My sister who built this site for me suggests I put posts here a bit more uplifting. So I will.
Let’s see. As a studio owner and musician I would say the thing that keeps you going is your friends and God. And most of all Folks like Adriano who comes over to make things FEEl like a studio.

God bless you Adriano.

And anyone who comes to this studio.

Thank you!

Honestly, I am not talking about you the reader. But when it comes to distortion guitars just put the damn guitar down. if you can’t even play a note clearly without distortion then might as well give up. Ha! Just kiddin.

But honestly try to think of something pretty, like Michael Piano or the Cors or something else. when I think music it has to uplift girls, people, and things. By the way you need things to operate.

Ok I may not be on the music track but I am successful. Maybe not in the studio when it comes to recording others-because I don’t have a real drum set. But honestly, I just would really like to play with someone just to play music.

Or better yet, pray with me or for me that I will get enough money to put my cd into press so all of you can relisten to my music once again.

Thank you.

 

 

Today we worked on some vocals for his song “That’s the girl.” It was superb!

What I wanna say is this. Ok I may not have a Neumann, I may not have an SSL.

 But all STEM tracks were done on an ART tube. Behringer mixer & Rode mic. Those are ALL I will say again, A.L.L. cheaper then what I have in this studio.

 Thank you. Rant complete. No comments are welcome. Thank you again. Thank you.

 

Oh yes, and a real drum set.

Honestly I am not smart.  Or esle I would’ve given up on music already. But honestly when you think music, what do you think? I think:

Snow Patrol’s: Chasing cars

Rascall Flatts: What hurts the most

Maroon 5’s: She will be loved

All american Rejects: Move along

Match box twenty’s: Disease

Hansons: Mmmmbop

Ok…and maybe STEM’s: Crave….just kidding.

But really when you think a good album you don’t think ok now is this good for the public. Is this good for my soul. You might…But is this good for fu***ing me…  RIGHT?

Honestly good songs are good songs. Not just because they preach at you. But because they are good songs. Those never end.

Today I was thinking how theory is sometimes used, especially in classical music. I personally learned alot from studying theory and music notation as well. Honestly when it comes to the studio though you need to have your socks up and know how to play your instrument better then all the theory that is out there.

When it comes to being the engineer I have learned that alot of patience with my equipment has to be there as well as the skill of working with plugins and the artist. Equipment fails at times. So do people’s/artist’s image of themselves when it comes to the studio.

But honestly I believe that just perservering at what I do, I will not only get better, but I just might like what I am doing.

Today we worked on securing vocals for Adriano’s “Let’s get together” & “For some real soul” He will take back the takes we took and will listen for the best one to decide which one is the best take.

All the best Adriano!

Today we worked on Adriano’s “Let’s get together.” It was fun!

Yesterday we tracked Adriano’s “That’s the girl.” I put in some of my own backup vocals on this track, and we used a tamborine like on most of his songs. He will be coming back again to record 7 more of his songs here.

Thanks alot!!!
