Robot Boy by LINKIN PARK Song Info
"Robot Boy", despite its seemingly simple premise, is one of the most complex songs on A Thousand Suns. In many cases, Shinoda and Bennington would record and double melodies and harmonies, then choose the "vocal hierarchy" during mixdown. With multiple tracks to choose from, they were able to blend and fade between each singer. "Robot Boy", for example, begins its first of three separate movements with six overlaying vocals — one main and two harmonies per singer — then balloons to more than 24 tracks packed with volume fades and EQ automation. "We decided to go for a more vintage vocal layering, a la the Beach Boys and The Eagles—again, to contrast a robotic, mechanical-sounding track," says Shinoda.
