This piece was recorded in one pass using two Audio Technica AT4080 ribbon mics in Blumlein Array feeding two channels of GML mic pre, an RME ADI-8 DS A/D converter and into Pro Tools 10. No overdubs. I used minimal EQ (a little 1kHz to pop the vocal up), reverb, compression and limiting.

Oh, and it was hugely fun! I'm proud to have these talented guys as good friends and thank them for helping me demonstrate the power of these Audio Technica AT4080 ribbon mics in Blumlein Array.

A Minor Scramble

Blues In Fat Tues

Studio rat. Genre hopper. Bass & piano player. Writer and builder. Lover of cheeseburgers.

I specialize in the "mistakes are interesting" school of production. So depending on your point of view my selections will either be sloppy or chock full of character. Feel is king. I hate making music with a mouse. Real pianos, tube guitar amps, and a lifetime of listening applied. 

Music and production I like for various reasons: 70's style jazz fusion, Headhunters during Chameleon phase, Frank Zappa, George Duke, Lou Reed, Bill Laswell, Rudy Van Gelder, Tower of Power, The Crusaders, The Meters, Steve Earle, Dwight Yoakam, John Prine, Kev Hopper, Mark Egan, Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, Art Pepper, Thelonious Monk, Charles Bukowski, Larry Graham, Peter Gabriel, Niacin, Spinal Tap, Bros. Johnson, Bootsy, Jamerson, Die Kreuzen, Dead Kennedys, Film Noir, The Cramps, Propaganda, Buddy Holly, Surf Guitar, Captain Beefheart, Neil Young, Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Rolling Stones, Western Swing, Scrunch up your nose stank Funk, modular synth music, ambient, soundtracks, early pre-baroque music.
