Notes |
Recorded at the Wembley Stadium, London, UK. Nice recording, recorded with sport communication receiver. This is probably a monitor mix for (one of) the band members. Sounds pretty flat. From the info file: Muse Wembley Stadium London Saturday 11th September 2010 Icom IC-R5 > Sony PCM-M10 (16bit-48000hZ) > WAV > mastering in Audacity > FLAC > you original raw recording in mono - created stereo effect with Audacity 01 Uprising (cuts in) 02 Supermassive Black Hole 03 MK Ultra 04 Map of the Problematique 05 Bliss 06 Guiding Light 07 Hysteria 08 Citizens Erased 09 Nishe 10 United States of Eurasia 11 Ruled By Secrecy (cuts out) 12 Feeling Good (cuts in) 13 MK Jam 14 Undiscovered Desires 15 Resistance 16 Starlight 17 House of Rising Sun \ Time is Running Out 18 Unnatural Selection 19 crowd 20 Exogenesis: Symphony Part I 21 Stockholm Syndrome 22 crowd 23 Take a Bow 24 Plug In Baby 25 Knights of Cydonia Here is an Icom radio recording of the Muse gig at Wembley on the Saturday. It's an unusual recording and its far from perfect, but am sure it will be of interest to some :) The first thing to note is many of the tracks have the click beat mixed in with the music. To my knowledge, this is a backing track used by the musicians to keep in time to the music. This will either fascinate or infuriate you or both! Its not as noticeable in louder songs but it can be clearly be heard in most of the tracks, especially the quiter ones. These type of recordings also suffer badly with interference from mobile phone interference (and there was lots of these in the stadium ;) so many of the tracks have radio interference and burst of static throughout them. Tracks 15 + 16 are probably the worst for this. The first couple of mins from Uprising are missing as I was searching for a signal. There's also around 5 minutes missing between track 11 + 12, as I was looking for an alternative signal. Now for the interesting stuff. I can't be 100% sure, but this recording may be a feed from an IEM (In Ear Monitor), or possibly from a sound tech's feed of the music. During some of the tracks, especially the earlier ones, you can hear the backing vocals more clearly in the mix, with Matts vocals much quieter in the background. You can also hear a techy guy talking now and again in the background, usually just a quick 1 - 2 , to test equipment or something. Sometimes certain instruments / sounds are louder or can be heard with more clarity than others. Everything the band say to the crowd in between songs can be heard really clearly and the audience are also included in the mix. You won't hear any annoying chit chat in the background though as its a radio recording : ) Full setlist from here - http://muse.mu/gig/962/2010-09/wembley-stadium-london-uk/ 1.
