The Emptiness Machine (Live at Wembley)

[martinez]

Linkin Park just released on their YouTube channel the live performance of The Emptiness Machine, recorded at Wembley Stadium in London.

Beatiful performance, a fucking awesome mix by Kevin McCombs! Can we have more live stuff mixed by Kevin instead Ethan?

[Trumtram]

Great performance! Great video!

[Sukotto]

Great to see pro shot from Wembley, though would have loved for a track other than TEM. This is what, the fourth recording put out? (Burbank, Seoul, Brazil, Wembley?) 

 

felt the Cut The Bridge performance from Wembley was solid, looking forward to a pro shot of that

[Cesar656]

Great mix on this one, it sounds HUGE

[bloodbath]

Time to release the full stuff!!

This sounds soooo good! The quality of the music and vocals is great and is perfectly mixed with audience sound. I wish live releases would sound more like this.

[Sabi]

Oh man, this was awesome! I really wish we’d get the full Wembley show.

Of course it does matter. TEM would sound different if the band would go with the Rich Costey version instead of the Neal Avron's one but they decided to go with the Neal's mix. You already have Lost in two versions showing how it would sound if it was mixed by two different people.

Oh yes, I’m VERY MUCH on the “it matters” side of this - but there’s a SIGNIFICANT portion of people who aren’t

Which two versions of Lost are you referring to? I only know of one that was officially released on LP's YouTube channel. Do you mean the version from the concert in Sao Paulo?

I think he is refering to the M20 versions of the song. We got the officially released version which got remixed for the release of M20, and there is the original Andy Wallace mix from 2002 (which only got included on the CD version of M20 for whatever stupid reasons).

Are those significant people in the room with us right now?

They’re everywhere. They could be in your house right now!

The mix on this is really different.  Not sure what to think - think he overall did well but it sounds like the crowd completely cuts out when the guitar kicks in on the chorus. For once, might prefer the Ethan stuff over this for the new era of the band. Or am just used to it to the point where something new sounds different. Ethan appears to mix Emily's voice a bit better.

I mean, yes and no. The band's ultimately going to be the ones who give a mix their approval, but that doesn't mean there's only one exact mix that would get approved.

I thought there was too many annoying shots of the crowd although I won't complain if they release the full show.

Looks and sounds great to me, and would love an official release. I’m hoping that when the FZ cycle ends there will be an official live album to tide fans over.
