New Light Productions – Hip Hop Cats – 8/21/09

Hip Hop w/ a Message

Hip hip holds a special place in my heart.

One of the first albums I bought with my own money was The Fugees, Nappy Heads. I’m huge fan of Mos Def, and others so

Long Rider – 8/15/09

Rock, Country, Jazz - Long rider plays it all!

Long Rider was in the studio putting together a demo CD to generate some more gigs for the band. I was excited to work w/the band because I’ve seen them live quite a few times and I’ve always been impressed.

The band plays primarily covers & performs regularly at Lompoc’s, Wicked Shamrock bar, and other venues on the Central Coast.

Their repertoire includes tunes by The Eagles, Steely Dan, and the Charlie Daniels Band.

Gale their drummer brought in a set of electronic drums for the session.

The drum module offered only stereo outs which greatly limited our options for drum sounds

Vocals for T1stL – 8/15/09

Santa Maria, CA's T1stL

10:30am- 3:30pm

Danny and Kevin of the 1st Line came in to record vocals for the 4 songs we recorded on Friday.

I’ve been recording vocals in the live room instead of the vocal booth lately because I think it’s nice for singers to have a little more room to breathe.

Kevin and Danny both did a great job. I was glad we were able to keep up the momentum and quality of the earlier sessions.

Now we just have to comp the 3 takes of each song and run everything by Dom. Dom is more than just the drummer; he’s also in charge of quality control.

We joke about Dom being somewhat of a tyrant but his leadership is invaluable. Kudos Dom!
