Description: Embark on a journey through sound and space with one of the world’s most influential producers and engineers. In his debut episode, Rich Costey explores the creation of Muse’s “Supermassive Black Hole,” revealing how the band reinvented their sound with modular synthesis, digital signal processing, and experimental lo-fi techniques.
The episode begins with an overview of the band’s creative evolution. Rich delves into their experimental process, detailing how they incorporated new production techniques from hip-hop, electronica, and industrial music. Every sound has its own story: he explains the use of DI guitars, synth drums, vocoders, and boutique digital sound design systems.
Rich then goes even further, opening a multitrack on a vintage SSL console to demonstrate the key mixing techniques used on the original release. Learn about his approach to gain staging, signal routing, balance, and more as he recreates the rough mix in real time.
