    I really don't mean to kick off a discussion or play the punk gatekeeper (because I listened to more pop punk than "real" punk rock, too) but this shows how far off modern pop punk is from its punk roots, which were originally a countermovement to bloated 1970s rock music, now featuring multi-tracked guitars and all other kinds of production layering trickery, too. Not saying that it is bad because production made those records a lot more enjoyable and they were intended to be fun and entertaining, so nothing wrong with it, I just find it funny.

    • @SugarpillProd
      @SugarpillProd  Год назад +1

      I think that's just part of most genres evolutions tbh. You can even take specific bands from those eras and see how they progressed musically - like how Minor Threat went from a very raw hardcore punk band, which eventually led to Fugazi's, who helped pioneer a more complex, art punk style.
      I love the basic, raw punk sound as much as anyone, but if that was all punk ever was, I'd find it pretty boring tbh. That's part of why punk is great though, there's so much variety that for every sub-genre you're not into, there's probably 10 more you will enjoy.

    • @SugarpillProd

      I think that early style still exists in some bands - The Chats would be a pretty good example of this - but obviously as technology progresses, most people want to sound "good", and I suppose this style of production is mostly associated with that idea.

    Which reaper theme do you use?
    Nice videos btw!

    • @SugarpillProd
      @SugarpillProd  Год назад +1

      Thanks! I think this was just the default theme (though I could be wrong) and I've recently switched to using the "Smooth 6" theme, which you'll probably see in future videos. I've just finished doing a fresh install of windows, so if this was in fact something other than the default theme, I can't recall what it was called.
      Though I highly recommend "Smooth 6" if you're looking for a new one!

      Anthem is actually using inverted chords as far as I can tell. That's how you get those cool sounds that aren't quite straightforward power chords.

    What would you recommend for the amp tone for the initial recording?

    • @SugarpillProd
      @SugarpillProd  Год назад

      It really depends on the genre you're working in. Anything punk related, I wouldn't go crazy with the gain, unless you're going for like a Pennywise sound or something.
      Typically the cleaner you can keep things, the better it will sound once you start layering everything together.
      Something like a JCM sound would be a good starting point though. Hope that helps!

    Do you use the same take for right and left? Record two tracks at the same time and just pan them? Love your vids!

    • @SugarpillProd
      @SugarpillProd  Год назад +2

      Thanks! You'll need to record the same part two separate times, then hard pan them. If you just copy and paste the same part, all you're doing is doubling the volume - you're not actually getting the stereo effect of a true double. You'll also run into some phase issues by doing, so always record things properly to avoid this. Hope that helps!

    i live by three principles: never embellish anything too much on production, never do on a studio anything you can't replicate live on your own and never break your guitar in a concert if it's your only one

    • @SugarpillProd
      @SugarpillProd  Год назад +8

      Eh, I'm not a big advocate of the 2nd point. I get the logic behind it, but I think that thought process can be quite limiting in the studio - especially if you're just a duo or 3-piece.
      Even just double tracking guitars technically wouldn't be "replicable" live for any band made up of three people.

      @nathandorsey9145 Год назад +1

      ​@@SugarpillProd It also to me ignores that a lot of those techniques exist to make up for the fact that a live performance hits differently than a recording. Like a distorted guitar or bass drum have a presence that a recording can't replicate especially when coming out of headphones or a car speaker.
