  • Trailer – Song Gimmick
    Apr 7 2021
    Do you ever listen to a song, and there is something unique, maybe unexpected … a key change, an odd instrument, a weird chord or harmony?

    I love those moments. I often wonder, “what made them think to do that?”

    It can take a song from good to special.

    It’s a “song gimmick”

    Join me and my brothers as we geek out about different song gimmicks,

    … and

    … we are also testing out different microphones and remote recording software, so if you nerd out about that kind of stuff, check out the show notes.

    (this was recorded on an SM7, through an SE DM1, into an evo4, and mastered in Adobe Audition)
