2010 Projects & French Toast

This past year has been studio project after studio project. I have absolutely LOVED each and every one; working with artists to create fresh music that is pushing each of their limits respectively, and making really beautiful and thoughtful art.

I have learned a TON about the recording process and how to create and manipulate the sounds I hear in my head (i'm not totally nuts). Each record has increased in artistry and I can honestly say that each one I have wrapped, I have been able to say it was the best studio work i've done to date.

It's honed my playing skills (i did most of the instrumental and programming work), engineering and mixing abilities, but most of all my listening. 'Twas a fun fun year and I'm humbled to have been able to work with everyone!

Here they are in order...


ALSO...Cora asked me last night for french toast. Here's what was waiting for her this morning when she woke up.

She was a bit overwhelmed.

Peace,

Contingent on Love

A few months back I wrapped up a big record producing project with Brendan Bradley (singer/songwriter from St. Louis). It was a 15 track album that we recorded in my studio for nearly 8 months. It was a truly great process. Brendan has some real talent and I think the record does a fantastic job showcasing it.

The record started very acoustic-pop and ended a very natural, organic, acoustic-pop album. As soon as we finished recording and were happy with the mixes, we headed down to Ardent Studios in Memphis for mastering...and voila, the project was done!

Brendan has finished the artwork and other final touches; its back from mass-duplication, and ready for distribution. This coming Saturday night (Oct 16th), Brendan and I will be performing at his CD RELEASE CONCERT. The show will be at The Gramaphone in St. Louis. Music starts at 7:30PM...

Come out to the show and get your copy. If you can't make it, drop by his website and pickup a copy!

Peace,
Ross
