The Things That I Do

there are some days when i just shake my head in disbelief.  one weekend, dean and i went on a lil road trip to meet with my friend and his boss, who founded a music company in the region.  the company’s going through a relaunch, so i can’t really give out any details (such as names and locations).  they’re currently in soft operations mode, and i think that means they’re fully functioning but not officially launched.  anyway, part of the music company is a fully-functioning recording studio, and because dean is looking to record new material, i decided to introduce him to the studio to see the facilities and meet the operators.  we had lunch, chatted about life, then let the operators do their thing as they gave us the tour.

thousand of dollars in about 4 square feet

we ended up sitting in the control room comparing their work to the mixes from other major studios in the area, mackinaw harvest’s studios and river city studios.  and for reference, i threw in one of the songs i was well familiar with, which wasn’t produced by any of these studios.  the song was very well produced because the group performing it had money to blow.  sadly, i can’t remember the song title, but i remember the group… ‘n sync.  so here we are, jamming out to ‘n sync on the board that mixed ricky martin’s breakthrough album.  like i said, sometimes i shake my head in disbelief.
