The Beatles: Helter Skelter (Drum Cover)

music has been pitched down to avoid copyright Well here we are. After a brief period of doing non-Beatle covers, I’m happy to give you the first Beatles cover of the summer, Helter Skelter from my personal favorite Beatles album, The White Album. A song that was influential to the heavy metal genre, Helter Skelter was written entirely by Paul McCartney that came about after reading an interview of Pete Townshend saying that The Who’s “I Can See For Miles” was the loudest and dirtiest song The Who has ever done. This then gave Paul the inspiration to write “Helter Skelter.” The group recorded the song in two different styles. On July 18, 1968 they went into the studio and recorded three long takes of the song in a bluesy style. The first take clocked in at 10 '41, the second 12' 49, and the third take was a staggering 27 '11, the longest track the group recorded, which unfortunately remains unreleased. It would be nice to hear, but I don’t think it’ll ever get released. Maybe in the future it will, but I’m not expecting a release. An edited version of take 2 would see a release on 1996’s Anthology 3, while the full take would be released on the 2018 50th anniversary edition of the album. They returned on September 9 to re-record the song in a much heavier style with a more suitable length. 18 takes of the song were recorded with the last take being the one released on the album. At the end of the last take, Ringo Starr apparently threw his drum sticks across the studio and then yelled the famous “I’ve got blisters on my fingers” outburst. Ringo used his Black Oyster Ludwig Kit for the song. He would eventually get his 5 piece Hollywood Maple kit on September 11, the day they started working on “Glass Onion”. For this video, I included the original drum part, as well as the overdubs that Ringo added later. Listening to the isolated track, I noticed an echo most notably on the snare drum, which is very prominent in the mix. To achieve this sound, I sent the snare track in my DAW to a new track, to achieve a louder attack and added a short delay on the new track. I recommend wearing headphones to hear the echoS Like most Beatles songs at the time, the snare is miked from the bottom rather than the top. The overdubs have an echo on them as well. At first, I switched the positions of the crash and cymbals but I thought it sounded much closer to the album if I used the ride cymbal. The cymbal heard in the song has a low sound to it and if I used my crash cymbal, it would sound too high of a pitch. To give the drums a stronger attack, I added a slight touch of distortion on my main drum master track and put a limiter on the track as well to avoid it from clipping. After playing this song multiple times, I actually felt like Ringo. At the end of the final take (the one used in the video), you can see me throw my drumsticks up in the air and one hit the rack tom microphone. I am using the 2009 Remastered version of the song from The Beatles: Rock Band video game as it does not have the fade out heard in the song’s outro.
