Squarepusher Theme - hardware only cover/recreation

Описание: Covering the uncoverable one step at a time... Also 10,000 subscribers??? Thankyou so much for each and every click/like - none of this was particularly planned, so any engagement at all is a surprise!

It's been a while since I've uploaded one of these, and I have to say, 'Theme' was a real challenge. I've been obsessed with this track for years, so finally getting round to covering it has been something of a weight lifted!

This is a slightly abridged version of 'Theme', mainly because I didn't want to push the video out to 20 mins, but hopefully it gives an idea of how you'd go about leveraging some newer tools with older ones.

I don't consider myself a bassist at all; my main instrument is guitar, and bass is just one of those other things... the bass in question is a "Vintage" Sting-Ray copy which I found years ago in a charity shop for £80. The strings have never been changed, the intonation is sketchy and the 'G' tuning peg keeps falling off. Serves a purpose though.

Sequencing and playback was done in the Hapax. I DI'd the bass into Protools, which I also used to apply EQ/compression to each instrument in lieu of a desk and multi-track tape. Final mix then went out to the Revox, which is what's on the video.

Thanks for watching!!
