I have so much gratitude for all the kind words about my new song Final Cue ❤️ Thank you all so much!
To celebrate I’ll be playing a set of original songs at this Wednesday in Los Angeles (8pm). I’m delighted to share the stage with and 🙌🏼 It’s sure to be an evening to remember 😊
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, see you Wednesday 👋🏼

I’m stoked to help the crew get funding for their next record! Head to their page and follow the link to contribute, I know they’d appreciate it ❤️

I love the hypnotic riffage this group lays down and I’m excited to be onboard for mixing 🤘🏼
The band tracked this little teaser song themselves and I had the fun challenge of making it sound as heavy as possible. That’s a worthy goal, right? 😉
Thanks for checking it out and please consider supporting ✌🏼

For those of you who are curious about classical location recording, I have a new Blog and Patreon post on my websites that cover 3 mic techniques I tried during my recent work with the Peninsula Youth Orchestra. Links in my bio and below.
There’s also a free download of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony in Its entirety (33 minutes in uncompressed high quality wav!) so you can hear a sample of the techniques I’m writing about. Thanks for checking it out! ✌🏼

Congrats to on the release of his new single ‘Are You Out There?’ 👏🏼
This tune was recorded late last year and mixed in early 2022. It features .cellist on cello and on vocals. It’s a dynamic love song and before I give too much away… Costis did a wonderful write up on his website about what the song was inspired by and the production/recording process. There’s also some cool behind-the-scenes photos! The website link is on Costis‘s page and you can take a listen wherever you stream music ✌🏼 Enjoy and thanks for checking it out! ❤️

Happy !
This week is brought to you by this Tascam 388 mixer/tape machine owned by my good friend 🙌🏼
Cal writes hauntingly beautiful acoustic singer/songwriter tunes and I’m doing my darnest to coax the vibiest tones from this 1/4” 8track setup. We’re getting there! 🤘🏼
It’s really surprising the amount of fidelity that you can squeeze out of this machine with proper mic technique and gain staging. Not to mention it’s a very different approach without a screen involved, I have to keep my ears 110% involved. It’s got me excited about tape again…
Oh and Cal also digs photography when not behind the mic 😉 📷

A couple weeks ago I holed up in cable building mode! I specifically made this 4pair XLR cable for the front 4 microphones that I use for my orchestra recording set up…
Instead of having to run 4 individual XLR lines up a tall mic stand, I was able to do it with this single cable.
As my gear rig gets larger, little hacks like this one help to streamline my setup and teardown process. The multiple little improvements go along way, and also look good 😎

A big gracious thank you to all that help support and/or are a patron of 🙏🏼

Today is Small Business Saturday and I’m here to remind you to support small businesses everywhere. Extra kudos for supporting people you know, who are part of your local community, or are owned/operated by Woman and POC ❤️

As an extra bit of appreciation from my corner of the world, I have started a recording oriented blog at www.PiqueRecording.com to help those learning or wanting to dig deeper into the art of recording. The first post is live - it’s called ‘3 Versatile Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphones Sub $1000’. I spent a lot of time putting these thoughts together and I learned a ton from doing the necessary research… I hope it helps you too. Pique website and Patreon link in my bio🤘🏼
