Hi Rhett! I’m one of your subscribers and fans from the Philippines! Just a quiz question: Why does the vocalist use two microphones at the same time? Is that to minimize time for doing double recordings?
Really cool putting this out there in such a raw format. Love hearing you slowly work out that ending part and catching the convos on arrangement. The mutual respect was so apparent. Nice work y’all! 🤘
I like this song quite a lot, it sounds ''alternative'' in a trippy way. Like '90s indie rock. A mix of jangly picked parts and slightly noisy/shoegazy ones.
Step by step: 1. Spend years of trial and mostly error 2. Accumulate mass amounts of gear 3. Find several unicorns (people of minds, like tastes, like goals, with their own gear that have lives that allow getting together regularly) 4. Write songs that sound good and have meaning No sweat hahaha
2nd to last step: Fall in love with your creation, convinced it's a hit, you convince yourself people will say it's the best thing they heard since the 70's, get jazzed! Final Step: Fall into deep depression as nothing happens, your sonic masterpiece is completely irrelevant.
My biggest struggle in home recording is getting the drum software to do what I want it to do, and it never does. I usually get burned out after five hours trying to get a beat I like and quit. I have so many lost songs because of this.
Find a song you like and use the beat. Change the tempo and key. I do it all the time. You wouldn’t know. Also don’t be afraid of samples. One of my favorite songs uses a loop from Take Five. Also check out players you like. They often have drum samples available to use free of copyright after purchasing. Joey Waronker has definitely got me interested. .
Studying drummers and figuring out what you like when and why though is essential for a producer. As is hiring talented studio drummers who will have ideas you simply won’t have.
Happy for you, current culmination of a dream. I like Noah's voice, but I'd love to hear it more within the context of that opening jam. Nuclear grade pipes need something rich to lay waste to.
That guitar idea around 4.50 minutes into the video sounds great to my ears!! Great band, a true unit: love it! Man, those vocals always are so powerfull! This man can really sing! Shivers! 🍀 (BTW: if you’re comming back to Europe (or The Netherlands) to play gigs or record and Philip doesn’t want or can’t bring a (back-up) bass, he’s totally free to use one or more of my (Fender/ Peterbuilt) P-style, J-style or Guild Starfire basses. If he wants to set them up to his personal taste? No worries at all. They can handle anything. I can send photo’s / specifics if needed.) Good luck guys! 🖖
I still think the band should be called just 'Good Trouble' as you yourself referred to it as. Being in a band is all about compromise. It was nice to see/hear you guys acknowledge the drop out one by one idea, give it a try, and ultimately go with the vamp. You could tell that's what you wanted to do from the beginning but you were open to others ideas. Nice. I would suggest though to try, even for one song or even just a given day, to not play with a click. Get rid of the grid and just listen to each other like the bands that you grew up to did. And look, after doing this for 30+ years, have fun man, you smiled once and that was at the end where you weren't exactly excited about your performance. Don't be so serious, it's called "playing" in a band for a reason brother. Cheers Rhett.
Desktop Mac, Garage Band, a Line 6 Pod Go, a few cables, you really don't need more then that. 10's of thousands in gear is just overkill. Pretty good song.
Really cool, you ended up adding in what became my favorite part of the song! Funny that you had played the song for 6+months and only then did u add that in
Wonderful, love this type of video which showcase your talent as arranging your songs and teh choice you made very instructive for band like us who want to devellop more compositions
Love your amp setup!! I'd really like to own that Marshall or Orange and that cab!!! Sounding great my friend... Soon as i hit the Powerball I'll have a badass amp setup
You cant make enough of this type of vids. Also it would be really interesting if you could document the process of making a video, from coming up with the topic/concept to the editing
I’m a huge fan of recording in a large open space together with bleed, takes me back to the 60’s and 70’s recordings. In this style I’d prefer to kill the click and let it be organic as you are going for the live vibe anyways. Difficult spot is the overdubs can get tricky. Sounds great! 👍
@@thegoodguy44 that’s the point. 😊these players all have very good time and feel and the rhythm section is locked in. The ever so slight change is the feeling I go for in recordings, not so polished.
Nice! Any chance you could ever do a video about the optimal recording/practice space setup or at least about the setup you're doing? Curious if those 4x12 are pushing air whilst you're recording or is there a loadbox sending signal to your studio mixer and into your earphones?
That was an enjoyable video, and cool vibe tune. Thanks for sharing. Just an observation from the outside in of musicians and friends making music, I wonder if in the ending discussion, the most collaborative and inclusive approach would have been to try both the suggested part drop out succession/chord ring, and the fade out options, listen to them both, then collectively feel how it shakes out. The change in the chug part came out nice and elegant. Word.
really love this video. the battle of bleeding mics. or does it all go through in ears? well, no you mentioned the 4x12. guessing the shape of room helps a lot. angles and stuff...
Great stuff, very inspiring! But could you please get a gimbal or just a gopro with stabilization turned on? I was getting seasick after a few minutes (yes, i’m old)
sounds great. cool idea about a series of these videos. @RhettShull What Delay was that in the Helix ?? Been trying to make them oscillate with not much success. the Pod XT had an analog delay model that was beautiful for those sounds.
How Do You Record Multitrack and Not Have Digital Artifacts When Recording With a Computer ?? What's The Trick to it ?? Everything You Do Sounds So Good and Analog !!
Cool video and cool track @RhettShull, I had the exact same amp (Orange Ad30 single channel) few years ago, and I miss it. Curious how you run it (settings), in the studio it can probably cover a lot of ground, but live, since it's a single channel, no fx loop, and no crazy headroom, I found I was sometimes fighting with it a bit
Go check out the live in studio version of Survivors here!

Hi Rhett! I’m one of your subscribers and fans from the Philippines! Just a quiz question: Why does the vocalist use two microphones at the same time? Is that to minimize time for doing double recordings?
@@abryllgile One mic was an FX mic that had saturation and slapback echo, the other is a "clean" mic
Every time I see Rhett's basement studio I become just a shade more green with envy. What a rad space.
It's so nice to see the musicians listen to the drummer's opinions.
Amen to that, brother!🤘🤘
They listened, but that was about it lol
Amazing song! Great to see the band’s progression as a group and the process of making a song a song. Can’t wait to hear the covers too!
Man I sure hope you have flood insurance.
Man, as someone whose lost everything they owned in a flood, I feel this comment
@@Doctor-Shoebill so sorry to hear that....terrible.
I thought about that as well
Second that. Shit got all ruined once.

Really cool putting this out there in such a raw format. Love hearing you slowly work out that ending part and catching the convos on arrangement. The mutual respect was so apparent. Nice work y’all! 🤘
Always great to see and hear the creative process and the band working together! The studio looks great! Song came out amazing!
Those textures and layers really give it a classic vibe and open sound - like something from the '60s / '70s!
What you have is a dream life. Im really happy for you dude. You are a inspiration.
You guys have really done it when you can turn your craft into a profession, it always takes work and passion as well
the way the drums and bass are locked is a beautiful thing
I like this song quite a lot, it sounds ''alternative'' in a trippy way. Like '90s indie rock. A mix of jangly picked parts and slightly noisy/shoegazy ones.
Bud, happyto see the studio going strong! I know you guys went through so much building it. Awesome!
I like the way Ian leaves out the kick drum on the beat for that chunking part when the bass guitar also lays out.
love the way how it’s created and recorded. I love those video’s!
Love that song ❤ would be great to have it on vinyl. Thanks for giving insights in the process!
🇬🇧 Oasis & early Coldplay vibes to that new guitar part! Love it!
These band vlog things are going to be great content. It's gonna be fun.
Thanks guys, fun to see you work together..! 😀. All the best forward! 🤗

See? Recording is easy.
One Mac, Garage Band, a guitar, it is all you need, anymore is excess.
The cool rugs complete the righteous vibes…..oh, and I love the singers voice
Really enjoyed this and awesome to hear how this song steered into a very improved direction torwards the end, with the new bridge and all. Nice work!
Love the studio! What an effort... shows the love for your craft!

6:02 gave me chills. Gave me a good b-sides long jam feel

Every band I've ever been in never talks to each other like this -MUCH prefer the way you work together!😉

thanks for sharing this with us! amazing!
I’m trying to build a barebones “studio” at home, you and rick are an inspiration
My favorite song from the tour vlogs!
Man, loved the Khruangbin vibe in that intro song. Amazing !!
I really like that! Good on ya, guys!
That was awesome! Really enjoyed the video and final recording.
bro way to innovate! the yellow outline vs white is dope.
Id be stoked for more videos like this
You guys are awesome!! Love your tone rhett!!
Love this tune man. Great to see the process as well. Cheers.

that little bass guitar is cool!
Wow! Amazing seeing you work in the studio, what an effort for this video! 🔥
Sounds great and your studio is a massive inspiration! Parts of the solo remind me of the one you played in "Hell or High Water."
I was thinking the same thing!
More videos like this please! Thank you!
As soon as I saw the Coles overheads on the drums I knew this shiz was for real.

Pleaseeee post live studio videos. I’d love to hear good trouble that way
Man please do thos for every song you guys write! I love this behind the scenes and collaboration! Thanks
SO. MUCH. YES. Even more of this and even more in depth!!! This is the content I'm looking for!!! epic song, epic recording...TEACH ME!!!
Content you rarely see and i love it. Reminds of when i made music with my old group. ❤
More please...
MOOD ftw!! Great jam :)
So the studio that you were having a nightmare building is now a working studio. Enjoy 🙂Thanks for the great content 👍🏻
Love the vibe of the basement man!
Sound GoooooD!! Thanks for Sharing 🎸🎶 🎤🐦 🎶 💪 ✌
Phil is a monster player.
damn, you published this right when I'm recording!
Cool. You guys are creating art, it’s good to see.
Just listened to whole song, great tune. Love the start, great fade out.
I was hoping to see more of the recording process versus a performance by the title. Js sounded great!
Killer song! Rhett you’re totally channeling some non slide Derick Trucks vibes!
I dig it.
A real drum kit? NOW you're talkin!👍🤘✌
Great vid, you MAKE recording look easy lol. Always a pleasure watching your vid bro.
Is the studio finished? I think I missed that video, can we get a tour of the space please? Cheers!
Loving the orange amps rhett
Great solo there at the end man.. Know you're feeling when you let the tape roll lol!
Wonderful, love this type of video which showcase your talent as arranging your songs and teh choice you made very instructive for band like us who want to devellop more compositions
Very good, guys! Nice work❤
This is the most subtle click track I've heard thats still audible! :D
good edit, Chris!
Always love to see Rhett playing his ugly Novo 😂
(j/k on calling it ugly, just payback for all the blue guitar shade)
Love your amp setup!! I'd really like to own that Marshall or Orange and that cab!!!
Sounding great my friend...
Soon as i hit the Powerball I'll have a badass amp setup
Yeah Boi!?!?! 🙌
This was awesome to watch holy shit!
You cant make enough of this type of vids. Also it would be really interesting if you could document the process of making a video, from coming up with the topic/concept to the editing
This is a fucking fantastic video - Nice job mate!
omg! Is that a Tascam 388? 👀
Very cool Rhett!!!

It wouldn’t be in time in parts if the click wasn’t there.
@@thegoodguy44 that’s the point. 😊these players all have very good time and feel and the rhythm section is locked in. The ever so slight change is the feeling I go for in recordings, not so polished.
@@IAM_Reedy dats why no one ever heard of you bro 👍
@@thegoodguy44 nice solid argument there. Go straight to insult. Learn how to record, be on numerous tracks as a session player and get back to me. 👍
@@thegoodguy44my man how do you think guys back in the day recorded before clicks? Lol
Nice! Any chance you could ever do a video about the optimal recording/practice space setup or at least about the setup you're doing? Curious if those 4x12 are pushing air whilst you're recording or is there a loadbox sending signal to your studio mixer and into your earphones?

Is Noah playing through the Tone King? Niiiice
this is really excellent ⚡😎🔥👨🎤 appreciate you posting this Video ⚡🤘⚡
really love this video. the battle of bleeding mics. or does it all go through in ears? well, no you mentioned the 4x12. guessing the shape of room helps a lot. angles and stuff...
Should do a vamp out with the just the drums and then all come back in like The Beatles!
Oof. Starting off the video on a rim shot was tough on the ol' ears. 😵
Love the song and look at the studio. Got my first Novo coming this month and have to ask: what’s that strap on your Serus J? Really cool.
Sir Paul would be proud.
awesome! been working on my setup. not anything close to this though!
Great stuff, very inspiring! But could you please get a gimbal or just a gopro with stabilization turned on? I was getting seasick after a few minutes (yes, i’m old)
sounds great. cool idea about a series of these videos. @RhettShull What Delay was that in the Helix ?? Been trying to make them oscillate with not much success. the Pod XT had an analog delay model that was beautiful for those sounds.
Love that moment when you realise that you need to put on your producer hat and an hour later your basic slash and burn rocker has 300 tracks to edit.
