Workin For the Weekend
Wow, a busy weekend is coming to a close. I mixed a Sullee song on Friday that i produced with my production partner Brent Kolatalo. The song is a bangin Hip Hop club track with kind of a 70's vibe influencing the music. Hot Hot Hot. Saturday was an "Event"ful trip into New York City. I endorse Event Speakers, and they just sent me a couple pairs of their top of the line Studio Precision 8 monitors, and all i can say is WOW, i finally found a speaker that will allow me to give up my beloved Event 20/20 Bas nearfields. Actually, I'll just move my 20/20's to one of my production rooms, I've mixed too many songs thru those things to let them go, they are family. Anyway, i did a quick photo shoot in the city on Saturday at Event's request so they can use my mug shot in advertisements if they want. I'll keep you posted if they do.
Saturday afternoon continued with a trip to the rehearsal room for Man On Earth. We worked up some more material, changed up some other songs, and added one more to the recording list. Tracking is scheduled to start this week. They have some tightening up to do before we hit the studio, and hopefully by late in the week they'll be ready to rock out the new songs on tape. Saturday night i stayed in the studio mixing another Sullee song featuring Claudette from City High. Claudette has one of the most beautiful voices on Earth. I finished that mix Sunday early evening, and started another mix for NYC rockers Skidmore Fountain. I mixed a song for them last week, and all the basic tracks were recorded here too. So, right now i'm printing passes on a song called "Up In The Air", slated for release on June 9, check them out. Tomorrow I'll be mixing some really cool indian music, and who knows what else the upcoming week will hold. I'm supposed to be getting in a song to mix from UK starlet Charlie Rose, and MTV Canada VJ "X-Quisite" is mixing her project here right now as well. I have mixed two songs so far, and I think I'm mixing 4 more for them. I'll have to see if my 500 channels of cable gets the MTV Canada channel. I think i'm supposed to get a bunch more Sullee mixes in this week too. Damn, I'm really glad i worked all weekend, otherwise i'd be WAY behind schedule. Next pass is ready to print on this mix, i'd better get to it.

Other really good things are in the works, but more on that later.
