Dan Presland (Black Lava) Northern Dawn

Here's the 3rd single from our first record 'Soul Furnace'. This one is a ton of fun to play, and it's a pretty tough tempo actually. We approached this record with a very real and organic production in mind, keeping performances honest and the tones are basically what you hear in the room. Drums on these videos were engineered by Troy Mccosker, and mixed by Declan White.

I had a lot of fun putting this record together, it was very different to my normal approach - it was very much get in the studio and capture what comes out, pretty rock n roll style. The whole record was put together and tracked within a few months. I re-tracked every song off the record for these play thrus, so keep an eye out for those. As usual, no quantizing/edit/video tricks except my 3rd camera angle because I only have 2 cameras.. All drums are natural except a blended kick drum.
