How many of you have learned from or have been inspired from the bands that you have recorded? I heard a vocalist the other day that really opened my mind up to pronunciation and cadence.

What has inspired me most in those situations are a band's preparation and clarity of vision. When they know what they want to accomplish and how to accomplish it and then use their time wisely I really admire it.

There's a duo I regularly record who both work in the wine industry. I now know almost more about wine than I care to, plus I look forward hugely to the end of their sessions.

In Vino Veritas.

Iron & Wine?

Oh no, one of them's an ironmonger.

I once did a session (as a musician) with this guy here in france, it was the 4th and last day i had rented and so we were mixing the tracks. By the end of the day we started drinking exellent red wine and I eventualy smoked some hashish. we ended up listening to some recordings of his. he said:"what you are going to hear now, is a human voice recorded 24 times on 24 tracks" (adat).
he opened each channel at a time quite fast one by one, and by the time he reached the channel n° 24, something very strange happened.
I realized at this very moment that i was drunk.
the music was loud, and sounded like one lonnng identical note sang 24times with lots of intermodulation. at one point he shouted:" can you feel the waves?!" it was definitly a tsunami. i was feeling sick, and when i stood up to go to the toilets, i felt terrible. i crawled all the way there and and vomited. Remember being on the floor near the toilet with this gigantesque wall of sound in the background.

i hate it when that happens. when someone else makes you sick from your intake.

also, i've always thought steve was in a good place to be in a band like shellac hearing every goddamned band (who has the time and money to go to EA to record) who wants to be shellac.
