The Drums of "Lust For Life" by Iggy Pop | What's That Sound? EP 16

แชร์
ฝัง
  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 พ.ย. 2022
  • The drum beat for Iggy Pop's classic was inspired by Motown, but recorded in a way that makes it sound more aggressive than most records of its time, with big, lively, bombastic energy. How'd they get it?

    That song has always been a favorite of mine. I used to play in a band from D.C. named Black Market Baby, and our drummer ,Tommy Carr, always used the Ludwig Acrylite snare no matter what drum set he was using. Afterwhile I said to him," You've got a very good ear for drum sounds, that Ludwig snare kills them all." The demo you guys just did proves that once again. Thank you so much KC

    My very first snare when I was 10 in school band was a Ludwig Acrylite! I’m now 54 and it’s still my favorite sounding snare of all time regardless of what brand of kit I mix it in with.
    No other snare has such a classic tight traditional crack with no cheap 90’s sounding ring to it like this model.

      They are also built like tanks! I (shamefully) backed over mine with my car rushing to a gig one time. It somehow made it through the show. I later had to get out a hammer in the garage to make everything nice and circular again, and now you couldn't tell even anything happened to it. I adore the thing and I'll never give it up, especially since I have some fun history with it!

    The rhythm to 'Lust for Life' bears a striking similarity to the 1966 single 'You Can't Hurry Love' by The Supremes and is probably where the drummer Hunt Sales got the beat from - he almost certainly didn't use a 20" kick but a shallow depth 24" or even a 26" without any muffling to get that wide-open sound

    • @griiseknoen
      @griiseknoen ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That "mid 60s Motown" influence made it completely original in 1977. The song sounds both older and newer than the year it was made, but NOTHING like _anybody else_ in 77. Love it.

    His sound is an excellent example of what you can achieve when you know how to TUNE YOUR DRUMS!!!! He didn't do anything extraordinary, he just knew what he needed to do to get that sound. His sound was powered up through the roof in Tin Machine. He always had a great sound and knew how to get it! Learn how to tune them boys! The only way to be versatile is to know how to tune them!

    How about the intro drums to “Strange Times” by The Black Keys? Attack & Release a transition album from their “homemade” recordings to using a studio and an outside producer. Patrick Carney may have been using a John Bonham replica kit, but he may have done the ‘70s tea towel trick for a deader sound on parts of the kit as well.
