March 1st

Arizona or Washington, who knows. Freedom is in Sedona and in love. It looks like he is seeing the band rehearsing and living there to prepare for touring and promoting their CD.

At the moment Rob Peebler is working as an engineer in Silent T and Producing CD's for musician friends and family. He is working on a project with Rejoice Israel and has been helping me with Bill Spies project.

Casey Garland will be returning weekly starting March to have fun laying down tracks for the River Runner CD.

Sarah just did a quick sample of her composing skills for a short film she produced for her dance group. She is so good in so many areas, I think it makes her a little crazy sometimes. I said, don't worry about it, you can do it all.

I haven't been writing here lately. I have tunes I haven't finished. It seems I need to write my way through some stored up pain because each time that type of song comes up I just stop writing it. I have never censored my writing before so I guess I had better get over it or write it down.

Software and hardware and where do you go. There is so much to continually learn in a study. Digital, analogue or should it be digital that sounds like analogue.

What to plug in where and how do you get effects in the headphones?
How come everything was working before I went to the bathroom? It is always an adventure. There are certainly some times when I feel like if I never saw a computer again that it would be just fine.
But there are so many things that we can do now and I love the fact that we can record music at home and compete with the big boys in the quality of sound we get. I look forward to spending more time playing music in front of the mic and someone else sitting at the console.

We are considering moving out of state or at least out of this area in which we live. If people keep moving in we may just move to a bigger place.


The busy versus the art of music are often a challenge. We love music, we want to promote artists and help get that good sound out there. Keeping people on their toes and up to date on studio time can be a challenge at first. Pay as you go is critical to the survival of a little studio, because time has shown that if you aren't paid as you go, you mostly don't get paid. Besides we built this studio to record the music we make and it seems to fall the end of the queue continually. Artists, including us, don't like to deal with that business stuff in relation to music.

All in all things are good and we look forward to a productive spring.

God bless
