Curiosities
An active curiosity is what keeps me creating, or at least creating content that doesn’t sound exactly like my previous work.
Producing down at Forbes St Studio
An old friend / client, Dave Symes (Boy & Bear bassist), recently asked me to help produce the sounds for a record he has been commissioned to do for Universal Music. The record celebrates 50 years since Credence Clearwater’s first release on Universal and features some of my favourite Sydney-based musicians.
Voice Over – VIVID narrative
This VIVID Festival I got to work with the talented mob at Ample Projects again. As with last year, I was recording the narrative content for their projection/ sculpture/ light installation at Taronga Zoo as part of VIVID 2017.
Lessons from the Masters
It’s week 2 of my Masters and I’ve been asked to blog on whether I consider myself more of a divergent or convergent thinker. For those of you wondering what on earth I’m talking about, our starting point for this is a Youtube presentation by Anne Manning.
Sydney Writers Festival – Podcastaways
I still have words and vocabularies rolling around my head days after recording for five days straight at the Sydney Writers’ Festival.
Master of Creative Industries
Good news: I received a Clive Pascoe Fellowship / Scholarship to start my Masters.
Jonathan Baker aka Anatole Piano Session
This week I was down at Music Feeds (old Megaphon Studios) with the talented multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Baker. The task at hand; recording some piano passes for his forthcoming LP under the Anatole alias.
Nic Cassey Mountain Session
I’m currently producing the 3rd record for Sydney-based Folk artist Nic Cassey. The first two records we recorded at Music Feeds (aka Megaphon Studios), but for this 3rd record we wanted a different experience.
SAE – Another graduation of savvy Producers
It’s that time where I have to say ciao to a bunch of young producers who I’ve grown fond of.
Choice Magazine – Ears For Hire
About a decade ago the studio where I was working was contacted by Choice Magazine to supply some audio engineers to rate a variety of new consumer audio products.
