totally craving Dante's I have to add a basket to my drum kit now

They were sure right about the DORK thing...

Does Steve really wear his guitar strap in a conventional way in this video?

Dear STEVE, I will always indulge you, I shall not get tired learning from you. Thank you for decades of passion and wit. Rest in Power x!

I miss you Steve! Love love love to all this people. Thank you for this

I’ve never met Steve, but he was and is the mentor he never knew he was to me. I record sound for film, but was a musician back in the day. I have a Steve Albini folder in my email with any interviews I can find with Steve on KZbin an online. I’ve learned so much about microphones and how sound frequencies work together and too many things to mention from Steve. Along with that, I find him to be hilarious and highly intelligent. I’ve always thought if I had the money to burn, I would travel to Chicago and pay a day’s recording fee just to hang out with him and talk about microphones and experience what it’s like to just be in that studio and to meet Steve. Thank you Steve Albini for being Steve Albini. #thankyoustevealbini

We oughta name a street after you Call it Albini Imagine a pavement so black Backwards it's iniblA

These videos are of great importance, humanity should be grateful Steve shared his knowledge Forever grateful ❤️

The rubber ones that look like a road cone with 3 rings on a stick with a string attached are the best cheap solution I've ever found & use all the time, if they fall out on stage you just put them back with the stem really easily & you can adjust how far in you want them for whatever application. Definitely the best option for musicians, the last thing you want is to have to search a dark filthy stage for the one you dropped & put it back in with your filthy fingers. The foam ones are only good for blocking out as much sound as possible for sleeping or power tools etc but those are the free ones at venues so you have to try and balance them just inside the entrance of the ear canal enough to stop the cymbals and guitar amps from shredding your ears but not so much to shut out all the top end... and then they fall out when you start dancing or nodding with enthusiasm and you have to pick them up off the filthy floor with your filthy fingers etc... Before venues started handing them out (very recently really) I would just grab a wedge of toilet paper and make small plugs with that, surprisingly effective.

That shirt is great, I want one. Wonderful tribute and I’m glad you guys are carrying on, Electrical is a special place.

Condolences. I still can’t shake it… what a loss!!

i touched down in chicago two months ago to see the outside of the building, it felt great even if i didn't have any money at the time to record anything inside so glad to see the street being renowed to our man's honor :)

Thank you. ❤

Love you Steve ❤ we all miss you in this world, thank you for all your amazing art

Well deserved tribute. Brought tears to my eyes.

Hermosoooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for posting this. I’m glad Kim was there. 🖤✨

Que homenaje más bonito!!!!!! Las canciones fueron increiblessss!!!!!! Dios bendiga a Steve Albini!!!!!! Gracias ELECTRICAL AUDIO por compartir esto!!!! Es hermoso!!!!! Thanks You ELECTRICAL AUDIO for Share this beautifull video!!!!!

If Sandburg's poem were a person, Steve's a top candidate. "Flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job..." Loving it, and getting us all to love it. Ambassador for the city and to our souls. Thank you for everything.

I will be in love with Kim forever, thanks for being here to honor this great great man, even if he didnt think of himself that way, he was.

So the city of Chicago named a street after the guy from the bands R*PEMAN and RUN NI**ER RUN

Thanks for posting this video. I loved hearing from his wife and pals.

#ThankyouSteveAlbini from 🇮🇹 with love

❤

That’s lovely. ❤

Thanks for sharing this! I hope to work in this studio one day.

Great job, all. Steve will live forever, all over the world. Learned so much from him.

I'm glad that Steve stopped being such a prick later in his life... Cuz man he was a prick. I met him maybe 15 years difference between and what a difference that time made. I think just generally seemed happier in his life... Or maybe he just got it out of his system.

I missed the 10khz tone completely 😂

Thank you so much for posting this, Team Electrical Audio. It’s so thoughtful of you, and lets those of us impacted by the man have a way of processing and grieving him. Much love and respect to y’all. ~Nico

😍

Thanks so much for this ❤️

This is fucked up.... I was in high school 40 fucking years ago when I traded the Meat Puppets' Up on the Sun with a friend for Big Black's Atomizer and they quickly became my favourite band. I can't believe these guys are now getting old and dying. WTF? They should all live forever. At least their music will.

Thank you, Steve. And thanks for putting this up so we can all watch it

most of the time i think don’t tell all your secrets to us the best part of it is to be in your precence listening

Had the great privilege of zoom chat with Steve for about 40 minutes. I was giddy for the first 10 odd & Steve sensed that & put me at ease. The mark of a great person he was, apart from his knowledge, was that he offered to do the zoom around midnight his time, to cater for the OS time difference. I wouldn’t have it considering he would’ve already had a long day in the studio. ..we settled for 7pm ish Chicago time…I’ll cherish this memory & blessed to meet him. What a great person 🖤🙏🏻

❤❤❤

❤❤❤

Thank you for this. I was lucky enough to have a few interactions with Steve way back when... and I think the world will be unravelling his influence as an incredible engineer and a an incredibly solid human being for a long time to come. He didn't need to give me the time of day as a nobody teenager publishing a tiny fanzine, he didn't need to send us hand written letters with funny drawings on them, but he did. Also, changed the landscape of modern sound. RIP.

Very touching to see everyone saying such kind things about Steve. Never got to meet him but unanimously he sounds like a true class act. RIP to an audio legend.

Wow this was very touching. RIP to a legend. That street name is well deserved

xo!

Gracias Eléctrical Audio por continuar su legado!!!!
