Every now and then we get to track a product demo, and this one is particularly cool because that Dr. Z amp sounds incredible AND we got to use two rare vintage ribbon mics that play together really nicely to capture it. (Ficord/MBHO MB301 and an RCA KB2A).

It’s my birthday on this#microphonemonday so I’m being a little lazy. Yeah, I just featured a 74B, but this new one in my collection is a factory color I’ve never seen before! Recently refreshed with a new ribbon, cable, and motor mounts and given a nice polish over at Enak. I love 74B mics, and RCA ribbons in general, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen an RCA mic that wasn’t black or “tv grey”.
Great new video just dropped from White Label Analog, tracking and mixing at ICF, check it out!!
It’s lovely! Have a listen and brighten your day!

…to your streaming platform of choice! This song is super special to me and it feels good to be on the road with my first new release since Hubble Space Parade. PLEASE SHARE 🎈 and most importantly… enjoy!

Happy and Memorial Day. Today we have the entire .berlin studio collection together. Spanning 90 years of condenser microphones, in this collection are a pair of M94s, a pair of M49s, a pair of TLM193s, a U47, U67, KM86, KM184, KM100, and two 1932 CMV-3 mics that were branded Siemens and Telefunken, but were both made by Georg Neumann Berlin and engraved with that name on the back, so they definitely count! We’ve featured most of these before except the KM184 (utility cardioid condenser, you know it, it’s nice) and the KM100, which is a pretty exceptional small diaphragm mic with a changeable capsule favored by classical recordists, and the TLM193, which was my first Neumann mic when I was just building the studio. The 193s became my number one mic for horns, vocals, drum overheads, acoustic guitar and pretty much every other thing I could put them on. They don’t get as much use since the locker expanded to include so many classics, but they’re still some of the greatest sounding medium diaphragm condensers out there.
Are you awake? It’s time for a light breakfast! Beautiful new video from Chrystabell for a song we made at ICF just came out.
Little bit of Robsie coming back around soon after a long hiatus, excited for y'all to hear this!
Psssssst! It’s been a while, but… something’s coming SOON. 😉
I had a lot of fun mixing this behemoth of a song for Larisa Stow & Shakti Tribe. It'll take you on a journey from meditative chanting to rock and roll and back again. Enjoy!

Happy Earth Day everyone! Today, we release our fourth single to our new album. [link in bio] Available on all streaming platforms.

This dreamy energetic track was produced, mixed and mastered by Matt Parmenter, He played Bass as well! Guitar / Vocals done by Josh Blade. Andrew Solin on Guitar doing magnificent work. Also we had maple veteran Ryan Henderson on his thundering Drums. 4 tracks released so far but the new record has so much more surprises in it, can't wait for y'all to hear later this summer. The b/w earth logo artwork was made by .pvd Thanks to all the people behind the scenes making this happen they put in a lot of hard work into making it wonderful music. It means a lot, you the listener for enjoying our art after all these years.
Happy to have another new single to share with all you, Thank you for being patient and supportive it means a lot to us.

Nice write up in Guitar World about the new Lance Keltner album! Lance pitted me against Andy Johns’ mixes of some of the songs, made me sweat a little. I feel like my new versions did justice though. Proud of this big rock record!
Following his near-death battle with Covid last year, the Texas guitarist’s latest LP – 'Lance Keltner & Nuevo Retro' – marks a personal and creative rebirth.
Willie D and the Hip Pockets live in the studio! Clean video production by 3rd & Lamar, mix by ICF.

Another brilliant release that was a long time coming, Kady Rain’s debut full length is full of bangers, including a couple that were mixed, partially tracked and co-produced at ICF. Three full length, amazing albums in a single day! 🤯🥰
It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for….my debut album is OUT NOW!!!! Available everywhere!!! Listen and let me know what your favorite song is!!! This album is almost 8 years in the making and I can’t believe it’s finally out for the world to hear, I’m so excited! There’s pop bops, a pop punk and rock song, a ballad, a hyperpop remix with , and even a folk/country song and a full acoustic track, which I’ve never done before! I wanted this album to showcase that “pop music” isn’t limited to just one genre, and an artist shouldn’t be limited to just one sound, and I’m so excited for the world to hear it! Link below to listen to the album! 🌈✨💕🎶🦋🎸🤘
