The idea behind the project is to collaborate online to record these covers.
Although some good friends of mine form the core of the project, the band won't necessarily be the same for every song. We will have guests from around the world participating, mostly on vocals though, at our discretion.
How does it work?
Each guy in the band records their parts (audio tracks and video) at home or at a local studio and sends them to me.
I then put the audio together and mix it. This has been a great exercise for me (mixing). I learn the concept behind the sound of my favorite albums and try a whole bunch of cool techniques attempting to replicate it closely.
I AB my mix with the original song but don't get too crazy about it. It's difficult to get the sound exactly right due to a number of variables. When I get it close enough I stop comparing the two and just get it to sound good (hopefully) from there.
When the final stereo audio track is done I take it to a video editing software and sync everyone's videos to it. After a bit of editing and level/color correction it's ready for KZbin. :)

[@ThiagoCamposOfficial]

We all learned our parts by ear. That's the only way we're able to release it this fast. Paulinho actually recorded his drum parts less than 24h after the original song was out, since drums are the foundation for all others to record over. What takes longer is actually mixing, editing, post-production. Just playing the song 1-2 days would be enough, but instead we needed 8 for the whole thing, especially since life gets in the way. :) Thanks!

[@nickmorrisdrums1614]

The drummer is ridiculously good.

[@nathanlawrence656]

Yup

Yeah, they've been doing so since the start of this tour! Pretty cool! :)

[@glacier2win]

That must be an honor.

[@ThiagoCamposOfficial]

You made onto Dream Theaters' Live show too. Great job guys.

[@ThiagoCamposOfficial]

Marcos de Moraes Tem show do BAD SALAD com abertura do VRA (Dream Theater Cover) aí em SAMPA no dia 27/07 (Domingo), no Manifesto Bar.

[@Joanmaofficial]

Love the drumming! so fresh!

[@TastyPotty]

Absolutely incredible. Even more fun to listen to when we don't have to hear LaBrie.

[@andrewman12]

James LaBrie is around 50 years old having had two serious vocal chord injuries. He's lucky to be even able to sing at all. From 1987-1994 there was no one more raw and out loud in the world. He was the best in metal for a time. DT are a new entity these days and so is James.

[@RobertoBarlocci]

What a drummer!

[@erotomania77]

In Rome, Italy, we say "Ve la comandate", something like "You rule!". Really fantastic, a great job!

[@gypzino]

Anche a macerata

[@Bobaphet]

The drums is amazing, his power, his... sensation that he pass for us, is amazing! the keyboard too, fantastic!

[@DianaRinGore]

Wow. That opening guitar riff is hard as hell.

[@7maicon7rosa7]

Melhor banda cover de Dream Theater que eu já vi!!!!

[@wellrock4006]

Concordo mano!

[@BlvckjvckRecordings]

I like the guitar tone in this better than the album's. Has a little aggressiveness to it and doesn't have that mid-spike that the illuminators have.

[@cryptonation2258]

From one drummer to another, you are a legend sir. Every aspect of your playing is GREAT

[@DarkMatterMulab]

How on earth can he have his bass that high! it's uncomprehendable

[@DanilloDetrichi]

your snare is better than mangini kk

[@montruo000000007]

Any 5 dollar chinese pawn shop snare sounds better than Manginis snare on that album

[@claufiudbert]

Too many extraordinary musicans out there. I did a DT-Medley with keys and vocals myself on youtube but this guys are just beyond...

[@michelarnet8535]

Astonishing. How just the 4 instrumental and the (great) singing parts are sounding this huge is the main accomplishment here IMHO

[@zome59]

These guys are doing the best covers worldwide - I´ve searched for the best, and here they are! No Joke: Canada, Japan, Germany...not bad - but these brazilian guys ROCK! Listen to the rest of the DT Covers - and also to their own band "Bad Salad" - worth to support!

[@djpylloz]

Holy crap what a great cover. That guitar tone is so freaking close to john's.

[@MrBreikzero]

The drummer is amazing!

[@gtrkid68]

Absolutely ASS-KICKING! Expertly done, as usual for this lineup with Jungwhan on keyboard and Denis on vocals. Can't wait to see the next Split Screen.

[@basspiker]

freaking awesome... the album is not even released how come we already find such awesome covers !!!

[@RafikKouissar]

precision cover. You guys nailed it to the millisecond!

[@jonaspeter1]

The sound of the drums here is so much more satisfying than in the original.

[@jussijussila654]

I just love that agressive MM Bongo-tone. It sits in prog/metal-mix so perfectly!

[@00breakingboundaries]

Wwwwwooooooowwww. I am speechless!

[@lincolnamari3486]

A tip: you can watch series at flixzone. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@axlparker9569]

@Lincoln Amari Definitely, been using flixzone} for months myself :)

[@jeffreyfrank6998]

@Lincoln Amari yup, have been watching on flixzone} for years myself :)

[@therantcorner3182]

You should do The Glass Prison from Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence.

[@aeinarrkrigsson]

Fuck that, the hole Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence

[@sarandeula6194]

The best Dream Theater cover band on youtube ever....Love from Nepal!

[@Nevermorian]

Is it just me, or does the tune have a certain symphony X vibe with that guys voice?Kudos, amazing work!

[@feoxcore]

Son espectaculares ... Suena más potente incluso que los mismísimos dream theater, excelente cover. Saludos !

[@yalinho1]

John myung on keyboard???

[@patricklaertebarbosa1029]

kkkkk

[@jessegann7879]

That was soo funny, I forgot to laugh

[@karlsteel3631]

I guess that makes this nightmare cinema

[@hereticsic4]

Racist much?? Lol...

[@iamdono]

I have never seen a cover with this level of perfection.. salute!

[@chessfiend100]

How on Earth can anybody have disliked this?! Absolutely incredible cover guys! Especially learning by ear so accurately and quickly!

[@cyr4x]

Kneel before Talent

[@Boonejamin]

Would it be too much to ask for The Count of Tuscany?

[@patdonovan8368]

The drummer is fire 🔥 he doesn’t miss anything & crazy smooth. Very Portnoy like.😎👍

[@metalmanmatte5024]

That solo.... 10/10! Amazing cover!

[@junnydpetra]

o vocal ficou mais empolgante que o original! haha, parabens man, matou a pau, alias, toda a banda matou a pau!!

[@TheGeryal]

Are the guitar player and the bass player brothers or sth? they look very similar

[@ThiagoCamposOfficial]

We're brothers!

[@TheGeryal]

ThiagoCamposOfficial Oh and it was in the intro lol

[@jamesreedy8793]

Agus Gonzalez HAHAHAHAHA +ThiagosCamposOfficial

[@adakhochalai]

i thought both were same but before shaving bass shaved and played guitar lol

[@RSW033]

Paulinho - making playing hyper complicated drum parts easy like it's a piece of cake

[@zachcalder3143]

The singing is so close to the actual song! very impressive! great job with music too!

[@magnus0re]

Very nice cover. I think your singer sings more in pitch than the DT singer.(which is good) Now I'm going to "bash" your mix, you don't have to read, and please, take it with a pinch of salt. I will try to point out elements of the production that I think could be done better, the goal is a constructive criticism. I liked the cover! So here comes the critique on the mix: Guitars: Double tracking sounds a little bit muddy at some points in the song, less than optimal interplay with the bass guitar+kick, especially on the staccatos and palm mutings. Vocals: (you've heard this before) The vocalist could be more in front in some parts of the song, others he's just right, you use volume automation, yes?. Keyboard: Way too much in the background, I can barely hear it in parts, and some other parts It is just perfect. Where you can hear it properly, it is perfect. Drums: the drums all occupy the precious center channel, when (in my book) only the snare and kick should be allowed in. By having the cymbals so centered you phase out some of them if they are stereo mic'ed. also the drums sound much more unnatural when they are so focused in the center, I'm used to listening to the ride, hihat and toms spread more out across the stereo field, this centering gives the impression of a 96k mp3 file. But still, there is some stereo spread there. I can hear it. But his main rides/crashes are too centered for my tastes. Bass: Could use more compression, Varying bass levels competes too much with the kick drum, it also does not seem to have its own space in the mix, it jumps out at me from time to time. Also for fun, try paralleling it with extremely band limited distortion (see Ola Englunds bass recording tutorial) OK. hope I'm not too strict on you here. My intention is to give constructive feedback. This has been a very critical review of your mix, telling you what I hear, and If you read it all, thank you for taking the time to read it.. Good work.

[@ThiagoCamposOfficial]

All great mixing tips my friend! Thx. At the time I thought the same of a few of those aspects you pointed out (shortly after the release). Today, they are even more evident to me. :) Back then we were hurrying these out just to be cool and make them fast! haha so yeah, having to do most of the work myself, it was taxing (and fun) on me. I remember this video specifically, my ears were so tired, from all the recording and mixing (we were doing Bad Salad EP at the time, and slipped this drum recording in at the end of a session), I just could not differentiate anything anymore (and underestimated the importance of this phenomenon on my judgement), and this mix suffered, consequently. We wanted to release it in like 5 days, and I was laboring on the mix, extending that deadline, and everyone waiting on me. :D Oh well, it was worth the challenge. Take it for what it is. Did you hear the other videos? I wonder what you'd think about each of them, cuz all were kinda "put'em out fast" challenges (not as intense as on this one), but I thought some of those mixes sounded pretty decent (I think Metropolis Part 1 and On The Backs of Angels had some cool well balanced ones). Anyway, let me know your thoughts if you ever check them out! Also did a live one of "MUSE cover" my band did a few weeks ago, which I posted on my channel. Cheers.

[@SamuraiFingers]

Might be a mix issue, but the vocals sound weak compared to the rest of the mix. Could just be a tone/delivery issue on his end though too...I will be the first to admit I LOVE Labrie's tone, and honestly this dude, just doesn't cut the mustard. Although he IS a very good singer.

[@VinnyG_Music]

It might be your speakers or something. The vocals sound really powerful on mine.

[@SamuraiFingers]

nah, I've tried in 3 different sets of headphones, computer speakers, and flat response monitors...all are the same.

[@VinnyG_Music]

interesting... don't what's wrong. It sounds pretty powerful through my spakers

[@nikumeru]

Listening through my monitors in my studio, the voice could use a boost (2db maybe) to cut through the mix, since Denis's voice is "darker" than James's, but it's very well balanced with the instruments as it is.

[@jamesaaron788]

Sounds a little quiet to me, too.

[@azmerjemek3912]

Level of aggression is raised a few miles upwards in this version

[@konkeror9312]

bass player is on the juice for sure

[@josebaez-escudero7796]

AMAZING. This is what DT would sound like if MP was back. Way cooler than the robotic playing of Mangini. You guys are BEASTS. congrats

[@RiccardoCipolletta]

2:36 drummer is in playback!

[@RiccardoCipolletta]

Why? Maybe for "playback"? in italian it means that someone is pretending to singing or playing an instrument when in background there's another musical track. At that time, you can see that drummer doesn't hit cymbals that you can hear. Am i wrong?

[@stevetech5150]

Are you @*ucking kidding me?? Covering DT doesn't get any better than this. Way to go guys! That was absolutely amazing!!!

[@liferone]

wow! the drummer is a machine.. love this cover!

[@EetFuk8]

The drummer's tone is better than Mangini's.

[@Zsolteeu2b]

Who is the Mangini?! ;) :)

[@FayeRig]

Better than the original guys! Congrats!

get the fuck outta here

[@kobraelite]

yea your comment is seriously off-color

[@luisignaciolin711]

they re good but no better than dream God... girls

[@FayeRig]

Okay, guys - my reply goes only to those of you who deserve to get an answer and I'm talking about those who are not swearing, like swearing will give any pluses to their response. I used to be a DT fan, used to go to as many concerts of them as I could but my personal opinion is that now days the only thing they are doing is repeating themselves . Music has nothing to gain anymore from this band. We are living in a free world and that's what I believe. I respect everyone's opinion and I EXPECT from everyone else to do the same. Well for those who swear and curse in their replies I must say I find it quite amusing to see 15 and 16 years old teenagers to practise their vocab so please...be my guest hahaha!!!

[@argoperdana6823]

That keyboardist is phenomenal, especially when he did that solo keyboard part.... And also, is it only me, or that bassist really looks like John Frusciante?

[@MyRealName]

The drummer has that groove that Portnoy has and Mangini doesn't have. So awesome!

[@eliasamorim3543]

So queria saber que é o idiota que dá "não gostei"??? Ficou foda.... Como sempre!!!!

[@CarthaginianPeace]

peter baelish on the bass?

[@CristianeGril]

Josh G kkkkk Maybe!

[@ppcisthewaytobe]

I wanna see Felipe's screen all by himself. That would be awesome! Great job you guys!

[@VideoMask93]

I find Behind the Veil pretty frickin memorable, as well as Illumination Theory.

[@yogengrg7690]

No disrespect to James or his fans but this vocalist sounds better IMO.

[@sulovet]

this guy is an awesome singer, but i like james's singing for this specific song

[@ramadnazhif7301]

+Yogen Grg ANd the Drummer is better than Mike Portnoy too.

[@elmateo487]

+Ramad Nazhif WHAT?!

[@ramadnazhif7301]

[@julesrimetfx9017]

[@burakgencer65]

Absolutely amazing players.. especially drums and guitar. Waiting more from this crew.

[@kellencaldwell2998]

Really stellar job guys! The singer especially was very strong and impressive. The bass player was very entertaining.

[@VentoRdrummeR]

[@movilesunlock]

Dream Theater is the best band in the world!

[@KoTerrors]

Such a bummer ya'll don't make these anymore. Just rewatched all the SSCs, and they were so good. Cheers to whatever you all are doing now.

[@3uriah]

I'm a guitarist but I seriously love your drumming Paulinho! It's so fluid and relax, you just do it man!

[@richardhanyu5897]

I love the drummer bro 😄 what a player wow

[@dlnan0563]

[@Toquelibre]

You guys are awesome! Great job

[@BobbyHo06]

[@billelhafsaoui5788]

I love how relaxed the drummer is

[@DTkeysplayer16]

Love that run at 2:31 It's sick!

[@metfan4l]

The singer's voice reminds me of Russell Allen from Symphony X. Great stuff!

[@renatospacek6564]

Most of these guys are part of a band - Bad Salad. They make their own music, which is definitely worth listening, great band

[@DelDuio]

I'm sorry but how in the hell did that guy learn that drum pattern in less than a day?? That's absolutely stunning how good some musicians are!

[@nickrkr]

Why is this not the most subscribed band on KZbin.. what they do is Amazing

[@Grapowi]

Wow, that's one heck of a cover! Awesome job from the whole band, especially the drummer is phenomenal! Keep 'em coming!

[@rathucapricon]

Better than the original - no BS, no pretense, just talented musicians collaborating. Yes, it really does count for that much! See you at PN14!
