Jen and the Gents new recordings

[Beer of the Bass]

My band Jen and the Gents, recording in the kitchen. It's live except for the backing vocal and harmonica overdubs. We should really have put those dishes away before setting up the camera. Enjoy!

We also have a new album on the way, which will be on our Bandcamp page...

[Me And My Bass]

Nice one mate, video sounds great. What did you use to put it together?

[Beer of the Bass]

Thanks!. Our drummer does most of the recording and editing, so I'm not certain on the finer details, but the drums, bass, guitars and Jen's vocal were recorded live into Cubase using a Mackie desk/interface (not sure of the model), then we overdubbed the backing vocal and harmonica. The video was captured with a digital SLR on a tripod behind the drummer. The bass was recorded with an AKG C411 contact mic, as we were getting too much bleed with anything else, with everything being so close together. I don't know what software the drummer used for the video editing though - I'll have to ask him.
