Moses Schneider: Drums With Character

[@Mickeysternum245]

"You get some control but you lose some music" is an incredible statement, what a legend

[@soulguitar77]

What a cool guy, no diva behaviour, just true love for music, refreshing !!

[@Notthisbs]

Never seen an audio professional laugh so often and have so much fun. Moses teach me audio!!!

[@AvivC1]

"maybe you took the wrong drugs, i dont know!" what a funny character, i like his philosophy on recording/mixing as well!

[@sirpejot]

Ein musikalisches Genie mit einem so großartigen Charakter. So was gibt's (leider) viel zu selten auf diesem Planeten.

[@ivayloandonov4177]

Today I spent a few hours with Moses at his studio and man,this guy is such a pure soul.Extremely competent yet humble,I would love to work with him again

[@tracktourmusiclibrary]

He has published an e-book called The Alternative Workbook - Or How To Pimp Your Practice Room, where he gives practical tips on how to make professional recordings in the rehearsal room.

[@Ramshackled17]

Tracktour Music Library thanks!!

[@RoyChartier]

This man is incredible...what passion for his art...using simple techniques to create magic.

[@kommunismusarbeiterjonny]

Damn that drum beat got me pumping with the Wurst mic

[@AlexBallMusic]

What an enthusiastic and talented guy!

[@raytheonorion]

This was really great to listen to and watch. The gent really loves his life and his work. It has kept him young it seems. The part about recording "CREATOR" and that them being a 25 year old band who are fun to work with for when you record an old band like that who have been with each other since their teens meant that you can really hear "friendship"... dyamn that was deep.

[@RocknJazzer]

it's "Kreator" btw

[@deanrichards6334]

I love this guy! Can you imagine how much fun it would be to be his assistant! Hearing him say 'I love it' everyday ha!

[@paulbadoo9326]

Super-inspiring this video, because I guess everybody is fighting to record drums at home in a small room. I actually prefer this sound to 80s-90s big room, bombastic, roomy drums. This is how rock drums ought to sound like.

[@ArturTadevosyan]

Everybody needs more Wurst in there music Moses! Great video and such a great guy!!!

[@luismaza5640]

I've been watching amazing recording engineers and producers on youtube and all of them are amazing but this guy is the only one I would really really want to meet and get a beer while talking about music!!!!!!!

[@klick2destruct]

I recorded my band this summer. We played the music live, a second guitar and vocals overdub. I, as the drummer, was the only one that had a click playing in my headphones. It helped soooo much in the editing phase because I could align the individual takes of one song and comp every mistake out. The feeling is still there and it was fairly easy to work with.

[@MMAArborist]

+klick2destruct Yea i don't think this guy is a musician all the best bands recorded final takes to sequencer tracks or some kind of metronome

[@raytheonorion]

+ConcreteKOS He is definitely a music lover though. That might mean more. Musicians are sometimes blind [or in this case, deaf] to certain "inconsistencies".

[@klick2destruct]

well, many musicians don't really know what they are doing. for me as a drummer it was kind of a natural step to start recording myself. recording and producing sound is a difficult and very broad topic that involves as much physics as creative freedom. IMO a clicktrack doesn't really make or break a record. it just makes it easier to work with and many people (including myself) are used to a steady groove.

[@raytheonorion]

klick2destruct Yea I think that not needing a click is probably reserved for super tight bands that have been together for years and know each other really well. The dynamic gives the sound something that you can't get with click. However this doesn't mean that not using click will give you this level of synergy. Again he said "you can really hear friendship" when advocating for no click. You know for that "live sound".

[@bigbaldguy]

Hell yes! A KREATOR shot out. This is the best interview/insight from producer/engineer ever. So glad I stumbled across this.

[@Hereismatt]

This guy is absolutely brilliant! Real wisdom in the digital age about getting character out of recordings

[@norepetitivebeats]

Seems like a really genuine guy. This is what we all should aim for IMO.

[@stantaylor2752]

He really wraps it up at about 28 minutes onward. Police, AC/DC, "You can listen to the friendship!" 1st chorus/2nd chorus. What a great perspective.

[@magicRayquaza]

I love just how happy and smiley he is talking about music

[@THEinSEnDeaieri]

I really enjoy Moses' attitude; A refreshing take on recording.

[@wolfmannoon]

One word for Moses Schneider. Awesome!!!!! 👍😎

[@IrosRodriguez]

How incredible is to see him enjoy what he do so much, so much PASSION in what he is doing, is pretty remarkable yet inspiring at the same time!

[@roderickaugust]

One of the real ones. God bless you Moses!

[@tyronrossouw44]

His passion for music is infectious :)

[@glade_maker]

Very cool! I love the rant against tracking separately and using a click track, so right!

[@HolySmokeOfficial]

"Whatever it is... Wow! Let's distort it!" Love this guy!! 👍🏼

[@PeteWojMusic]

Moses is a legend. Epic dude! Love this vid. Love his stoke for music.

[@msquicc]

I love this guy, and his take on quantizing, click tracks, and live recording bands!

[@georgeparnell6026]

That gated 'wurst' mic is so good. Cool video

[@neurobits]

Nice to meet Moses. This open minds are so enjoyable.

[@soulagent79]

His recordings are simply amazing, He is like a modern day Phil Spector.

[@ozorg]

"wurst mic" - love it ;)

[@mastertapesband2767]

pure art...pure artist....blessed

[@jesusflores2121]

Crazy interesting technique with the 2 knee mic's and the over head sweep.

[@ЮрийМаштаков-й6й]

Thank you Moses and SOS!!

[@skyreadersociety6183]

holy shit - those distorted tracks - in a way liberating how unconventional approaches & thinking out of the box will lead to interesting stuff.

[@StevieInsane]

such a bright guy!

[@sebastiandior1315]

Just saw this for the first time, this guy is totally cool.

[@alasdairmacdonald23]

"wurst" Wish i thought of that one. Moses comment/s on- Stimulate the recording artists, in headphone mix.. Absolutely!!. going to try the Wurst mic technique on my drums tomorrow, i have done similar but not such a close sound....cant wait!! i love using gates and compression.. is the way i like it..

[@FlyingFooBalls]

I will never stop watching this video.

[@teamsleepnine]

he seems honest!!

[@bob4analog]

8:38 this is the 'crotch mic' set up. Love it! I use this method on my recordings lots of times. It just works!

[@joelpizarro1384]

im 100% with the click theory. I've experienced that already .

This cat is one jovial Deutcher! Great stuff, thanks!

[@GoLDnTRiXX]

Ich finde das voll genial wie er einfach irgendwelche "schnapsideen" einfach umsetzt und es klingt so geil. Alleine schon wie er die Effekte einsetzt. Entscheidend ist das Endergebnis, wie man da hin kommt is dich völlig WURST

[@ЮрийМаштаков-й6й]

Wow!! It’s just awesome!! So much ways to make music!!

What a lovely chap - really infectiously enthusiastic.

[@TheRealHucasys]

Perfect imperfection.

[@ReformedWhiteKnight]

Working with my first band called 'Gentle View' at Ulli Weigel's Sinus Tonstudio back in the day surely must have been one of his very first productions, maybe the first one? ;-)

[@dannon2010]

Great Mighty Boosh episode! Thanks.

[@hjalmarlindstrom977]

What a wonderful dude

[@AlexDalliance]

Fantastic video.

[@autodidacticprofessor869]

This seriously kicks ass.

[@echology]

Can we have a list of songs used in this video? They're all so killer! Are these all Moses work?

[@jesusflores2121]

I had the same feeling as him regarding quantization. I mean, especially a live band. You want them to create the energy. Let them dictate their own tempo and feel. If it's a bad take, then it's a bad take. Maybe they need to practice more, or get the arrangement down better.

[@davidnygren644]

Awesome lad!

[@jackoo666]

had never heard of this guy...first impression "who did he produce for? I bet he worked with the pixies" I always loved there drum sound. somehow I was right.

[@sjcongo]

This guy really knows some music ☺️

[@gernotfrohlich6978]

if u have a vision - u have to make decisions PRE tape ;) - i luv ur type of mixing and recording ;)
