Pitchfork likes the new Porcelain Raft LP mixed by Chris Coady

I finally got a promo of this the other day and have been listening to it a lot.  Pitchfork likes it too… and they actually made me lol irl for the first time in a long time with this line from the review: “…the gorgeous “Put Me to Sleep”, which seems tailor-made to soundtrack a scene where Carey Mulligan is sad in some major metropolitan city.” Nice job P4K!

Geoff Sanoff recorded Sarah Brightman back in December

Back in December our Geoff Sanoff spent a week recording Sarah Brightman at Stratosphere Sound with producers Mike Hedges and Sally Herbert.  Good thing studio assistant Atsuo is good at what he does, because he is a pretty awful photographer!  That hazy guy in middle is Geoff.

Foo Fighters top Rolling Stone 2011 Reader’s Poll!

This one came in over the holiday break, so I wasn’t able to post earlier, but it’s still worth mentioning.  ”Wasting Light” by Foo Fighers, and engineered by our James Brown, came in in at #1 on the 2011 Rolling Stone Reader’s Poll!  Congratulations guys!
