VIDEO Blog- Symphony at Concertgebouw Amsterdam

Wow! I just got back from Amsterdam and while i was there i had the true pleasure of seeing the Symphony perform at the legendary Concertgebouw concert hall. I couldnt film during the performance, unfortunately, but i did get some good footage at intermission. this shows basically how the orchestra is seated, what instruments go where, and shows you a great view of the Hall as well as this insane pipe organ they had. And the sound of that place with that orchestra was truly exceptional. Maybe the best sounding hall I've ever been in and I've been in many. The video gets cut a little short because the usher was coming over :-)

Tips & Techniques - Piano Recording with MIGGS

I just wrapped up production for a rock band called MIGGS on Warner / RockRidge Records. I'm finally back in New York City and beginning to mix the project, but this was recorded down in Tampa, Florida where we were recording the band. This goes thru how i recorded the piano for the record. What microphones, placements, etc... This was during the recording of piano for a song called "Damage".

Enjoy!!! -Ken Lewis
