For the past month or so, our James Brown has been in Los Angeles engineering the new Matchbox Twenty album with Matt Serletic producing. Here is a photo of James (with Matt in the background) I stole from the bands twitter.
Earlier this year Kyle “Slick” Johnson produced, engineered and mixed the upcoming LP by one of my favorite bands at the moment, North Highlands. They shot a video for “Benefits” and Pitchfork debuted it today – click below to watch!
Head over here to Insound.com for a free download of all 14 songs recorded at our CMJ event *and* the hilarious interview each band did with author and artisanal pencil sharpener David Rees. Weekend, Widowspeak, Gauntlet Hair, Tall Ships, WATERS, Cavemand & 1,2,3 all took part and were a pleasure to work with. Thanks to Geoff Sanoff for recording and mixing and Matt Shane for mastering the session.
Head here to here to listen to the new So So Glo’s track “Lost Weekend”. Kyle “Slick” Johnson recorded and mixed it just a few weeks ago at Fancy Time in Philadelphia.
Matt Shane shares a trick for beefing up weak sounding drums while at Rubber Tracks a few weeks ago – click here to watch and learn.
Check out a great behind the scenes video on the recording of latest Weathervane Music session with Creepoid right here. Watch Kyle “Slick” Johnson and engineer Jon Low discuss their approach to the whirlwind session. Have you ever seen two sharper looking dudes in your life?
Creepoid. Odds are that you haven’t heard of them unless you live in Philadelphia. That is not a dis. You will hear of them. In fact, if I had to pick a band (today – only 3 days after CMJ 2011) that will probably play 10 shows at CMJ 2012, blow up on blogs and then blow up IRL, I would have to pick Creepoid. Our Kyle “Slick” Johnson produced their debut LP late last year and just recently recorded a song of theirs for Weathervane Music. It’s called “Old Tree” and you can download it for free & watch a very cool “making of” video featuring Kyle here. Now go to October 15, 2012 in your iCal and enter in the reminder “see every show Creepoid plays at CMJ”.
Brooklyn Vegan just put up a nice post about our event last Friday and included some new photos. Check it out here.
