Jonathan Rado Dissects Foxygen's "Follow the Leader" Recording | Reverb Behind the Mix

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

Rado does have a good knowledge in recording and producing which is probably even more important than his involvement in Foxygen, he really gives them the "sound". He has a great musical imagination

[@Kingofsweaters]

This guy is such a fuckin genius. The amount of great records he’s produced in such a short time is insane

[@willasbury]

These guys plus the Lemon Twigs guys must just be a disgusting level of creativity in one room

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

proud of them for discovering Brian and Michael, they are very talented

[@limpimp9686]

He reminds me of Bob Dylan sometimes. Especially his hair and hands

[@DominicMartinez96]

[@KountryCuz1]

lot of work in that Recording Nice !!!!!!!!!!

[@zaviae]

anyone know what that little mixer is ?

[@nitedreamer23]

"We used Hal Blaine's drum kit. Yeah, no big deal." Ha ha

[@limpimp9686]

Don’t think it was his just the same kit

[@jtaracely]

hot rado

[@bboymac84]

ha! i use hal blanes drums too!

[@Achase4u]

What type of bass is that 4:56 during the cleaner part? A jazz with both pickups on? That is such a great tone.

[@coliepolie123]

It sounds hollow body to me like maybe a Hofner.

[@dancingcheeseproductions4127]

It's probably the same bass they use live, Rado let the Lemon Twigs use it for their debut album

[@GoatDust]

I know they used to use a Klira Twen Star bass. It’s a Hofner copy from the same era and I believe it was manufactured in the same town the old Hofners were. The other bass they’d use was an old Silvertone 1443. Could also just be a rick, it’s hard to tell.

[@thecandyman9308]

the "tight bottom" of The Lemon Twigs brought me here

[@19chicago95]

What is that device he uses to mix?

[@Reverb]

That's a handy little Korg Nano Kontrol 2. bit.ly/2oDwm7U

[@robveloz3579]

Steely?

[@cameronmurphy5850]

Anyone know any details on how one goes about trigger from the linndrum? Is it done by midi or can the linndrum be triggered with audio? or did they use software like trigger?

[@Hashdollars]

cameron murphy he says he triggers the linndrum with the snare, that means he has a drum trigger set above the snare and when you hit the snare the sound triggers whatever sound he selects from the linndrum

[@Zorp_Anderson]

what program is he using?

[@zaviae]

Logic Pro

[@anthonyb8622]

I would love to hear the mix of this song without the orchestral arrangement - bring out all that Rhodes/Wurli action

[@GoatDust]

Anthony I have the demo of it on flex disk. I can post it if you’d like.

[@JuanRamirez-bx2jz]

A D do it, please

[@Velveteenvision]

What does Sam play? I have heard him say he plays music in several videos, but what?? I'm so confused.

[@dancingcheeseproductions4127]

He doesn't play anything on this particular album. When he does play an instrument, which he has done on every other album, he usually plays drums, piano, horns, or rhythm guitar.

[@lifeonastring]

Mick Jagger

[@bradmodd7856]

Something wrong about doing the 70s in the 10s.....but so necessary too

[@choripepas]

The demos are way better
