Kudos to the Audio/Video Team. 🙂
I was really getting into this and then it just ended! Good to see something with Joey!
What a vibe. Great to hear non-smash-smash drumming.
💯
This is great! I enjoy Joey's work. Thanks for allowing us to visit his creative space.
Really beautifully shot. Excellent work. Thank you for this.
So well done. With one of the drummers I admire most in the world.
That was badass. Fantastic feature! Joey's humility despite a rich career of working with some heavy hitters is awesome.
i love this, i know joey from thom yorke. this feature is beautiful, cause of its quiet passages
Dang that snare sounds so perfect!
This video makes me want to play the drums very gently.
this got me lol
Joey is absolutely an extraordinary and rare person. Truly unique competence and approach to the instrument. Thank you man and greetings from Italy
So amazing - what a humble cat. And such a tasty drummer; with so much softness & feel. JPMusic
WALT MINK….FOREVER!🙏🏾🤘🏾✊🏾
Inspiration!!!
REally nice!!
lovely light touch 👌🏻
Such an amazing look into things.
He's played on a bunch of my favourite albums
A guy who proves so much drum tone is in having a light touch.
After listening to an interview with Kenny Aronoff, it's so relaxing to listen to Joey.
🧘♂
🤣 True !!
Wow, really well made. Thanks!
We are so glad you liked it!
thank you! he's a legend
I love the deranged vibes and almost awkward moments. It made me smile, laugh and feel at peace. Well done.
Fantastic
We are so glad you like it!
Saw you with Walt Mink back in the early 90s. Incredible.
this channel rocks!
🥰
amazing!
yes please
When I was 21 I made a set of windchimes out of keys too haha! Great sounding mics!

This guy loves fiberglass as much as me. If you ever need a crazy kit in Florida holler
beautiful

Fantastic!! Great o know that music was for client in my country....I need your mics guys :)
what a chill little sweetheart

What a feel-he is always amazing. Anyone know what ride he's playing at the end? It sounds killer being played so lightly.
This is a Portlandia sketch (meant as a compliment)
Not nearly enough time spent on the drum stick selection piece.
😂😂😂
That was great
king!
Son of Lenny? It’s all in the family. Might have a leg up.
Dope
And sister ANNA is an amazing talent as well.
Woow!
Great video. Thanks. I’m also a lefty playing for 45 years. I’m right handed at everything else though. I wonder if it’s the same for you?
Joey is a legend! But regardless, anyone that has a DeltaLab Effectron II delay in their rack has my respect anyway!!!
Craft is the only thing that matters in life.
What was the song he was playing along to at the end??
Original music by Mariusz Szypura (Silver Rocket) - not sure it's released yet.
Great video. Is it me or are there more peeps using Logic Pro these days?

Does he do sessions for anyone? How would I reach out to Joey?
Walt Mink!
how is he checking mic levels on his phone?
a nice guy
"It's just deranged enough to be cool." 😂
Is there one full sentence in this piece?
Walt Mink!!!
Drop mixes in mono
Yeah Vatar sticks are garbage. I gravitate to the ProMarks too. Your lucky to find one good Vater set in 100 sticks.
Let’s not stay on a video subject showing massive OCD while choosing a drumstick. Super awkward
That was my favorite part of the video.
Gotta be a gag. The music featured is bullshit - no drummer can dig this.
Speaking for myself I enjoy this music. You should check out Beck - Morning Phase album for reference. Chilled vibe like this with nice pocket drums.
if you want a house like this in LA (easily a few mil) you do work like this without complaining for 90% of your gigs and never mention it. famous directors I know are the same. until you get to know them personally, you had no idea how much crap they crank out non-stop usually leaving their name off it, for the few jobs that fuel their fame.
I like it. You wont get manny gigs being such a pretentious prick.
Love it. Its hard to rock soft and sound good. Beck Morning Phase is a masterpiece.
@@Snowden74 and has James Gadson on a few tracks too! Got it on vinyl, my 9 month old baby boy loves it too haha
6:00 Pro Mark time😅
