"It's not a new note."
I met these guys when working at Oarfin Records. Ryan, the lead singer and rhythm guitar player, was an intern for a spell. He was able to book time in studio B for a great rate. That moment started a friendship and musical partnership that has lasted over 10 years.
***Search this blog for Victor Johnson. He was the original bass player for North Styrenn and played guitars on this release. You'll have a better understanding of the history I have with these guys.
We recorded this album at The Hideaway Studio. I fondly remember the sessions as being really productive and fun. We worked together in various studios before the record so we were all comfortable with the process. I think we captured the best moments of the band and all learned a lot about production. I can say that I am very, very happy with the results of the album (despite not being given official production credits. Ooh am I still chapped about that).
We tracked to 2 inch and transferred to Pro Tools. This was the first time I recorded a nose hair trimmer.
