That's another song with Thiago Castro on the drums, from the same session I posted a few weeks ago.
Enjoy!

I'm happy to be able to mention that mixed the music for a game I called “Towers Of Thana” and it's going into Steam's Early Access next week (August 21st, 2023)
I gotta thank the team at Tryptique Audio for trusting me once again with their art.
Here is the trailer for your enjoyment.

A couple of weeks ago I got to mix this great performance of Sepultura's “Territory” from Brazilian drummer Thiago Castro.
Check it out.

The Helios 69 is one of my favorite UAD emulations (I've been using it since their “Legacy” Helios strip) and a while ago I bought Acustica Audio's take on the Helios 69, called Viridian.

Then I started using Analog Obsession's HLE-SE free take on the same EQ and a couple of days ago, Lindell Audio put out their 69 Channel Strip which I was really looking forward to trying.

The EQ curves do not match between those 4 plugins, some of them a VERY different, some of them a pretty close but I am certain you will hear the differences between them, even going through Youtube's audio compression.

Let me know your thoughts in the video comments!

This is a new mix for the official release of “Peanut Butter”

You can listen to the single on all digital platforms.

Enjoy!

And if you want to know more about the recording, I made a post about it a few months ago, just click here to read it.

Last year I had the pleasure to spend an afternoon inside a normal rehearsal room  with some extra-talented musician friends (Thiago Castro on Drums, Lucas Barnery on Guitar, and Thiago Baumgarten on Bass) and that afternoon generated two awesome tunes, this one linked below and a fully live jam, named “Peanut Butter” 
 

A couple of weeks ago we spent a Sunday recording instrumentals of 7 tunes for  Brazilian Garage Rock band “Canto Torto”.

A few days ago I did a quick comparison between some of my favorite API 2500 emulations available today (I totally forgot to add the Lindell version).

Take a listen and let me know your thoughts in the video comments section on YouTube.

Enjoy,

I totally forgot to mention that Luc St-Pierre's soundtrack for Ubisoft's For Honor, is out now. The album is called “Lost Horizons” mixed by yours truly and mastered by Richard Addison once again.

Enjoy

A few months ago I went to a rehearsal room with three long-time friends and amazing musicians from Salvador, Bahia - Brazil.
They jammed for a few hours and two songs came out of that jam. This is one of those songs.
The setup was pretty simple:
Universal Audio Apollo x8p and another silver face Apollo.
All tracks were recorded through API Legacy strips and Studer A800 tape, all committed to the recording.
No samples were used.
The guitar was recorded direct via a Kemper and the bass was also recorded direct, no amps in the room.
Enjoy,

Hi there,

This was supposed to be part of a mix contest that I did not have the time to submit to (nor do I believe in mix contests), so I just mixed it for fun, so I don't have anything to do with the recordings (they do sound great though)

I'm using mostly native Universal Audio plugins (just a couple of DSP-based ones), no samples, all from the multi-tracks (actually, the kick is from an Alesis D4) 

Enjoy

Welcome to 2023,
The first release of the year comes out as a single of an EP I had the pleasure to play drums for, and engineer the recordings for the rest of the instrumentals during the pandemic.
Tracks were mixed and mastered using UA's LUNA.
Drums were tracked in a low-ceiling basement using a UA Apollo x8p with 8 channels of API Legacy strips via UNISON. Tracks were EQ'd and compressed "to tape".
- RE20 on the kick
- i5 on the snare
- 421 for toms and floor toms
- Ribbons for overheads
Guitars were recorded through an amp and DI, the same for the bass tracks with the added Darkglass B7K (main bass tone) track. 
I hope you enjoy it!

Earlier this year I had the immense task of editing and mixing the voice-over recordings for WB Games Montreal's "Gotham Knights".

The recordings have been previously processed by someone else but the team was not satisfied with the results and asked me to try another take with those files (over 80 THOUSAND lines of dialog).

After some back-and-forth collaboration with the audio team, we got to a place we were all happy with the quality and I started speeding up the process which took a couple of months of work to finish.

I feel honored to have been trusted with such an important part of the project and I can't wait to hear it in the game (whenever I have time to play it)

Cheers

To change the mood a little bit, here is some Jazz for you all.

Brazilian guitar player Marcelo Jesuino releases his first album named "De Outro Modo".

This project was mixed and mastered a while ago in 2021 but was released a few months ago.

Enjoy

This one was released a few months ago (June 4th, 2022) but somehow I totally forgot to post it here.

Enjoy,
 

It's been a while since my last post but that doesn't mean things were slow, it's exactly the opposite.

Here is the first single "Fuck The Police" from Brazilian hardcore band "All Systems Fall"

Enjoy,

This is part of a weekend at a beach house, tracking drums and having some fun.

This is a project that we started planning before the whole virus situation and that we only were able to finish now in 2022.
Drums were tracked by Matt Nozetz at Avbury Studios, bass tracked by Corrina Fisches herself, I tracked the guitars at home using amp sims and the vocals were tracked by Jérémy Tremblay.
Mixing and mastering were done using Universal Audio's LUNA.
Enjoy
 

A few months ago L.A. based Brazilian multi-instrumentist Fabio Rocha asked me to do the mastering of his album "Naif".
Although it was great to have him reaching out to me for this task, the album needed a few extra tweaks on the mix before I could do the masters.
Once I got the mix sessions, I did my best to finish it up while keeping the vibe of the project intact and ready to be heard by the rest of the world :)
Enjoy

I had the pleasure to mix and master 4 songs for Brazilian guitar player Diego Pires's first solo EP.
The album was recorded mostly at his home studio and has no "mic'd" instruments.
Guitars went through either a Neural DSP Quad Cortex or Mercuriall's "AmpBox Reaxis, drums were programmed and are a blend of several different libraries and the bass was also recorded through a Quad Cortex.
Enjoy it!
