Gear Finds, Episode 10: Boss Dr. Rhythm DR-3

I’ve had my friend’s DR-3 floating around the studio for a while and finally got around the making a video about it. Thanks Dean for lending it to me! This has brought me into trying something new for my next recording. More to follow!

The YouTube channel hit 50 subscribers!

I know it’s not a huge number, but I’ve finally hit 50 subscribers after about 10 months.  Thanks to everyone who has subscribed, it has been a fun time and I’ve learned a lot.  I did a video on recording by yourself, since I do a lot of that.

Yeah! It’s Friday!

Happy Friday everyone!  Just wanted to do a quick, off the top of my head, post about changes that have been happening with me! Another year of Barbershop is starting up!  It will be an interesting year and I’m hoping to improve my baritone singing ability so I can bring it into my recordings. I… Continue reading Yeah!

Things getting busy, everything is getting pushed.

At the beginning of summer, usually around June 1st, I get into my head that this summer, I’m going to get a massive amount of musically things done.  Write songs, record, and simply get things done.  As usually, it is September 5th, and I really didn’t get that much accomplished. It is a never ending… Continue reading Another summer over

Throwback Thursday

Mike, Dean & Paul circa 1995

These three guys, in the picture below around 24 years ago, started recording their first CD.  It was not finished, until now.  We aren’t ready to release it on the world, but it will be coming soon.

Expanding my horizons

We’re close to finishing the CD, hoping for an early May release but starting to see it may become a late May, early June release. I’ve decided to take my production / engineering skills to local bands for free and help them get a decent recording without having to pay for studio time. If you know… Continue reading Expanding my horizons
