The recording in a production room with headphones on bit makes a lotta sense for me. I never really took that into consideration even though I often record my own vocals in the same room. I have a cheap "booth" setup made up of pvc pipes and iso blankets which works okay for my room, but I'm usually doing takes and then taking headphones off once I finish and then start editing stuff thru monitors. It's actually a lot more frustrating if I'm recording takes, stopping, taking headphones off, playing thru something, deciding I need to record a part again, putting headphones back on, and stepping back in the booth. Must be some weird adhd shit because I've too stubborn to just keep the headphones until all the vocals are completed lol.
Really enjoying your insights, reflections, and informed musings, Tony. I'm a career cognitive neuroscientist (and lifelong musician) who is just starting to release electronica music. I'm sure the record deals will start rolling in soon. Keep up the great videos! Cheers from Carlsbad, California.
Put it all out there, ya never know. Thanks.
@@TonyBlackNYC Thanks!
Especially isolapted while tracking while singing about a storyline too. Headphones and isolation really helps the vocalist get into that storyline zone, kinda like an actor who owns his role. Personally, I rather like waiting until the next morning before listening to what was tracked to the band’s music. It’s easier to get down from the roll thing. If that makes any sense
Great video Tony
much appreciated, I've watched several of your channel over the years
How much can I learn from Tony today?!
Yo good advice Tony! Very applicable to current state of music promo
Doing vocals with an artist in the control room is my favourite way to work
I like a booth too...but not too far away
How can you forget Eddie Money’s I wanna go back? I like Mister Mister but I Love Eddie Money…I like the dark room sometimes the sunlight can be too bright so it’s a nice balance to do videos both ways…White Castle is 🤮just the smell is enough for me to never eat it 😂..that person may have left the bar at 9:30am to get White Castle 😂😂..I love slow down the quick 💯can I believe I knew u almost 15 years in 1998 😂😂holy cow it’s been a lot of years Tony B..omg the hit factory I remember those days you are really going down memory lane 😮omg Leo and Tip went back out to chase more models ….the end ‼️
