it all comes down to
rules I live by when I Produce any artist in this studio: Track with soul as
much as purpose. Mix with feel as much as tone. And always, most definitely always' "Make it Special!!"

Session Updates
Sept/November Session Updates
• Tracking for a Brand New Bobby Rush Record Titled; Plugged In.
• Tracked the first Live Rhythm Section for a debut record I'm producing on my son Paul's new Metal band
Obstruction of Power... Not only did the rooms and drums sound amazing but even as heavy as both guitar amps
were cranked, there was virtually No-Bleed from any of the drum mics. It was a beautiful threshold to cross
for the new Studio... I can also safely say that I am Super proud to be at the helm of this one...
