A lot of interesting bits on the production side of things and what they've been using for their some of their recent mixes. They also talk about their new Armin van burren track they're collaborating on and the next Motorcycle single.
RM: As far as processing and effects on the vocals, what did you use?
Josh: Pretty much delay, reverb and compression - that’s about it. All done in Logic. I think there are people wishing they had all this great gear and not realizing they can do tremendous stuff with what they already have. “As the Rush Comes” was also made just using the ES1, that’s the only synth in it. It’s very common for us to have for something like “As the rush comes” like 100 plug-ins, so there’s a lot of processing going on.
To all who dare defy the power of software.

Shouldn't this be in Music Discussion, or if you really want to emphasize the productio part, the production studio?

Originally quoted from Dave Dresden
They don’t release [the remixes] so it doesn’t benefit anybody. It’s like sometimes they come out, sometimes they don’t. What they’ve done is basically created, and this is just from the remix world, a world on-line of file sharing because people want the music. They want these remixes – they want the full length, they want the radio edit, they want the dub.
Hehe, too right.

Originally quoted from the G&D Interview RM: What do you think has to change in the industry for the remix to gain the respect that it deserves?
Dave: Well, all the things have been put in place. The Grammy Awards have certainly allowed for the remix to get a little bit more exposure. The occasional radio play that they get certainly helps too. But at the same time, these remixes are getting 60-70 spins a week on KTU in New York and you can’t buy them. It’s kind of like the remix industry is being hired by people who don’t understand their industry.
I've often thought that, with these lousy commercial radio DJ's. Half the time they don't know what they're talking about.
