Out today: The Beautiful Things the Cold Brings, the debut full length record from CO’s own
@talkingxpoint . I had the pleasure of engineering, mixing, and mastering this entire project, and it is an incredibly special record. Any fans of emo, post-hardcore, 2000s ex-christian bands, or anything in that arena will find something they love in these songs. Also, swipe to unlock an ancient
@jarensamples memory.
I had to post a bunch of gear photos per usual. The star of the show (to me) was the
@ludwigdrumshq Black Beauty that
@ryannxvx picked up for the session, which translated to my favorite sounding snare I’ve ever recorded or mixed. Better ingredients, better pizza, well, you know the rest.
The guitar rig was pretty fun - we ran Jaren’s pedalboard into my
@scienceamps Mother PREAMP, sending straight into the FX loop return (power amp) of my 5150 III, into the
@atlascabinets 4x12. Riffs powered by an
@espguitars Arctic Metal with a single EMG 81 bridge pickup. Throw some mics on that bad boy and you’ve got a stew goin’.
1,000 thank you’s to
@talkingxpoint for the trust, patience, and certified club bangers. Congrats guys!
