Been a lot of updates on the brilliant dance music I have the pleasure of working on from East Africa, so here’s some guitars from just up’t’road in Leeds… I mastered the #Thank side of their new split release with @blombabies on @hominidsounds ••• pre-order here https://hominidsounds.bandcamp.com/album/bl-m-thank ••• #mastering #masteringengineer #masteringstudio #hominidsounds #leeds #cassette #newmusic #diyordie #declaredsound

It’s #valentines so here’s the first glimpse of the new love of my life, seven months of intense hard work building this from an empty mill into a beautiful studio with high grade mastering suite plus a live room for recording, my sweetest of princes and I ready to bring forth many musical babies into the world… almost 20 years of getting to the point where I can achieve my dreams and I genuinely couldn’t be happier #studiobuild #mastering #masteringengineer #masteringstudio #musicstudio #musicproducer #musicproduction #music #audio #sound #leeds #diyordie #synth #bass #drums #guitar #rock #dancemusic #noise #punk #hardcore #doom #metal #templeofboom #declaredsound

Keeping it #Yorkshire today! Just switched off having mixed and mastered the final show of old friends of mine xCANVASx – a 90’s hardcore mosh tech band, recorded the other week down in the main room @templeofboomleeds – made sure I kept it extra local by using some of my @drawmerpro rack, originating from just down the road in #Rotherham #masteringengineer #mastering #masteringstudio #ukhc #hardcore #punk #live #leeds #guitars #drums #bass #noise #heavy #diyordie #music #musicstudio #recordingstudio #drawmer #leeds #xcanvasx #householdnamerecords #lostinrock #declaredsound

Eventful day! Open! Sloth Hammer improvising live in the studio on opening day, absolutely monstrous sound!Two drum kits with added kick mic on the floor tom for extra weight, shattering heavy bass guitar (mic’d with a vintage ribbon, sm57, Akg d12 and DI from the Orange amp running through my old school Marshall 4×10 with the deeper cabinet, routed via a klark teknik EQ and drawmer 1960 from the matrix of the allen and Heath), two vocalists (both of whom insisted on holding the mic’s, and i can tell why, demonising it for hours on end to their cores and beyond) and two noise makers with all sorts of spring and plate reverbs, circuit bent electronics and drills and saws and for a minute there I thought i was still building! Full studio pics on the way when I can get a camera better than my phone to do it all justice.
