This Month in Mix

Los Angeles-based Evil Twin Productions (www.eviltwinproductions.com) recently finished up TV and radio spots for Radiohead's latest release, Hail to the Thief. “We used minimal voice-over, allowing Radiohead's first track, ‘There There,’ to be the main focus,” commented Evil Twin co-founder Harri Mark. Co-founder Kristin Armfield added, “We wanted the music to take center stage. We pretty much only used [Sonic Foundry's] Vegas: from the music edit to voice-over recording and mix. Though in our opinion, it's the creative talent — editors, voice-over talent, producers — behind the equipment, not the equipment itself, that makes the spot. Oh, and dogs. We find it helps to have dogs in the edit room: They're our muse, if you will.”

Evil Twin has also worked on spots for Lisa Marie Presley, Green Day, 50-Cent, Michelle Branch, Steely Dan, Nirvana and many others.
