Holy shit - that was beyond awesome (coming from a recording engineer/musician). The scene, the solar power, the music - everything. What fuckface would dislike this video?

Years pass and this remains a beautiful piece!

Nice meeting you guys a couple weeks ago at the Recording panel discussion at the Brookdale Guitar Show. Stop on by if you get a chance.

That was great! greetings from Honduras.

This is so sick. My buddy and I recorded my guitar cab outdoors on his property, to avoid sound reflections in rhe small-ish room we were recording in (just ranall the cables out the window lol....good to go!) It, VERY honestly, was THE BEST guitar sound I have yet to record. For multiple reason. Not just because there were ZERO sound reflections that way but because he had property, so we could crank the amp up to it's maximum potential and get a phenomenal sound out of it! We just protected against wind and cranked that shit up as loud as possible, amazing sound! It provides a completely sterile atmosphere if you can protect against wind properly and especially if you have access to properly where you can crank the amp up. The amp will literally BLOW the wind away with it's extreme volume and sound projection lol People bitch about the wind like it will completely ruin the recording. I can tell you, 100% from experience, that the wind will do ABSOLUTELY nothing at that volume. Playing with the volume at 8-10 on a marshal 4x12! I can assure you that NO wind is getting through those sonic explosions happening every millisecond hahaha. It is physically impossible for the wind to penetrate that literal "wall of sound". Each time you hit a note it is essentially a sonic explosion pushing against any wind attempting to come your way. NOW, I am of course talking within reason. This is just a regular day, with regular wind. Would I do it and gurantee results on a true "windy day", no! But on a standard jolly afternoon, hell yeah, do it! I don't know if I would do vocals outdoors but a LOUD as F$$$ Guitar cab, shit yeah! Awesome video guys and fantastic sound! I love that you actually used the acoustic properties of the outdoor locations to your advantage, pretty brilliant!

Thanks for the support guys!

so ill. saw you guys at evolvefest, keep up the good stuff!

Kevin, met you in woods yesterday, love this! Incredible Band! Liked and subscribed! TREE

Love it

Brilliant

I need this soooo badly!!!!!!!!!

Wait, you guys are really using solar power to record???? That's fucking awesome!

Awesomeness!!

The solar power is channeled through their bodies into their instruments.

THese guys been watching LIVE IN POMPEII !!!

On the roof of the car. A lot of power was stored into batteries for use at night (drum circle).

dis is a serious video !

That's top secret information.

This is the greatest thing I have ever seen. I'm not exaggerating! I've been dreaming of doing this since I was a kid! What mics are you using???

Spent our formulative years in a sort of Clockwork Orange prison where we watched live at pompeii on loop...

love it! i wonder what the logistics of the solar powering are. the vid shows some things, but nothing between the panel and the recording gear (unless i missed something). anyway i hope this starts a new trend!

Play nice :)

Ok, now where do I buy a solar panel....

duh, ProSoundWeb has the article that sent me to the video. "Metric Halo’s ULN-8 Centers Solar Powered Mobile Recording Rig." can't post a link here but it should be easy to find (pro sound web dot com).

ummm where are the solar cells?? someone time mark me where i can see them?

:43 seconds in on the roof of the car...
