Hey people, here's a cover of the Coldplay track "A Rush Of Blood To The Head".
I got really into the album this song came from a few years ago after having only really heard "The Scientist" from that album, and while the album as a whole is really good, I really liked the title track and wanted to eventually do a cover of it. At some point I watched Coldplay's "Live 2003" DVD which included this song, and I liked the piano outro on that live version and decided to incorporate that into my cover.
This one has probably my favourite drum sound I've gotten, especially for the fact that it's only 4 drum mics (kick/snare/two overheads in the Glyn Johns setup).
The piano that goes throughout is in two passes -- one that's playing the main piano part and the other which is playing partial chords, and playing in reverse for the whole song.
Easily the biggest part of the guitar sound in this song is the long delay/echo that continues after each guitar phrase, and I used the UAD Galaxy Tape Echo plugin by Universal Audio for that purpose, which emulates the Roland RE-201 Space Echo. That plugin is on all of the electric guitar in some way or another, and also on some of the piano tracks.
