Vocal Recording Techniques
My first resource is one more or the whole process of getting a good vocal recording from microphone choice to how your room should look. It’s a in-depth guide I strongly suggest if you have or don’t have experience. It’s valuable to understand that a good microphone doesn’t necessarily mean a good recording.

If you want a more compact lesson how to to prepare from someone with a lot of experience, this is how Neal Cappellino gets ready for a vocal tracking session. The video is 22min long and I think it’s a good watch after the initial article above.

History of guitar Distortion
If your a guitar player you’ve most likely messed around with distortion. This video doesn’t really “teach” you anything but its cool to know how far we have come and too see the history of rock and roll.
I was trying to find videos on how distortion works but nobody actually explained how it works.
