BLUE TAPE

Walking around in the painters tape outline of every iso booth, every room in the new studio. this place really is going to retain the perfect balance of weirdness and intrigue, "wrongness" and "right-ness"... 

  This space will still have the resonant , crazy, mutant ability to have a sonic fingerprint all its own. 

Too many people invent a pressure inside their own brains to conform to a certain type of studio design. In most aspects of pro audio, we are feeling a certain phenomenon ring true again and again: experience wins. 

San Francisco

In San Francisco for a day, to see the last Sleepytime Gorilla Museum shows. 

glad.

SSL is in the building.

 

 

Bosendorfer

Going to pick up the Bosendorfer grand piano I bought very soon. Crazy.
Tony is going to pick up the SSL console we got for one of the rooms at the new studio. Both things will be sitting in storage for a minutem but its insane that we have them at all.

It Begins

The buildout of the new 5000 sq foot space Tony and I have now... has begun.
  We are still sourcing some of the more interesting aspects of the design, but I am super proud of where we are at design wise nonetheless.

  I should have some pictures soon. Two more giant glass block window thingies were installed as well. Lots of natural light in this studio. TONS.
  Thats important to us humans.
ALSO: I decided we should build a couple of time capsules into the walls and floor. Pictures of friends and loved ones that are no longer with us on this earth will be built into different sections of the studio.
   Creating the right atmosphere for the right kind of spirits to inhabit our new, giant studios...
