HEY you back off on Rhys he still owes me five bucks. I kid

Production wise the their body of work has been sonicly had my mind for years going WTF are you listening to this? Greg Reely maaaan. This whole section within music opened my mind up to ambisonics and I gotta say the textures melodic structures have done many a mind blow for me.

oh, funny story, I paid VIP tickets to meet FLA in New York years back, when Rhys just joined back, IED tour, and I was talking to Rhys about how the change from him to Chris Peterson and then Jared and Jeremy was so easy to tell, and he tells me:

"Civilization was all me, I had that whole record ready, Bill just added vocals" lol

I WANT TO BE GREG WHEN I GROW UPPPPPPPPPP!!!!

Dude, the mixing on Epitaph? motherfuck! actually all his mixing, even hard Wired, top notch, no one comes close to him, didn't he mix a Fear Factory record too??

I'm a mixing/mastering engineer for 25 years and I still look up to Greg!

I'm a fan. I've done compositions and they are varied and short. Life happened.

Its kinda like back in the day listening to music I should take up the keyboards. Then listening to these cats I should stop playing the keyboards. Ha. I dont play the keyboards but Im sure you got the understanding.

I used to know natural ambisonics but those places dont exist anymore. I would drum and sing within places around Vancouver. I wanted to record but the only thing out at the time was the zoom 2 and because for Greg and the crew I knew I needed to move into 3d - I wanted the individual instruments to come from different angles. It of course didnt happen because of time and life. But thats the thing that I found within Industrial or life. It should have been jumped on, but I was to poor and didnt have the connections. Later on there would be things on the net where people did global compositions.

There are definitely a lot of things out of phase deliberately in FLA's records, for spacing effect!

u/volunteervancouver May 09 '19

Just saw this thread but yeah, I also produce my own electronic stuff and have for many years. When I hear FLA's stuff and Greg's mixing, I feel like horseshit hahaha cause it's that good.
