60s Motown Drops的特点是循环和打击,灵感来自于传奇的Motown Records声音,由Timmy Rickard设计、表演和制作。这张专辑的灵感来自于1960年代底特律时代的摩城唱片,当时 “Funk Brothers “是这个先锋声音和风格背后的主要音乐家。
这张专辑受到了The Four Tops、The Temptations、Marvin Gaye和Gladys Knight And The Pips等艺术家的影响。Motown Drops深入研究了这个受人尊敬的唱片公司的目录,不仅包括Funk Brothers的标志性旋律,还包括各种不太为人所知的曲目,使这个版本既丰富又经典。
重现60年代的摩城音乐几乎是不可能的。每个时段的套件都不一样,但Timmy研究了这种声音,我们认为我们已经创造了这种声音的一个伟大代表。在伦敦Livingston 1录音室的一个大的现场房间里进行录音,房间里的麦克风就像房间里有一个完整的Motown乐队一样–铜管乐器、人声麦克风、对讲机麦克风,然后在套装上有两个麦克风–一个踢脚,一个套装麦克风,放在低音鼓的上方,在架子鼓之间,在骑马的下方。将这些话筒混合到60年代的套装中,就可以创造出摩城的声音了。对于购买多音轨的客户,你将拥有来自房间里每个话筒的音频,这样你就可以完全按照你的要求来混合声音。
我们使用了Timmy的1960年代路德维希俱乐部的套装,包括一个20英寸×14英寸的踢鼓、一个12英寸×8英寸的架子鼓和一个14英寸的地板鼓。使用了四个小鼓–两个路德维希先锋小鼓,一个路德维希好莱坞小鼓和一个Slingerland Shelbyville小鼓。我们使用了两只镲片,一只Zildjian Trans Stamp和一只Zildjian Constantinople Hammered镲片(这两只镲片都是作为滑音和撞音使用的)以及一些Zildjian vintage hi-hats。在整个曲目中,有手鼓、拍子和康加鼓。所有的鼓都使用了Remo Ambassador鼓头。
话筒方面,我们使用了Neumann Valve U47和67,Coles ribbon话筒,Sony C38b和AKG Valve C28。使用的话筒前级是UA2-610,Telefunken V76s和Neve 1073。所有的话筒都是在没有EQ或压缩的情况下录制的,除了头顶的话筒使用了EAR阀门EQ和压缩器。所有的音轨都录制在16轨的Studer A80 2英寸磁带机上,然后转到Pro Tools进行混音和编辑。鼓的音轨是在Livingston 2中,由Neve提供的Custom Series CS75调音台上混合的,这是一个基于Neve老式技术的现代调音台。录音带中包括一个EMT板式混响干,用于一些鼓轨。
60s Motown Drops features loops and hits inspired by the legendary Motown Records sound, engineered, performed and produced by Timmy Rickard. This album takes its inspiration from the sound of the 1960’s Detroit era of Motown Records, when the ‘Funk Brothers’ were the main musicians behind this pioneering sound and style.
This release is influenced by artists such as The Four Tops, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye and Gladys Knight And The Pips. Motown Drops delves deep into the catalogue of this revered record label, and includes not only the Funk Brothers signature grooves, but also a wide variety of lesser known tracks, making this release as varied as it is classic.
To recreate the 60s Motown Sound is almost impossible. Kits varied from session to session but Timmy studied the sound and we think we have created a great representation of the sound. Recorded in a large live room at Livingston 1 studio in London, the room was mic’d up as if there was a full Motown band in the room – brass section, vocal mic, talkback mic and then two mics on the kit – a kick, and a kit mic placed above the bass drum, between the rack toms and below the ride. Mix these mics into a 60s kit and voila the Motown sound is created. For customers that purchase the multi-tracks you will have the audio from each microphone in the room so you can mix the sound exactly as you want it.
For the kit we used Timmy’s 1960s Ludwig club date kit with a 20” x 14” kick drum one 12” x 8” rack tom and a 14” floor tom. Four snares were used – two Ludwig Pioneer Snares, a Ludwig Hollywood Snare and a Slingerland Shelbyville Snare. We used two cymbals a Zildjian Trans Stamp and a Zildjian Constantinople Hammered cymbal (both doubled up as rides and crashes) and some Zildjian vintage hi-hats. Across the tracks there is tambourine, claps and congas. All the drums used Remo Ambassador heads.
Mic wise we used Neumann Valve U47’s & 67s, Coles ribbon mics, a Sony C38b and an AKG Valve C28. Mic pre’s used were UA2-610’s, Telefunken V76s and a Neve 1073. All of the mics were recorded without EQ or compression except the overhead microphone which used an EAR valve EQ and compressor. All of the tracks were recorded on to a 16 track Studer A80 2” tape machine and then transferred to Pro Tools for mixing and editing. The drum tracks were mixed in Livingston 2 on a Custom Series CS75 console powered by Neve which is a modern desk based on vintage Neve technology. Included in the stems is an EMT plate reverb stem used on some of the drum tracks.
