Thanks so much for doing these every week. Skinny Puppy, FLA, these are the bands that inspired me to pick up a keyboard and sequencer and start making music almost 30 years ago, and they are still putting out great, fresh music. Seeing how it was done, is really cool, and I have learned so much from these short videos.
Justin Forbes thank you my friend, you just put a HUGE smile on my face!!! I appreciate you sharing here, and particularly that you’ve been able to apply some ideas to your own work, that just makes it even more fun when I plan my next session Justin! I hope you have an awesome weekend, stay safe! -hw
Yo, Hiwatt! 2 years later, here I find myself. OhGr is timeless, and still an inspiration. That being said, I am a hobbyist musician, if you can call your lifelong passion a hobby. That brings me to my question. You have been very successful at making a living from your passion. I have (yet) to achieve that - frankly I don't care if I make money from it, because I do it for myself. I'm sure I am in the majority, as far as that goes. I wonder if you would give some pointers about how to gracefully share music with others. Perhaps you can also touch on how to balance a hobby that is so time-intensive, especially when (if you're like me) dreams of being a professional musician died with my teenage years. With the technology becoming so accessible, and the questionable influence of social media, how can we as creators collaborate in healthy ways without shoving our work down someone's throat? Sorry for the long post, I figured you're always looking for new topics. Thanks as always for your brilliant content and unshakable passion and joy for our labor of love. Mase
Let me add another note - the opposite is also true: I would love to give feedback and enjoy the fruits of my brothers and sisters labor. How have you found like-minded individuals to work with outside of a professional relationship? You're the man, hearing your optimistic approach is what inspired me to go back for the audio engineering degree. You've changed my life.
As an old audio engineer rarely having time to focus on my own compositions (family-man etc) your channel and your work is some of the most important and inspiring content I’ve come across. Your channel has become seriously important to me to keep in touch with the neglected composer/mixer part of my soul. Thank you Hiwatt. I love you.
Was looking for insight into ohGr's production, particularly the vocal processing, after listening to this song and then found this video on the exact track I was interested in! The vocal harmony on this song is just fucking amazing. Also, love the change you made to that ending build-up - a definitive improvement over the original.
I can't thank you enough for this channel Ken, you have given me so many amazing production technique ideas over the past year that i never would have though of in a million years. Keep up the awesome work!!!!
WORSAW666 your sharing here absolutely makes my Friday, thank you for that!!! You just put a huge smile on my face cause this is what it’s all about, sharing ideas that I hope other colleagues can benefit from 😊💥 Just about everything I’ve learned has come from others willing to share along the way. I’ve been privileged to be assistant engineer to some of the greatest in the business, and it has always blow me away at how willing so many of them are to share ideas...very inspiring!!!

Please keep doing these vids! So awesome to see track breakdowns like these (and for less explored genres), helps all of us to appreciate the work that went into these songs!
Thanks so much for sharing this and all the information about mixing this track. What you have been doing in your channel is so powerfully eductational it's blowing my mind. I use this channel as a reference library for mixing and production. It's awesome, cheers!

This is my favorite ohGr song; somehow I knew it was going to be the one you featured in this video before I clicked! And I LOVE what you did for the chorus. That a cappella part grabbed me the first time I heard it and has never let go.
Thank you for this Ken. I've been a fan of ohGr since Welt and it's crazy that Undeveloped came out 11 years ago! Love this track and love your vids dude! Excellent techniques, insights, and positive energy!
I've listened to UnDeveloped over and over again ever since I bought the CD when it came out and I got to say that hearing this breakdown of a track that I'm deeply familiar with is truly inspiring. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us!

Wow! That was really inspiring to hear how you mixed that track. Great work ! Man if I could ever have the opportunity to choose someone to mix my record you would be first choice! First time finding this channel and subscribing.
These videos are absolute gold. Thank you Ken for your work and willingness to share all this with us. Mark Walk and Ohgr are indeed a force to be reckoned with. Geniuses. That aside, I’ve probably yelled out “now pushing through the voodoo fringe” more times in traffic than I could count...
Distorto Manipulo I love it, ohGr / Ogre lyrics are some of my favourite...he has a unique way of delivering and manipulating his own voice into some of the coolest melodies ;-) Cheers to you my friend, and I hope you have an awesome weekend! -hw
Awesome video, Ken! I'd really love it if sometime down the line you could do a video talking about the album you did with Cevin Key called "The Dragon Experience". The sound design and production on that album are truly on another level. Easily one of my favorite albums of all time!
Hi Ken. I listened to this album multiple times back some time. Great work from all of you guys. The new ending for me makes me think it would and should have been like that from the start. Very interesting to watch your thought process here. Thank you. Stay safe and sound.
Love seeing this, this whole album is great front to back. I'm not sure if it's even possible, but I would love to get these multitracks and other ohgr ones as well someday! Would be really cool for remixes and such.

On one perfect Friday, maybe Dave would join us to chat about that mix! I was Rave’s assistant engineer on The Process, and we mixed it in a beautiful studio in Brian Adam’s basement haha!!! Large frame SSL...amazing consoles, and certainly a contributing factor to the Process’s sound. That said, RAVE is the reason the Process, and so many earlier albums sounded so good!!! Rave is still the master ;-) Super awesome suggestion, I’m making notes in my hiwattSOUNDbites book right now! Thanks again Tactical, I hope you have an awesome Friday! -hw
Ken Marshall “Summer of 69” that Brian Adams? If so, WOW never would have imagined The Process recorded same place as the 1990s Robin Hood soundtrack. Haha now I want a “The Process / I do it for you” mash up
Thank you for doing these breakdowns of my favorite artists! ohGr's voice is amazing here. I noticed that you worked with Tear Garden on Last Man to Fly. I would love to hear about the making of that album!
Is it just me, or, if it's right saying that the beat to Tragek sounds like Smothered Hope by Skinny Puppy, then does Breathe by The Prodigy sound like Smothered Hope? Every once in a while, when I go on a music obsession session, I am reminded again of the un-unhearable closeness of Tragek and Smothered Hope. And, how Paparazzi by Lady Gaga also, in my mind, smoothly overlays Tragek.
Tragek had a wicked heavy ending part in a 'demo' version I downloaded years ago... I always wished that heaviness stayed in the track for the album. Still a great track though!
Aecio de Souza thank you my friend, I appreciate you sharing VERY much ;-) I wasn’t assisting the guys with those ohGr albums, I bet Mark Walk would join me on a session to chat about them...that is, if I can find Mark...have you seen him?!? Haha, I hope you’re having an awesome Friday Aecio de Souza!!! -hw
I like these Episodes where you go back to old material that you worked on. I would very much love to see you do a video on your work with cEvin Key on "the dragon experience" in particular how "shortwave connector" Came about? Perhaps what the original Demos that cEvin made sounded like, and comparing it to what you added to it?🙏✌

Psquare that’s an anti-static strap I wear whenever I’m using my touch-sensitive controllers! I live in a very dry climate during summer months, and during winter the furnace draws humidity, so my controllers work approximately 1000 times better when I’m ‘attached’ via a simple ground strap. Highly recommended when touch controls are not making that connection, and I believe my gear loves me for not constantly discharging on it lmao! I so appreciate you sharing and engaging here Psquare, it makes sharing approximately 1000 times more fun ;-)) Have a great weekend and stay safe! -hw

This album is so dope!!! My fave track.
Finally someone who's showing some production stuff about industrial music
Very, very cool of you for sharing this! One of my favorite ohGr tracks!
Might be my fav lesson so far. Nivek Ogre is amazing.
Holy shit - I'd totally forgotten about this track. It's so good!
