already mentioned, but since zep is on the topic here, it´s the room. usually very large and with one mic. one damn good tube mic.

Yeah, a big 47 warmed up for an hour...and hit hard. But having Bohman playing does it all. It's like shooting a photo of a supermodel with a disposable.

Auan wrote: Martin Hannett when he was producing Joy Division's Closer famously took the drum kit out of the recording room and set it up in the studio's toilet to capture the tight, claustrophobic echoes. And it worked, too.

For unknown pleasures before it i heard he also had stephen morris record on the roof, a toilet sink was used as percussion and he also only allowed him to record one drum at a time.

Must have been a fucking pain to work with, but listen to the drums on that album...
