What's your favorite saturation plug-in? I have many faves but check out the mixing portion of this vid for THE one I love for this particular vibe. Also, isn't Sean just slaying it so hard throughout this entire video? Such a beast!
Saturn 2, Softube Saturator, Kilohearts Faturator
They’re all great for different applications.
@@BradsGonnaPlay Love it!
The Soundtoys Level Loc is classic, also the upgraded version Devil Loc is perfect. It gives you more controls. I´ve recently tried the Locness from Tone Empire but I think the Level Loc plugins from Soundtoys are simply better and cleaner.
I find myself using the BPB Saturator fairly often, it does the "thing" that I want perfectly
@@superandrd Rad! I'll have to check that one out!
that snare is damn crispy, jumps out of the speakers
Thanks man!
May I ask which snare it is? There are a few on the link
50% Nick Offerman, 50% John C. Reilly, 100% Wyld Antelope.
LOLOLOVE IT!
60% of the time, it works every time
These are becoming my favorite videos to watch, we need more jake n sean
yaaaay!!! Glad you're enjoying them!
Definitely! I could watch these 2 guys jam all day, love listening them at work!
Woke up this morning with this tune in my head but couldn't figure out what song it was...😢had to scratch my brain for a bit... but then I remembered! Such a good simple yet vibey track. Currently sitting outside listening and watching Chicago land get covered with snow ❄️
woke up this mornin, got some gabagool...
I just want to say these videos and this series are so valuable to small-time session people like myself.
I think I love you Mr. Moustache and Mr Bassman ❤️💜
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying this little series!
Please keep them coming, can't get enough Sean. Big thanks for your great backing drums and bring these tasty bits to us mere mortals.
Thanks! There should be more to come!

Here for the antelope running in the background footage ♥️ sounds killer boys.
Hahaha! Thanks man! LOOOOVE your new album BTW.
Thanks for the mixing tips! Also, the EQ-ing @ 20:20 is so relatable 😂 Love these vids!

That was great thanks Jake ! Had the chance to make an interview with Sean : he's a great bass player and a very kind person 🙏
Thanks! He might just be the nicest person in the planet.
@@JakeReedmusic you put him in the planet? D:
Its amazing! 🤩
Thank you!
Great stuff man!!🙏🏿
Thanks!
wonderful
Yus.......... this here is gold
Thanks dude!
ME GUSTAN MUCHO ESTOS VÍDEOS, MÁS PORFAVOR
My first bass was a 76 Mustang I got for like $200 in 88'. It lived in a closet after I upgraded to a full size modern bass. Fast forward, and I see J.T. Cure nabbed one and was super excited about it. Looked it up and it turns out my first bass is one of the Belle's of my stable and I had no idea lol. Never loved the tone back then. I dug the bright 90's modern RHCP tone and that ain't the Mustang. Pulled it out about a year ago, set it up and damn it sounds good. I actually wound up tracking with it a week later and have used it a few times since then haha. Funny how things come round like that.
Absolutely amazing sound. so much work behind that
Here we go again, awesome sound! Took me a while before i got that joke tame impala/wild antelope though... noice. Maybe its the language barrier :) MORE MORE MORE
Haha! Thanks! More to come!
luv your mood
Awww shucks thanks!
That's a sweet cloud over your kit!
Thanks dawg!
i just want to be in this band. so fun to play over.
legend
Thanks dude! Stoked to hear those tracks we did live with Sean!
cant believe the takes are not quantized, its soooooooo tight 🥵 how does one even get this precise timing?
Feel and practice. (Practice, practice....)
Thanks! Lots of practice and doing sessions with a click. Perhaps I should do a video on this! Always room for improvement though!
Indeed!
Hire Pro/ Great musicians 👍🏻
Keep it live yeah babe!❤️
WOOOO 🙌
Actually metronome works as a snap/clap sometimes haha sounds awesome! 👏👏👏
LOL
Jake, I find that playing to a click is easier when you’re always on beat. Would like to hear how you handle click on songs that have a swing to the beat, where the 2 and 4 aren’t always exactly midway between the 1 and the 3. Thanks, the music and videos rock.
Totally! It all depends on the song, of course, but most modern pop music is so programmed/gridded these days there's not much room for pushing or laying back on the snare. I think it's a bit easier when there's more swing because there's more room to be human ... the tiny discrepancies in the spaces between the notes or playing "in the cracks" make it easier somehow, because it's not so straight up and down.
wyld. 🥁🔥
so wyld
The drum beat and sound you’ve got here reminds me of MJ’s Billie Jean.
Love that hithat ! Sounds mean
Thanks!
Drums sound killer as usual. Is Sean using the noble Di/pre before the 1073 or going directly to the 1073? Bass sounds really great here as well.
Hey Jake! Congrats again for a great IN SESSION video :) // I have a couple of questions: Do you run the whole drum set through the neve pre amps? // do you use Distressor for the drums? :D
Where I can find the tab of this great base line?
great stuff, thanks jake. best tame drum sounds are on the first two records though i reckon
Thanks dude! Oooo I love that sound too! This video was more of the Currents thing 🙌
@@JakeReedmusic oh for sure, which might I add, you've nailed here. idk about you but i've always found that mushy, gritty, blasted bit-reduced sound of the first two albums to be much more elusive - but i think its honestly 70% a mixing thing. pretty sure he re-tracked them into the crappy preamps of an old boss digital interface to give it a 16 bit crushed flavour, then level locked and dba 165. it is the perfect soup.
@@elderchildren yes, it's a beautiful thing and I feel like the drums aren't quite as muffled so it adds to that soup.
That mic stand though.. 🤣
That snare drum sound is ACES! Any samples used?
Thanks! No samples. Check out the mix rundown in the last part of the vid!
Do you have anything on getting a good sound / recording / processing on snare-off snare drumming? I like the ringing and overtone but adding eq, saturation and compression gets tricky; doesn’t take distortion basically as well as a snared snare.
Again… that snare. Very nice sound.
Would love to play with you
Thanks! Hopefully someday!
Great video dude. I love not having cymbals on the set for these kind of vibes, because once they're on the set, people can't just not hit them:)
And I have this bad habit of playing 4 on the floor bass drum on these songs, how you did it (just playing the bass drum on 1 and 3) sounds so much better.
I started practicing without cymbals after watching a B.B. King tv performance of The Thrill Is Gone. He had hi-hats of course. It really works when you want to compress the snot out of the drums.
Totally! And, yes, there's always a fine line between "to play 1 and 3 or four on the floor" ... it's either Billie Jean or full on disco. Just depends on how the song wants to sit groove wise. I'm a big fan of trying things out, so even just recording a chorus and listening back can reveal a lot about what groove is needed for the song to dance!
Love this. great to be a fly on the wall watching you guys create and iterate.
«Coachella approved» 😂😂😂
LOL so good
I need to find a drummer to jam with like this and record!
You guys so tight, can't even hear that click, lol
The breath your hats have. Super cool. Is that an effect?
It’s mostly a result of the heavy compression!
Can you play Numb by Men I Trust with Sean?
“I love not hitting a crash at the top of a chorus”
You cheeky son of a gun.
There's so much space without a crash clouding everything up and everyone knows it's the chorus. No need to telegraph it lol!
That snare sounds seriously tight! I saw in another comment you said it was tuned medium. Is it the compression + gate that gives it that sort of higher-pitched decay? Sorry if that doesn't make sense 😂
A lot of it is the compression/saturation but also the room plug-in I’m using. Check out the mix rundown in the last part of the vid to hear it solo’d.
Damnnnn taping the shell is genius. How did you have that snare tuned? The snares sound super lush
Thanks! Yes, believe it or not taping the shell worked lol ... probably b/c it's chrome over brass? Snare is tuned medium. It's important for it not to be too low for this vibe. Then, saturate to taste!
What video is that of Sean on Vaseline
what's the knee mic you're using at 6:07? Thanks!
French teuch, Awesome !! 🔊🤩==>🤩🔊==>
I like the accent on the Ands. The upbeats give it a nice je ne sais quoi
What snare is that? and how did you tune it?? Its just the sound im looking for. I would love to see a video just dediacted to that snare sound and how you tuned it!
It’s a newer Gretsch chrome over brass with a coated ambassador tuned medium with some cloth muffling taped up by the mic. Then, there’s a heavy amount of compression and saturation doing the rest.
I like Jake's Hobbit hairstyle
How would I tune snare like this? Like Hz or a certain note. Tight vid bud
I tune it medium tension and then muffle to taste.
dat snare doe
You did it! and with UREI Click haha Do you (or Sean) always use that one?
When I first started recording myself I wanted to use the same click they almost always use in the studios here in LA, which is the UREI click, to be able to practice hearing that sound and getting comfortable with it. That way I would hopefully somehow be a little less nervous when I was actually in a bigger studio. Haha! Maybe it helped a little but it’s part of my template now so I always use it.
@@JakeReedmusic that’s great and I think the same way. Thanks for sharing it.
How do you have so little hihat bleed? In my recordings the hihat is so loud and annoying, and when i try to gate, the loud hihat still comes through on snare hits. Is it the room? Recording in a concrete basement with treating above kit and a carpet.
It might be reflections from your concrete room. A couple of things I do: make sure the snare mic is placed so that it’s rejecting the hihat as much as possible, and play the hihat quieter.
what snare are you using? Sounds amazing
Thanks! Newish Gretsch chrome over brass 5x14
Awesome! Are you both hearing the click while recording? I think I would find it difficult to listen to both the drummer and the click track.
Haha! Yes, we’re both listening to the click, although I would guess Sean’s is at a lower volume than mine.
@@JakeReedmusic Cool. I guess I wouldn't groove like you guys either way... ;)
Everyone’s got their own groove!
So...any plans on making a tame impala inspired drums pack?? 😁 Super insightful video!
Actually … I sort of already did but it’s not out yet 🤫
@@JakeReedmusic Hype!
the EV 635 dick mic, i saw you do this once way back and i have been using it from time to time, it really adds a lot to snare and kick ambience because of the omni pattern
Yeah, it can be a great sound in the right context! Sometimes I’ll use an M88 too.
Your hair and beard lookin' like Africa era Toto. Epic.
HAHAHA!!! I had to shave it for a TV show, and now have to let it all grow back before the mustache can stand alone.
@@JakeReedmusic Dude, what TV show?
It's called Mrs. American Pie on Apple TV ... should be out in October I think?
@@JakeReedmusic Excellent. Noted. Thanks.
Hi Jake, what mic stand are you using here?
On which mic(s)?
@@JakeReedmusic for the SM7! I'm looking for one just like it
@@joep869 Ultimate Support MC-125 Professional Studio Boom Microphone Stand
@@JakeReedmusic thank you Jake! :)
Yes. Also. I spy m160
YES!!!
Yea 🙌
no traffic on the extra mile!
It's true! Got that line from the title of Ricky Minor's book!
@@JakeReedmusic stealing it for my own lexicon
@@sam-you-is I keep it stored in the back of my brain specifically for moments like this.
Como se llama esa cancion
Wyld Antelope
Like the "ands"..
Ahhh nice! Maybe it wasn’t such a bad idea after all? Lol!
two Toms up for no crashing going in to chorus
👍 👍 🥁 🥁
Hey man, in this you are kind of channeling Ed Greene's energy from his magnificant take on The Second Arrangement by Steely Dan. Very similar feel, fills and sound.
/watch?v=v0MLTiL40YA
Love Ed Greene!
What goin on with that snare
Mustache? Never do i want to see a video again without your EPIC stash..... you know wtf I'm talkin bout. NEVER
There’s something inside you…it’s hard to explain
Cant get over how the keys melody sounds like ed sheerans bad habits. Kills the tame impala vibe for me
Im not gay, but I Love you .
haha!
What I hear in TI mixes is a surprising amount of high mid on the kick
Just listen to feels like we only go backwards and really tune into the kick
Is that George Washington on the back?
sample pack sample pack SAMPLE PACK SAMPLE PACK SAMPLE PACK SAMPLE PACK PACK SAMPLE PACK SAMPLE PACK
I like the way you think.
Dude you can’t even hear the fucking metronome on that second take Jesus
LOL! The hilarious part is I cranked the click 12 dB in the mix just to blast it even harder.
@@JakeReedmusic Just shows how insanely tight you two play. Both of you inspire me like crazy with your feel and your ability to play exactly what's needed for the song, no more no less.
Just a couple of hunks playing a groove….who cares….For your rhythm session tracking!!!
