didn't we have this a few months ago , oh well ..I'd say there are a few but if i had to pick one that has inspired me in full circle , i'd have ot say "the Fragle" by NIN . Trent's not only a good artist but also a fine producer .

Ya, we go through this every few months. To pick out a single recording over and above others is impossible.

soundgarden--superunknown
i think the album's pretty good itself--although its not one of my top five favorites musicwise...
but theres just something about the recording. a sense of space.

another good one is tool--aenema--
there are some organic sounds in there that give it some strange sort of life.

radiohead--the bends
always seemed very real to me. like a hot wire.

radiohead--ok computer
great instrumentation and textures

just to take it off course a little...out of interest, what is everybodies favourite reording made by someone on hrc?

im a huge fan of jues's flipcycle stuff, tony d's got some cool acoustic stuff, dbs got some good tunes in progress, and jamies dnb track is the4 dogs...

theres probably a few ive left out coe to think of it, but these are the obvious ones...

fav HRC? hmmm, one of collapses, but I forget what the title is, the second-to-last one he posted here...although, I have to say I like flames beatles-esque stuff, flipcycle, I can't help but give Hero the ranking of one of the most improved engineers...his recordings have gotten exponentially better sounding since I have known him and listened to his stuff.

This post would go on and on if I mentioned everybody's music that I like, but I have to say that there is a lot of talent visiting this website.

One of my favorite commercial CDs for production is "Up" by R.E.M. They've got a lot going on and it all just falls right into place.

As for HRC recordings, pretty much everything I've heard from Jues has been stellar, collapse is awesome. Jamie's recent posting was very nice. I think db is right. There's too many good ones to pick. We've got a lot of talent running around here these days!

forty - you picked some awesome albums! i disagree with you about the music on superunknown...the grooves are insane. getting into the full on chorus on the title track gives me chills every time.

you can be sure that there's a lot more about ænema than just tracks and mixing.

oh yeah, and anyone who hasnt checked out anything by cotton mather before, should - not just for the spot-on tunes but also for the ridiculously brilliant and innovative production techniques...

sing to god parts 1 & 2 - cardiacs
guns - cardiacs
both albums (well three) are amazing construction from the songwriting to the absolutely brilliant production.

justified - justin timberlake (gf bought it but the pharrell williams and timbaland productions are really ineresting)
millenium - killing joke - part recorded in egyptian tombs - the echo is intense

but of all time - eerrrrrrrr....
king crimson - beat

from that list you may not realise what tunes i make!

ok, so he's stan laurel in a not good disguise, but he didn't produce the album, pharrell williams of n.e.r.d. produced half, while timbaland produced the rest.

some of the layering and effects, especially the beat box stuff is amazingly produced.

in my defence, my partner bought it cos she likes it, but i wouldn't pay cash for it, although i will listen to anything once!

please folks,check out the cardiacs...i know i get all happy clapper about them but if you are a musician you HAVE to listen to them at least once.

shambon muther-trucker!

just finished really listening to 'something wicked this way comes' by herbaqliser. cinematic breaks with some good hip-hop funk thrown in, and the orchestra is very well recorded. they've really managed to get a big band sound with it too.

eeee-heeee! get ma bad self!

I'll second that "Something Wicked This Way Comes" is awesome. Check out the artist "Cinematic Orchestra" as well.
