kurt ballou/godcity in new TapeOp

[colonel kurtz]

don't know if anyone else has seen it, but there's a pretty sweet interview with ballou in there where he goes over a lot his techniques/workflow/etc.

 

[colonel kurtz]

damn...a sweet-ass article by one of the best engineers in heavy music, and no one else saw the shit?

if nothing else, it's worth checking out for his hi-hat bleed contraption alone :zombie:

 

[AllanD]

Badass! I can't wait for my issue to come in.

 

[Jahbulon]

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Aya same here, used to get the free one here in Ireland and now for some reason we can't get the paid one since they cancelled the free one, I wasn't able to get it and neither could a mate of mine.

I miss it- by far the best read for me, I get anooyed with alot of the other magazines which often have similar articles every month and keep it simple to appeal to the general masses

 

[colonel kurtz]

i tried taking pics of the pages...totally indecipherable though

sorry dudes

 

[Let it burn...]

yeah, can't get tape op here too. someone care to scan and pm?

I've found this quote on the tape op board:

"Indie pop productions require more insight as to the song and lyrics and what kind of feeling the songwriter's trying to evoke. When you're recording a metal band you KNOW what feeling they're trying to evoke. You just think "Satan, Satan, Satan." When you're eq'ing the bass, you're like "Satan, Satan, Satan." The snare drum - "Satan, Satan." It's more the technical challenge of, "How do I achieve the maximum amount of Satan?"

-Kurt Ballou
