The Strokes - Barely Legal

The Strokes - One Way Trigger

The Strokes  The New Abnormal 2020(HQ)

I recorded all of The Strokes' album 'Is this It' in one take. Not perfect obviously, and I left a bunch of mistakes in, but that's fine. I think it definitely turned out better than dookie though. 

Drums were tracked and mixed mono the same way I did one the song 'Is This It' a few weeks ago (kick, snare top, snare bottom, one overhead, and a room mic). Bass just straight in with a DI and then through a waves plugin amp. 

Guitars were done through a DI with waves plugin amps as well, but also tracked through Ian's crate, mic'd with a 57. (Thanks to Ian for also being my tab page turner while recording guitars)

The vocal track was done with my shitty Sony F96 and went through different waves plugin amps for different songs.

The entire album was mixed on board. Only kick, snare, and vocal tracks used minimal compression, and all tracks used on board EQ.

Here's the breakdown of the songs:

0:00 Is This It
2:34 Modern Age
6:08 Soma
8:44 Barely Legal
12:40 Someday
15:45 Alone, Together
19:00 Last Nite
22:16 Hard To Explain
26:04 New York City Cops
29:43 Trying Your Luck
33:11 Take It Or Leave It

The Smiths - _Hatful of Hollow_ (1984)

Can't wait for you to go to sleep
It's a need I have
to direct the hours you reject
The moments left behind
You can't come, it's the rules I've made
It's a need I crave
Don't be mad at me, I promise
I will tell you later
Sit here doing nothing on the surface
Sitting around my room looks like a pure mess
I know

I'll tell you one thing
In that peace and calm
A world without all of you I see
Powered by fury and dreaming

Tend to overdo my need for space,
It's my picky ways
Don't come unless you're called upon
You know what to look for
It ain't the time to go through things
and find out what it brings
I won't lock her out, I can't remember 
why I hate her.
