I rewatch this every so often because it’s got some great nuggets in it. And it always breaks my heart when Tim says at the beginning that more track breakdowns will come in the following weeks, but then they never came 😢
Same here man, I watch this every couple of weeks. I hope he starts doing more of these, no other youtube videos are as easy to learn from, they are a slog to watch. I just wanna see what someone did in logic.
Oh my god please do make more of these😭I so eargly seeking for this kind of walkthrough. You guys(Tim, and Tyler both of you) are the person that impacted me the most...so I really wish to get closer to you.
Yes Tim, you are alive!
Oh and this was a wealth of knowledge that we saved for our future podcast episode on this song. Thanks for sharing!
There's a podcast?!?!?!
OK, welp there goes my weekend
@@AtariFX Welcome aboard! Hope you learn a thing or two 😊
I put all your new singles on my "Summer Songs" playlist and they make driving at sunset, with all the windows down, arm hanging out the window, magical.
could you pass me the playlist?
@@francoherrera3514 I have tried twice and it got removed almost immediately.
I absolutely love your music! Tyler’s voice is amazing and Tim you are so talented! You guys have meant more to me than you will ever know. Your music has helped me through a very tough time and I’m so grateful. Thank you so much! I have all your albums and listen to them all the time! Sadly I missed your concert this year but will look forward to you guys coming back to Scotland!
That you guys crammed this many sounds into this song, and that in the end result, everything sits with air around it, is a genuine credit to your production, as well as your mix and mastering engineers.
Never did I expect you guys to make a vid showing what’s “under the hood, totally geeking out right now. This made my day!
The old twitch videos were on RUclips for a while, but not on the official channel - I was gutted when I discovered they'd been removed. I'm very grateful Tim has put this one up as I always learn a bunch of new things, and I appreciate the songs even more!
The Midnight: The most underrated band on Earth...
SO TRUE!!!
Without a doubt. I sometimes feel like I’m in on a “special secret” when it comes to this band. lol sounds ridiculous, but they are just otherworldly good.
Well more like Mixers, not band. But Great nontheless
Bro.... You have no idea the level of smile that came on my face after seeing a notification for this video.😃😄 Awaiting for the whole album.
Tim your production is insane! In a league of its own. I’m so glad you use Logic, it makes it so easy to see your process and follow along. Sincerely, an extreme appreciator of your music from a production standpoint
This is so cool! Please do more of these. It's really interesting to see the "behind the scenes" of songs we love!
I got so scared when this got deleted off of Twitch. Thanks for re-uploading! This is extremely helpful for figuring out the magic you do with the vocals!
I've seen no other band who generously shares the ton of work behind that goes in the production process of a track. This again shows us how much this band loves and believes in their art and creativity.
Taking time to trace back every single step right from the beginning is phenomenal. I don't think it'll be wrong to say that this band not only entertains people but also educate in their own way which makes them stand out from the crowd 💜💙
seen them live 3 times, every single time they, and their tour mates, have the energy and enthusiasm of a college band playing their first sold out gigs :D do not miss them.. fly across the country to see them if you have to.. take a train.. take a bus.. they are just worth it
He said, "TIGHT!"
And I felt it in my soul. This shit is indeed tight.
This song has always reminded me of selections from Harry Manfredini's score for Slaughter High. I love that sound!
Cant express how much I love your style of music. Brings back so many memories and feelings from back in the day. Please keep it up forever!
As an amateur musician/producer, I love these Tim! Absolutely invaluable. Please keep doing them as much as you reasonably have time for! Also as a long-time fan, the new album is amazing so far and don't let anyone else tell you guys otherwise! Rock on.
Just found this walkthrough. Super interesting to following your process like this. Especially for someone like me who records and produces music in Logic on a daily basis. Thanks!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this incredible breakdown!!!
16:15 When I first heard Neon Medusa I thought there was no way it was a live musician - and then I saw Royce play it live and realized I was wrong. He's such a great addition to already such tremendous musicianship!
So cool to see it all broken down. Can't believe how many tracks you use! Really love you music
That reference to Dakota's 'Angry Men' is absolutely fucking amazing.
Tim it was a true privilege meeting you outside the Glasgow gig, and I hope you managed to get your coffee!! 😅👍 Thanks for this video 🙂 would be really nice to see more breakdown videos like this ❤️🎹🎷🎶🙂
This song is such a banger. I discovered you guys recently and fell in love
Ah, a nice follow up on SonicAcademy's Comeback Kid! Thanks Tim.
Your drums hit very hard especially the kick in your recent songs
Been here since days of thunder and can’t wait for more!
This is awsome. Thank you, Tim! Your stuff is always both, extremely well produced creatively and technically, as well as perfectly mixed. I can't believe that one single person combines all these skills. I'm making electronic music since 30 years and I'm still fighting with mixing (volumes, frequencies, stereo image) up to this day. Maximum respect to you and Tyler for creating the most emotionally captivating music on the planet 🙏.
Tim, thanks for putting this on RUclips, many of us rarely have a chance to catch you live!
I love how your mix has more cymbals and hihats! The final CYHOD mix drowned out some of that cymbal top end. Still sounds amazing, but this takes the cake!
I love how he sounds so perfectly 50% brit and 50% American
All whilst being Danish.
@@silhouette82 i thought he was australian
i know its been a year, but would love to see more track breakdowns! i bought your course on Sonic Academy and its been invaluable. would love to see one for Neon Medusa, America 2, Explorers, Los Angeles, Land Locked Heart. definitely Shadows! thanks so much for sharing so much of your knowledge and experience. you’re a great teacher. many times people can be great musicians and terrible teachers. but i love the way you break these tracks down. i wish more artists would do that! and i selfishly would love as much of that as possible lol
Heard your "pre" mix and the final mix at the same time. The small, subtle differences are very interesting. Once again a great song.
Would love to see the break down of Clean Eyes. You may have heard me screaming "Clean Eyes" over and over again at you in Philly last month, haha!
This is one of the best songs made in the last few years. The rush it makes you feel is surreal!
Tim, what is the sound at 56:04? You use this patch/sound used in many of your newer tracks. It's a unique sound and really adds to the atmosphere of your tracks.
Heartbeat City is not only the best Cars record, but one of the best records of the 80s in my opinion. Love that Mutt Lange snare.
I love when artists do that kind of breakdowns. I my mind i can pretend it's me who explains the music to my fans 😎🙈
I listen to your songs everyday while I’m at work and it always makes the day feel better the second days of thunder starts.
I hope you do more of these behind the scenes videos showing how you create your tracks..
My son loves your music too and he played your track JASON to his music class..there all fans now lol
so cool you do these things
Whoa. Gonna take me a while to fully watch and digest this video but thank you for posting it, I've never edited more than about 4 tracks together for silly joke mp3's for friends but I know this is gonna be fascinating.
ROCKMAN! dude i loved this breakdown, thank you so much for sharing - love the geekyness and nerdiness of all of this. Its why we love your music, because its made with so much passion and detail
Aaaaah, the beautiful puzzle of mixing a track 💕
I'm very in love with your music and i'll always be a big and loyal fan! Never stop making music, and thanks for sharing this
❤ from Burundi 🇧🇮
Awesome stuff guys, always fun to see how your favorite tracks were made
Tim, wanted to add that your live drum work on this song just adds an electricity that the recording can't match. But that's why concerts are so thrilling...
I LOVE that you went thru it all like this! I'm a big fan of this track! I would love if you went thru in even more detail! ...and I LOVE seeing the other enhancements you use to punctuate things (like the thunder clap, and I think I saw "jet engine" in there somewhere? I would've loved to see how each of those fits in the mix too! I personally LOVE those little hidden details!).
Thanx a lot!!
Would be great to discover more of your producing/mixing tips
Legends.
I absolutely didn´t expect this! Amazing guys and very lovely to hear Tim 😎👌
Thank you. So much.
Please do more of these!!!! You're awesome bro!
This is simply wonderful, thank you so much! I wish you could do something like this for your all time classics like Gloria or The Comeback Kid :)
Great job guys. Amazing music. Looking forward for more ♥️
Everyone here is good people, I guarantee it.
Cannot wait
I love your music - I am excited to deep dive with this video. Thank you for the great tunes.
New subscriber lots of respect from Guyana south america
love those peter griffin fart 80's vibes sounding synths
I think this one unseated Vampires or River of Darkness as my favorite. I’ve probably listened to it two dozen times or more and I still get chills. I’m not sure if it’s possible to top this one, but I’d love to be proven wrong.
Wow......that's a no from me.
@@Jaha575 to each their own. I don’t really know of a song by them I don’t like, there are so many good options.
@@ryanrouse5590 Vampires and River of Darkness are both incredible…this is a bit of a departure from that imo.
@@Jaha575 I’m aware that it’s very different. I’m not comparing them, I’m saying that those two were my favorite songs by The Midnight prior to the release of this song. Change Your Heart Or Die is my favorite song by The Midnight, as of now.
@@Jaha575 I like the evolution of the sound. Remember the band "Everclear"? They released multiple albums that all sounded the same. Boring. Plus it's important for the band to feel like they are learning and changing.
Tim, I just wanted to thank you for using the word "rad". It was rad that you did that.
You guys are doing a fantastic job. Thanks for sharing your experience, it's interesting. Great music, I want to be like you in this 😊
LETS GO I LOVE THESE VIDEOS
25:45 - that chorus/clean blended tone is beautiful. Is that a pedal? And is it recorded in stereo or doubled up?
Absolutely love it
best track on the album
Tim is an absolute legend!
Super video! We need more like this!
I miss these live streams with Tim so much…
Thank You for this video! We need Brooklyn. Friday. Love. to be next single released.
Awesome, thoroughly enjoyed the breakdown of The Comeback Kid on SonicAcademy. Haven't got through this but very much looking forward to it!
Same vibes :)
You live!! And ALIVE!
This and deep Blue are on repeat on my Spotify... Needless to say I'm in the top 1% of The Midnight listeners on there lmao
Jack of all trades is a master of none, "but oftentimes better than a master of one"
Arpeggio... soft G lol Love you guys!
You mentioned this track being massive, in your opinion, where is the balance of "keep adding more" vs less is more?
This is pure art.
That Casio synth is great
Awesome!!!!We love You !!!
Excellent as always. Runaway by Dakota is one of my favourite songs.
From a technical sound engineering point of view Id just like to point out that IM A HUGE FAN, OMG THE MIDNIGHT RULES!!!!! 🥰🤟🤘
Love it! Can't wait to see you guys at the Van Buren!
Hear the beautiful music!!
I need the solo sound for Devil Make a Deal!!!
dink dink dink
Thanks for sharing this very informative presentation. Keep up the good work guys. 👍 We love your music ❤
Holy shit! What a treat!
Holy F#@k... this track has 130+ stems???
Oh heck ya!
Hello Tim, great stuff lad! thank you for sharing your time and knowledge with us all! Also could you tell me what OSX are you using ?
Tim, you need to read an old 80s phone book to us while you're at it. Would also listen to you read the stapled pamphlets that come with prescription medications.
We want a more detailed video of ur music production! Love from Bangladesh!
The midnight rule!!!
Thanks for doing this video! Can you explain the solo guitar sound a bit more?
epic. love these videos. teaches me a bunch of tricks with logic i didn't know that i didn't know :-P
Does the midnight run tracks in Logic like this for their live set or are they running Ableton or something? - side note, I visited Miami for the first time this summer and had my Midnight playlist going the whole time!!
I know you don't read these but on the off chance you do i really think you should go back to mixing the records not that the new one is bad but all the older mixes feel so much better and please come back with more song breakdowns maybe shadows
Is the Dakota Song "Angry Men" ?
Unas de mis canciones favoritas ☺️☺️
