I just finished mixing an 8 song album for JB Martin Smokin' Dogs, a 3 piece act from the Little Valley, NY area. That's going to be getting sent off for mastering by Carl Saff (Saff Mastering) later today. The album is original music in a classic rock style that makes me think of a mix between Steely Dan and John Fogerty. I did what I do best, I gave it a warm analog sound with clarity. There's a lot of analog plate reverb on this record, plus natural room reverb and a healthy bit of tape echo (slap back on the lead vocal). It sounds big.
I mixed an album for the Elektra Kings (Warren, PA/Jamestown, NY) recently, but I think they may want to go back and revamp some elements of their performances on it. Great sounding record that I'm super proud of. Keep an eye out for that one! I mixed an EP for Buffalo, NY rapper, Soda Pope last month. Not sure when that's planned to be released, but it is definitely his best work so far! Mastering tracks for LA based artist, Marvin Etzioni recently. Today I'll be working on another one of his older tunes. These are tracks that were pulled from some low quality analog tape recordings made back in the 1970's. Cool songs. MORE GEAR! (see Equipment)
