Italian News by RSSIl Fatto Quotidiano: Madonna e la romantica gita a Venezia con il compagno Akeem Morris, sul set della seconda stagione di “The Studio” e il revival di “Like a Virgin” con Julia Garner
Il rapporto tra Madonna e l’Italia è fortissimo e la cantante non perde occasione di sbarcare nel nostro Paese per motivi di lavoro o di piacere. Ed è quello che è successo in questi giorni a Venezia, dopo la superstar mondiale si è presentata con il compagno Akeem Morris tra sorrisi, spritz e amarcord tra le note di “Like A Virgin“, il video dell’iconico brano è stato girato proprio in Laguna. Nella clip del revival del brano del 1984 c’era anche Julia Garner, scelta per interpretarla in un prossimo film biografico.
Ma non è tutto perché la cantante è stata presente alle riprese della seconda stagione di “The Studio“. La serie statunitense è ideata e diretta da Seth Rogen e Evan Goldberg e vede al centro il personaggio di Matt Remick (Rogen), neo-nominato capo dei Continental Studios. Remick cerca di salvare la società in difficoltà in un settore che sta subendo rapidi cambiamenti sociali ed economici.

Madonna and her romantic trip to Venice with boyfriend Akeem Morris, on the set of the second season of “The Studio” and the revival of “Like a Virgin” with Julia Garner.
Madonna’s relationship with Italy is incredibly strong, and the singer doesn’t miss an opportunity to visit the country for work or pleasure. And that’s what happened these past few days in Venice, where the world superstar appeared with her partner Akeem Morris amidst smiles, spritz, and nostalgia, accompanied by the notes of “Like A Virgin.” The music video for the iconic track was filmed right in the Laguna. The clip of the song’s revival from 1984 also featured Julia Garner, chosen to play her in an upcoming biographical film.
But that’s not all because the singer was also present on the set of the second season of “The Studio.” The American series is conceived and directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg and centers on the character of Matt Remick (Rogen), recently appointed head of Continental Studios. Remick tries to save the struggling company in a sector undergoing rapid social and economic changes.

Ivan Reesei'm obsessed with the musician underscores right now. her new album U is some of the best DIY production i've ever heard. (to say nothing of her songwriting, sense of melody, vocal delivery, lyrics, etc)
i'm working my way through a 10 hour stream she did breaking down tracks from her album Wallsocket. i'm only about an hour in, and i've already picked up dozens of production techniques and cool ways to use ableton. (i've spent smt like 5,000 hours in ableton, so picking up dozens of new ideas in an hour is pretty exciting for me.)
i bought her album on bandcamp so that i could get the WAVs and analyze how they're mastered. figured i'd share my findings from looking closely at the song "Music" through a bunch of meters. let's go!
instantaneous LUFS tends to hover around -7, peaking at -5, which is waaay up from the -14 everyone says spotify will nail you to. true peak is as high as +.4db.
bass is really clean under ~90hz, mostly triangle, occasionally sine for the wubs. and it's loud — peaking at -6db. and it goes quite low, down to like 28hz at times.
bass is pretty much mono under 120hz, even though the bass synth has a bunch of higher harmonics that feel spread, so overall it feels wide.
looking at the track in mid/side, it seems like the bass is mono all the way up to like 8k, then it goes wide. weird.
in the chorus, the kick, snare, crash, and vocals (especially) are the most prominent elements in the side, and pretty much everything else has most of its energy in mono.
in the verses, the vocals flip between being pure mid and split L/R (separate takes, not haas)
at 0:50 when the bass goes wide and out of phase, there's still a lil hint of bass in the mid down at 60hz for the mono mix. but we get a lot of side bass at 90hz. also, this is one of the only moments in the song where we hit negative phase correlation, otherwise it hovers at +1 for the whole song.
also at 0:50, we have a pure snare hit in side. spectrum looks like humps on a camel's back, peaks at 80hz, 1k, 8k, notch at 300hz.
looking at overall EQ, the mid is sort of a downward slope, with a gentle roll off above 10k (see image). side is more flat, roll off below 100hz and above 10k
waveforms overall look pretty slammed, but there are _tons_ of pockets of silence, and most of the energy is in the bass — both probably help to avoid fatigue. peaks all look nicely rounded.
having the kick and snare show up in the side really helps them stand apart from the bass, i guess. i also slightly suspect the bass is a few ms late so that we get clearer transients from the kick and snare.
alright, cool, that's a lot of reference for me to work from as i dial my own mixes/masters.
[did any of this make sense to an outside observer? was it interesting? questions?]

Mads KjeldgaardExtremely specific question for Mac users that use midi loopback: Has anyone tested if doing a physical midi loopback on your sound interface is more effective than using IAC virtual midi loopback ? I find the latter to be surprisingly unreliable, and no software alternative exists for macOS', afaik.

A study for the second character in the double-portrait I am planning.
It's based on a scene from Ghost in the Shell S.A.C. 2nd Gig Episode 11 "Affection", but the look of the character, Motoko Kusanagi (草薙素子) is based on 攻殻機動隊 ARISE.
The next step is to apply watercolour to it. I will do another study of this part to experiment with different techniques and eventually move on to the full drawing.
