La Grosse Radio / Reggae / Webzine reggae / Interview / Project BobMarleytracks – Talk with Peter

This project with a worldwide scope and on which take part the Originals I-Threes, The Wailers, Brinsley Forde, Andrew Tosh, Shemabeth Mc Gregor, Rica Newell, David Cairol & more and of which we had discussed with David some time ago, interested us a lot. So we wanted to know more about it and we exchanged with Peter, the initiator of the BMT project.

In this interview, he tells us how he was touched by Bob Marley’s music at a very young age, strangely similar to David’s encounter with the King. Their path was really made to cross. How and why this project was born, the different meetings, his working method, finally, we can say that Peter gave himself up, and we find this exchange really fascinating, captivating.

La Grosse Radio / Reggae / Webzine reggae / Interview / David Cairol – Bob marley Tracks

Reggae lovers, we all have listened to the albums of the king, over and over, of the king of this musical vibe, Bob Marley and The Wailers. For a while now, a few fans of Bob’s music have been recreating some of his songs and have launched the Bob Marley Tracks project.

We followed the evolution of this project and contacted David Cairol as fate and talent led to being chosen to take some of the most beautiful songs from the repertoire of the legend.
The result is more than surprising. The work done between the heart and us at the webzine… we are very happy to give our own “brick in the wall” and let you discover this exclusive project, in our premiere.

DEARVRPRO plug-in

Many thx to Dear Reality for endorsing us with their awesome dearVR Pro plug-in. The all in one spatial audio plug-in that we use in several songs.
It’s awesome to create more room and distance simulation between audio sources such as instruments, FX and vocals.

Listen to this 8D mix of Natural Mystic only with headphones!

“I love to use this awesome plug-in to enhance our re-recorded songs with more depth, room and spatial sound.”
Peter wezenbeek, recording & mix engineer

We mixed an 8D binaural version of a few re-recordings. On every stereo channel we insert this plug-in and we simply dragged our mouse around using the plugin’s graphical XYZ-Pad to position an instrument or vocal anywhere in a 3D soundstage. It’s mind blowing!!

Listen with your headphones to this 8D mix of Natural Mystic and check it out how we placed all audio sources behind or in front of you, above or below your head, to the left or right, closer or farther away. With dearVR’s high fidelity spatializer the sound is no longer inside your head but out in the environment, where it belongs.
