"Masters From Their Day"
Can a classic recording be produced in just one day?? Some incredibly talented folks have already shown us: Patsy Cline, Owen Bradley, Otis Redding, Tom Dowd, Elvis Presley, Sam Phillips, The Beatles, George Martin, James Brown. A lot of timeless records were produced in a single recording session - songs that we still sing at the top of our lungs.
Masters From Their Day is an on-going series of short documentaries focusing on artists making records. Each episode chronicles the efforts of a band and a record-producer as they attempt to record a new single in one day. The viewer experiences the real-time creative contemplations that go into the records being made by today's luminaries.
In their episode of Masters From Their Day, Deerhoof collaborate with an outside producer/engineer for the first time in their extensive career...and quite the producer it is. Chris Shaw has been integral to some of the most influential records of the past few decades, including Weezer's 'Blue Album', Public Enemy's 'It Takes a Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back' and 'Fear of a Black Planet', Tribe Called Quest's 'Low End Theory', not to mention his work with Keith Richards (a huge influence to Deerhoof), Bob Dylan...the list goes on.
Of course, it's always a risk when a self-driven DIY band goes into a big fancy studio with a big-time producer, so we knew this could get interesting, for better or worse...
The new single, 'Sexy, but Sparkly' (out now via the for-charity 7″ series LAMC), is a pop-art kaleidoscope of colors. The song is a new direction for Deerhoof, yet a fitting addition to their lexicon. The essence of Deerhoof -- Satomi Matsuzaki's signature pure-tone minimalism, Greg Saunier's drumming dynamism, the intricate guitar parts that create a sum of raw power - are all present, but they've never sounded quite like this. Chris Shaw pushes the Deerhoof narrative into an exciting new setting that is lively-yet-composed, raw-yet-shimmering, and completely enticing.

I LOVE this version. I once listened to it on repeat for a week.
Man, what a video.
💚🐉💚
Perry is the most wonderful person.
@mastersfromtheirday are you there?
I miss these. Can y’all do another one?
Great musicians
мама щас расплачуасоь
Love it!
So good
Magnifique
Wait, why is John's electric mic'd lmao
Who knows exactly, I have a couple theories...having an extra microphone on the electric will give them an extra track to work with later, more options. It might sound good mixed in with the plugged in signal, or it might help certain guitar frequencies stand out in the whole mix. OR my other theory is that signal is for his headphone playback to hear himself. Some players like a clean playback, without any effects... certain fx can get you lost in your timing if its heavy enough. It might also be for avoiding signal delay. If his guitar sound is heavily pre-processed and introduces a bit of lag, it messes with your timing, so a clean signal will be closer to zero delay. And this way the band can hear the processed version. All speculation :p Finally, maybe they're just straight up recording their electric like an acoustic and adding effects in post, I mean, it is Deerhoof, it probably wouldn't be the weridest thing theyve done haha and would probably still sound great in that studio.
to record the picking sounds and mix with the amps signal. to give a more percussive sound to the guitar.
Which album is this song on?
Where can we buy this! I loved it! It’s awesome!!!
WOW!!!
What a beautiful song!
I'm curious to why does the singer's mic has a windscreen, is it intentional being used to attenuate some of the high frequencies?
I knew you use to produce your stuff but didn’t know it was all of it. Couldn’t relate more, when Greg acknowledge not worrying about anything else other than playing.
best
This song was amazing
Great guitar tones/sounds.
Johns my uncle, I remember going to one of his studios.
Great producer.... Sucky boring song though.
I saw you guys in Santa Cruz in 2003 and I think your guitar player at that time knew my girl friend at the time. Anyways that comment Greg, about not playing in time busted me up. Dude it is why we all loved you then, just how awkward your timing was. Not just the drums but everything. I want you to go back there. But this is a good mix, it reminds me of your 2nd album, straight forward melodies and distortion. Not your first which was, kind indescribable for me.
The guitar was fine. I'm sure yall play way better.
Great Song....but the Guitar destroyed everything :D
I absolutely love this song. The lyrics are pure poetry.
the guitarist mess it all up
Wow that guitar player was not helping this song at all... such a shame
the guitar solo was awesome.
con esto demuestra que cualquiera puede hacer " musica "
Mannnn that basss!
This guys are so amazing. they're so chill and talented. i wish i was them…..omg!!
Way to go, Elias..!
shoe pixel fuzz
Anyone know what the bass fuzz is? Sounds unreal
Deerhoof often experiments with feeding distortion pedals into other distortion pedals, probably some fuzz stuff too... Check out their rig rundown episode, they discuss how they get their unique tones.
He says exactly what it is on the new Earthquaker devices show me your junk video.
muito bom!!!
Singing with a cold, while often requires more effort and energy, also is usually easier to reach into higher registers. This is usually due to the nose being blocked so that the singer is forced into having a better connection in order to sing well. In saying that, he probably still felt like shit, so impressive none the less.
I actually like the mix on this quite a bit more than the mastered version in the official release of the song.
yea, take out the electric guitar and this would be really good. he completely killed it
The bass has a heavy fuzz distortion effect that is prominent on the new album.
It's a Shoe Pixel Fix
I meant I WANTED TO REMEMBER YOU
Lyrics? How about WHO SAID (repeated) I WANT TO REMEMBER YOU NOW I"M GONNA DO A THING TO YOU
Gorgeous.
Is it just me or the bass sounds very diffferent from other 5 episodes? (my system is bass happy)
wonderful!
Library on Fire is simply amazing. Yet from the "EQ" and "Raindrop", it really shows how drastically a good crew can transform a music
recording with a cold and still have that voice, amazing processing
Sounds great, Joe! Keep it going!
hey, you hav´nt quit with this, great! good luck!
