ChevChelios Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 " Common issues are – the vocals were recorded in an unideal location, such as a closet" lolAs funny as it sounds, its a ver common DYI phenomenon, cause of the small space you can get very dry recordings if you put a bunch of sheets and shit on the walls, which is good if you have a shit room.

eggssell Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 all the youtube artists do the cupboard thang. you see it in their collabs. they will receive the beats from whoeever, then go to their cupboard with the beats playing in their head phones and record their vocals.and i remember in the 90's the toilet was somewhat used as an echo effect. i cant remember if it was de la, atcq or digital underground but im sure someone said theyd do that.

eggssell Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 hows this. nate dogg recorded his parts for regulate in a cupboard!! even better is warren g sampled young guns from his vcr for the song ha ha ha.Warren G reveals that he and Nate Dogg's classic song was recorded under unusual circumstances.In an interview with DJ Skee, Warren G revealed behind-the-scenes details about the recording process of his classic song, "Regulate," which featured a notable performance by the late Nate Dogg."I had an apartment on Long Beach Boulevard in San Antonio, and I didn't have no furniture. [Laughing] I had dog shit all over the floor, and I had two bedrooms. In one of my bedrooms, all I had was studio equipment. I did the sample, plugged my VCR into the MPC60, sampled [the intro], and after I finished it, I called Nate, and said 'Nate, I got a record I think we should do, and go back-and-forth on it. I think it'd be dope.'"Nate came over, heard it, and was like, 'Damn!' So from there, we hooked up a mic in the closet, and I called my engineer, Greg. He came over and recorded it, and there it is."Perhaps most surprising about the story is that the vocals were never re-recorded. "As long as you got someone who can mix, you'll be alright," added the G Child.fromhttp://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/id.1 ... n-a-closet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
