i really love overdriving things, its been that way with me for a
long time. i can remember being at my friends house when he got a
4 track for the first time and we wanted to record a guitar part
with about 25 effects on it, just to be annoying. we had to stand
on the first floor while the amp and 4 track were on the 3rd floor
in order to avoid the whole thing just being noise.
but thats not the point. i actually wonder if maybe theres a
digital stage in the mastering/pressing process that is making
certain things sound bad. when i mix stuff down, i like my kick to
be the loudest most obvious part, and thats the way theo's stuff
is as well if you look at a recording of it. however, if you red
line a drum like that in an analogue gain stage, it should just
get really distorted and thick sounding, whereas like on the omar
s 004 there's a "farty" sound on the kick which sounds more like
digital clipping as opposed to that kind of analogue overdrive. so
