Got a compliment from a client.
It’s great when you see fruit from all of your hard work.
Clients comment
You're probably working tonight but I just wanted to send a quick message to you my friend.
Holy Guacamole.
My man!
I am beside myself.
Your studio simply breathes. It's alive. Perfectly tuned.
Your ears are phenom.
I'm not easily impressed.
But you have kicked my ass.
So sure inspired again.
Thank you.
I needed that. 😌
It’s amazing how much more money it costs to get gear that has the mojo compared to something that still sounds good.
Good guitar amp $500
One filled with the mojo $2500
Good microphone $1000
One filled with the mojo $6500
Good preamp $300
One filled with the mojo $2500
Good reference monitors $2000
Ones filled with the mojo $9000
It’s the same with all elements
of the recording studio and the other part is knowing which elements to buy !!!
I’ve spent a lot of years accumulating the best gear.
And a lot more in learning how to capture musical magic.
You have to have it all.

As Luke Combs' new five-track EP The Prequel launches at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart (dated June 22), the singer-songwriter earns an honor on the Hot Country Songs survey that hadn't been achieved since Johnny Cash did so over 60 years ago.

If you are looking for some very good earbuds these are great for the money you have to use the largest silicone tips that they provide and make sure that your ear canal is completely sealed and they will sound awesome and very accurate.

If the vocals aren’t right, you’re throwing your money away. All Artist Development and Vocal Coaching For Luke Combs. CMA New artist of the year.
Book a session with me and have the advantage of one of the best vocal coaches in the world.
Singers !!
Don’t put your hands up and hold your headphones when singing.
Totally unnatural and you don’t stand on stage holding your ears while you are singing.
So don’t do it in the studio.
It would be like practicing anything one way and then when it comes to performance time, you do something different.
Doesn’t make any sense.
Athletes perform a lot of the same things over and over and over like tennis and serving and basketball and free throws and baseball players and the batting cage.
They don’t practice all that and then when it comes to game time, go change everything.
Use your hands to connect to the music like play air guitar, anything that connects you to the rhythm is great and musical and more natural.
Just a huge tip for free !!
I taught this to Luke Combs and now he is the CMA new country artist of the year.
Gear heads. Just got a pair of these and first impression I was blown away.
Which never happens. Till now
