I can't believe It took me a reel to discover this guy. His songs exuberate confidence, some arrogance even, yet his musicality doesn't. He collaborates sacrificing ego that his music clearly communicates. This is absolutely beautiful.

yuge shoutout to whoever the sound guys are... all these vids sounds phenomenal.. they're in an office and it sounds better than most studio recordings i've heard

[@sethjsanchez]

can somebody actually explain how their soundengineers do it

[@edunogues23]

It almost makes no sense since the room doesnt even look acoustically treated. There must be a lot of work of postpro.

[@keefazstudio]

Bookshelves provide good sound absorption, also when music is nicely played you tend to notice defects less

[@quadrodopollock]

Not like i'm a person who understands anything of sound recording magic, but they seem to be at a kinda small place, which I'm pretty sure helps (I collected a few videos you can see the room: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGLaXpt6nq9nmq8 at the 23m30s mark kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3zdoJWKeK6Fetk at the 23m mark kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3zdoJWKeK6Fetk at the 4m45s mark Though, the last one looks VERY different and empty, terrible for audio recording)

[@sabus4312]

I'm not a sound engineer yet (learning) but pretty sure since the instruments are connected to a audio interface there isn't any white noise affecting much. i think the panning also plays a part. the drums is usually placed in the back middle of the audio, and lead guitar furthest up front, rhythm guitar right or left slightly behind middle in terms of sound direction if you get what i mean. making it have that stereo sound?. i hope what im saying makes sense cause i can't really explain without drawing the picture

[@MegaUsaname]

Cartoon Hanks he doesn’t think he’s a good singer and it’s not what he’s known for haha. Hence why he collaborates and does lots of instrumentals. Having said that, I like his voice, it’s relaxed and not attempting to be vocally impressive. He said he only sings cos the fans liked it.

[@edmcguigan3501]

Hear a lot of what I like from the UK and our own take on R&B, soul etc. His voice is a conundrum. It's almost flat but so on the money and he does something so pleasing with so little effort. That is one tight unit.

[@edmcguigan3501]

Well I have come back to listen to this about 10 times so far. I actually wonder how things would signed with a more Dynamic voice than Toms. he has a very pleasant voice but it is his guitar which really conveys emotion and I would love to hear what a more Soulful vocalist would sound like over this beautiful music.
