The Wayback Machine preserved the lovely page Steve set up to remember John Grabski III. I know the text still circulates on the web, but if anyone gets comfort reading Steve's thoughts on life and death, maybe salvaging the formatting of the page and putting it on the studio's site would be good.
I wanted to buy that record today and saw they were sold out. Know I’m late to it but fuck that record fucks me up everytime


I’m so indescribably sad about Steve still doesn’t feel real

This was shared on EA's social media account. I can't think of a better tribute to the man than to keep the studio running well into the future. ❤️
Hey Everyone,

We (Greg, Jon, Taylor, Mac, and Brian) wanted to extend our heartfelt gratitude for all the support we’ve received since Steve’s untimely death. It’s been wonderful seeing a steady stream of friendly faces and hearing the building shake with music ever since. Naturally, people have been asking about the future of the studio, and what our plans are.

We aren’t going anywhere. Electrical will be around for a while to come. We have many irons in the fire, and a calendar chock-full of great musicians, engineers, and yes, producers. Inevitably, there’ll be some minor changes as we adjust, but we’re going to keep this place running as an affordable, crazy-good option for people making records. Smooth as always.
Don’t hesitate to call or email. Someone’s always here.

Yours in the fight,
EA
