"Masters From Their Day"
How good can a recording sound if it's produced in one day? Some incredibly talented folks have already shown us: Patsy Cline, Owen Bradley, Otis Redding, Tom Dowd, Elvis Presley, Sam Phillips, The Beatles, George Martin, Ryan Leslie. A lot of timeless records were produced in a single recording session - songs that we still sing at the top of our lungs.
'MASTERS From Their Day' is a web series and an homage to the 'masters.' Each episode of MFTD gathers a set of collaborators to attempt to reprise that classic work-flow and produce a quality track in one recording session. The video ends with the mastered track from their day.

[@EliasGwinn]

Thanks! This band definitely knows how to make one move one's back side...

[@nostodmada]

@cengeb Cengeb, you speak with passion about music. I'll bet if you put that passion into creating something beautiful instead of negatively bashing other peoples attempts at creativity, you'd be more filled with joy and fulfillment. If you think the world needs better music, make it! Good luck!

[@mobayrasta]

Such a great Idea. Please keep these Masters From Their Day coming. The more the better!!!!

[@SaginawCalinda]

Oh - this makes me want to get right out of my chair and shake it! Heard it on the radio going into work the other day - I was all over the road! Kind of remind me of Architecture in Helsinki.

[@JLlolfun]

[@EliasGwinn]

@lugerweb you can get it on the main page for this project (ps. look in the video description for this video for the link)

[@gzagsjm25]

@cengeb Look, I don't want to argue. You've commented on this video 4 or 5 times now, if you dislike Rubblebucket, why do you keep watching this? Your opinion is that you think their music is bad, gotcha. I think it's great. No problems.

[@earthalien77]

Like it alot! The vocals are awesome! Who is the singer?

[@gzagsjm25]

Well, now that we all know how cengeb feels, I'd like to put fourth my comment. They sound sweet. They're unreal live, too.

[@unoclay]

Yo that was f*ckin sweet Eli.

[@arturomartinez3705]

con esto demuestra que cualquiera puede hacer " musica "

[@EliasGwinn]

@awssk8er207 : you couldn't get the AIFF download to work? Did you download the CD-Quality version? What media player do you use?

[@mrfish4lyfe]

@cengeb they know what they are doing

[@lugerweb]

where can I pick up this mp3? this song is stuck in my head..

[@benirall1246]

best

[@mvinge]

fucking love it

[@dreamingWisdom]

2:53 sounds like the guy's rapping >:j

[@cengeb]

@gzagsjm25 I prefer REAL music, un real is exactly what this is you are correct. But REAL is always better. I don't know what I am doing, and I know I could put together something better than this horrendous stuff. Who listens to this crap anyway, just another reason the music industry has collapsed, where is TALENT?

[@cengeb]

It's like they don't have a clue! What a waste of equipment!

[@cengeb]

Horrible, these guys appear clueless.

[@cengeb]

All this manacinations, effort and talk, and pondering, the final result is a joke, horrible crap. Why are they bothering, baaaaaaad, maybe they are all deaf, and luckily can't hear this crap. Horns sound like a bad circus is coming to town.
