Day 26 mixing "Day 26"
I'm still at Daddy's House Recording Studios in New york City mixing Diddy's new Making The Band Season 4 artists, now called "Day 26". And as eventual coincidence would have it, this is also the 26th day that i've been mixing on this and the Danity Kane Project. I've been here 26 of the last 28 days crankin away. At the end of today, I'll be really close to logging 100 hours in the last 6 days. If you count drive time, I'm definitely over 100 hours easily. Fortunately, i'm taking tomorrow off (I hope :-)
But actually a day off from Diddy only means a day returning to work on my own production projects and my independent mixing clients, so, no days off for me for the forseeable future. Good problems to have, I'll admit, but problems nonetheless, I'm not complaining.
I met Bad Boy/Atlantic artist "Cassie" tonight. You might remember her huge hit a couple years ago called "Me & U". I love that song. Anyway, I'm slated to mix a chunk of her album soon, so it was a real pleasure to meet her tonight. turns out, she's an absolute sweetheart, down to Earth, very talented artist with a great voice. I can't wait to get my ears on her new songs.
I'm in the studio right now tweeking vocals in the mix with super writer & vocal producer Mary Brown. Mary wrote the lyrics and produced the vocals to this song, and The Runners produced the track. This is the second time I've gotten to mix for The Runners. Last week i mixed a Danity Kane song that The Runners produced. Oh by the way, Mary just asked me what i'm doing, i told her i was blogging and she said to tell everyone she sends a big hello. So, Mary Brown officially just said hello to you, thanks for reading.
Anyway, I'm not gonna spill too many beans on this current song, but it is HOT!!!! i mean HOT!!! did i say its HOT? well, it is, i'm so glad i get to mix this song, just wait til you hear it. Its really weird who reads this stuff. I'm finding my blog posts on other bloggers websites, and fan sites for Danity Kane and the Making the Band stuff quoting stuff from my blog. Which is cool by me, just unexpected. Well, i need to get back to this mix and make sure every last little vocal note is sitting perfectly. Back to work!
