In 2017 I visited Steve Albini's Chicago studio, Electrical Audio, with the intention of recording drums for a few of my songs. In the process, I wanted to scrutinise every microphone in order to gain accurate insight into Steve's techniques with regards to selection, placement and processing. I also wanted to directly compare the sound of the live room to that of the dead room in Studio B. With an impressively bearded cameraman in tow, we filmed as much footage as we could and compiled this documentary of the results. A huge thank you to Kevin Clarke for holding the camera, and for putting up with me for a week. An accompanying blog post to this video can be found here: https://bit.ly/2V9Yj9t
