So much has happened in my little NJ studio

Hey everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates lately, but believe me its kind of a good thing. I have been super busy recording and mixing down a number of EP’s and full length records for local new jersey bands.

I finally finished up the record for Post No Bills and the master sounds awesome. I think they are getting it pressed soon. I also finished a 5 song ep for a great local band called The Turnbucklers. That record I mastered myself and it came out pretty good. Both bands were awesome to have in my recording studio and I couldnt be happier with the sounds that we were able to get out.

Finally, I am working on a full length record for some really good friends of mine who call themselves The Somerville Town Drunks. Great record and a great band. We finished tracking the entire 12 song full length in just under 24 hours. Now its on to mixing.

After this, I am working with a band called Whack to finish up their 5 song EP.

Things have been moving along great, we have some new gear on the way and there are whispers of moving the basement studio to somewhere a little bigger and nicer in new jersey… but thats just a rumor right now…

First Session Success

After plugging in roughly 200 cables, mounting 20 pieces of rack gear,  and setting up 4 patchbays the studio had its first successful session on Saturday and Sunday.

A few of my good friends came down and help me debug the wiring and run a few recording takes on drums and guitars. Everything went smoothly with the exception of a few misalligned patch configurations. We are now well on our way to recording bliss. I think a few more sessions where I can really play around with the room sounds will definitely do me some good.

Besides that I am very happy with the progress :)
