mix of Radio Head tribute band

Post by hubird »

I finished mixing a life recording of a local band called Karma Police.
It's a tribute band playing covers from Radio Head.
Unfortunedly (for me) the band wants to dub in a few guitar tracks, as these aren't played very well while dominant in long intro's of the songs.
But this song is judged for what it is, so I can show it.

The life set is for promo aims, to get gigs.
It's a remarkable choice to cover Radio Head, something different from Queen or Abba, but it could work :-)

Recordings are done from the life mixer's dry-out busses directly to a laptop (not by me by the way).
Had to clean every track against mike phase effects, and dynamically change a lot of extreme peaks on vocals en bass (mike and playing technics driven).
Scope's de-esser did nothing, not even three of them in a row :roll:

I covered more or less the main choices of the original song mixes.
Think of the applied reverb on main vocal and overall reverberation, distance of the drums in the mix, sound of the bass, highs of the guitars.
Strange mixes Radio Head sometimes does, by the way...
