Nirvana - In Bloom (In an In Utero Kind of Way)

Показать описание

Here's the next part in the series of mixing experiments, an attempt to make "In Bloom" sound like as if it was released on "In Utero".

"In Utero" is my favorite album by Nirvana, music- and sound-wise. I've always been fond of the rough and honest nature of that album. An opinion that wasn't really shared by mainstream music listeners and even their own label and management.

There was always this thought in my head, what if the tracks on "Nevermind" were recorded and mixed in the same way as on "In Utero", and of course, vice versa.
Being an audio engineer for post production myself, I attempted to recreate the sound of each individual track, stripping down parts I felt weren't needed and recreating the roomy feel "In Utero" is known for.
Unfortunately the available vocal stems for "In Bloom" only feature the already double-tracked and effect-processed vocals.

Here's the result, tell me what you think, I appreciate any feedback!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to upload the entire remix due to Youtube's/UMG's policies.
I'm not intending to break copyright laws, this is just an experiment.

I personally like Nevermind's clean, pop-oriented production. I slightly prefer in Utero but I love Nevermind and I loved that we got what we got. Without it, and possibly without the production, there probably wouldn't be In Utero. Or at least, it wouldn't have as big as an impact. That being said, I would have loved to hear Nevermind released like this. It sounds fantastic and very grungy/grimy.

I'm really curious as to what Teen Spirit would've sounded like had it been on Utero. *hint hint*

I bet Kurt wished he did the Nevermind album like this. Good job, sounds great.

I definitely see the difference. Nevermind is more poppy and lyrically based with those pumped up, and In Utero is more bass-y with drums out the ass and it sounds harder.

I would love to see Nevermind songs "In an Incesticide Kind of Way". I love the punk sound Incesticide gives off and would love more punk from Nirvana, but sadly..

absolutely nailed steve albini’s recording/mixing style, especially with the drums. that’s always had a very distinct sound that i’ve found hard to replicate to the T, but you got it

Honorosis

the drum sound is spot on in utero love it

Nice version. You’ve single-handedly pointed out clear differences between audio engineers’ opinions on In Utero tracks like Steve Albini and Scott Litt’s different interpretations...

So freaking cool lol, from one Nirvana fan to another, thank you!

This is absolutely awesome! You definitely got talent at remixing songs dude. The fact that this is my favorite song from my favorite band makes it even better.

I would like to let Butch Vig hear this and see how he would react.
