Eponymous Studios

It has been forever since I entered the studio, but this morning, I'm rekindling some inspiration thanks to the just released Best of 2024 Monstercat compilation that dropped yesterday. This one is blowing my mind this morning. New Braindead will release before year's end, I promise.

Hey, Braindead, where you been?

The first save of Braindead's most recent song - which still isn't finished - occurred on April 18, 2022. Two and a half years is too damned long. The fact is, the music was finished this summer in June but I haven't been able to bring myself to stand in front of the microphone, because I know - I just know - doing so is going to ruin what I consider to be the best track Braindead has ever recorded. Plus, since I quit drinking, I'm not nearly as uninhibited as I once was. 🙄 Hopefully I'll have the courage to finish it off soon.

"So, Braindead... How's that music thing going for you?"

Thanks to the fine work of John at Nashville Tape Transfer Service who baked and brought life back to the the 1/4" 8-track tapes that my band recorded in 1987, original masters of The Meese Commission's songs "Occupy" and "Enough is Enough" are now in the digital realm. We're having an insane amount of fun going back to those ancient, raw masters and remixing them 2023 style. The world may never hear them. Then again, who knows? 🤔

Merry effin’ Christmas! May your snare drums sound excellent in 2024.

When I record solo material, I call myself "Braindead". When I record with my band, my sole bandmate used to call himself "Dave Cee", and I used to call myself "Cleotis".

Braindead wants to cover this, one of his all time favorite songs. But after hearing these solos, he thinks twice realizing he can't top these licks.

This was a fun exercise. I only wish I had more free time to devote to wasting time on s**t like this. There are SO many songs that need to be bastardized by my rudimentary skills!

I've only begun to scratch the surface of what Izotope's Ozone can do, but so far I'm really enjoying learning how the different tools interact with one anot...
