Hey Guys,
I'm super into the Miles Davis "Bitches Brew" era music as well as the Herbie Hancock Mwandishi period. Musically and sonically things were going into very uncharted territory and it is simply out of this world. I create my own music and in no ways want to "copy" there sound. The thing i love about those recordings is they all have a vibe (combination of musically and sonically) - Herbie Hancock "Sextant" is super dry by very mellow and warm sounding. I almost feel like I'm melting when I listen to it, "Bitches Brew" is very live and room mic sounding and dry minus the delay on the trumpet at parts.
This is what I've gathered as to what studio and gear these albums were recorded on and used - note some of this could be wrong but just to get an idea of the sound and gear that I want to have access to:
-Herbie Hancock "Sextant" was recorded at either Different Fur Studios (at least for OD) or Wally Heider's (Hyde Street) studio A with a Quad 8 board.
-Herbie Hancock's "Crossings" was recorded at Pacific Recording using Quad 8
-Miles Davis "Bitches Brew" recorded at Columbia's 30th Street Studio (Frank Laico and Stan Tonkel engineers and Teo Macero producer)
If I wanted to go into a studio today and achieve either of those vibes recording gear and live room wise obviously going to tape, what options would I have that would literally transport me back into that kind of studio with all of that exact gear from that time period including mics? I'll take added vibe of the room as a plus ;) but that's only an added bonus.
here's the music I make just if you were curious as well:
Live Show
Studio Recording
Thanks
Steve
