Do I Wanna Know?
Arctic Monkeys
Song : Do I Wanna Know?
Duration:02 min / 1h25 Subtitles: English, Spanish
Description
A decade after the release of Arctic Monkeys’ stratospheric fifth album, Tchad Blake unearths the original multitracks and remixes ‘Do I Wanna Know?’ from scratch. Watch him breathe new life into one of rock’s most iconic records, offering an uninterrupted glimpse into his digital mixing workflow.
After establishing his initial balance, Tchad delves deep into his experimental mixing workflow. Learn how he uses aggressive saturation, filtering, and digital reamping to transform the recordings into extraordinary new sounds. He also demonstrates his intuitive approach to EQ and tonal balance, showcasing how he blends different EQ emulations to create an immersive stereo mix.
Tchad’s aim is not to ‘beat’ the original mix, but to reinterpret the song through a new lens. This process allows him to reflect on his growth as an engineer, his evolving tastes, and his enduring connection to the band’s music – almost a decade after it first shook the world.
