Reggae - A Complete & in-depth Recording Session

**Time Stamps below** Reggae is timeless. Reggae is groovy. Reggae is a truly world-beating genre….I love it…. In this film of roughly an hour in length, I record a reggae tune from scratch, all the way to final mixing. Using GarageBand for iOS, I use the drum sounds and Hammond Organ, but all guitars, bass and second keyboard (my fabulous Yamaha YC-45D, a beast of seventies’ loveliness) are recorded using the iRig Stomp pedal to input audio onto the iPad. All vocals use the internal mic. The power of an iPad. This film is in nine parts: 0:00 introduction 1:10 part 1: drums, including micro-adjustments to swing 16ths 6:32 part 2: bass 11:18 part 3: guitars (four parts – doubling bass line, two skank parts and a counter-line) 25:17 part 4: Hammond organ – bringing the rhythm all together with off-beat swing 16ths 30:21 part 5: Yamaha YC-45D – dirt! 32:20 part 6: backing vocals 39:22 part 7: percussion – claves, triangle, cabasa and guiro 49:25 part 8: lead vocals 53:18 part 9: mixing – a basic view Enjoy and Share!
