Bottom Shelf Recording Talk

In this "2 days late" episode, our heroes explore the concept of the battle of the bands, how it should run, and how it unfortunately does.  Inevitably, a tangent happens at the start and never really recovers.

In this deadbeat episode, our heroes travel down a series of music scene tangents and half complete stories.  Joey acts the sober co-host to keep our Guest, Tom B., producer and frontman of Tomb and the Dead Language, on story and James rambles in many directions.  Par for the course, the guys didn't even really start the conversation they wanted to have...

In this anger filled episodic rant, our heroes discuss lyric writing styles, local bands doing things that are either cool or upsettng, and how metal-heads are like rednecks.  Joey starts a conversation about hairstyles (again), and James does his best "angry old man" impression about how "music just isn't what it used to be."

In this sellout of an episode, our heroes discuss Black Friday sales, unhappy customers, and miscommunicated projects.  Plus, the puppy is cold.

In today' episode, mastering engineers BEWARE!  Metal producer, Roland Rodas (Dire Omen, Vaalt) joins our half-decaf hosts to talk about recording an 11 song album in 3 days, and mastering woes.  This inspires Joey to go on another rant about how much he hates mastering engineers. In the background, the bunny, the puppy, and the Mary play and distract.  

In this episode, our sleep deprived heroes travel through a maze of emotionless singers, crying musicians, the colour of frequencies and spending too much money on gear.  GAS is a real disease, people.  Throusands of engineers and audio professionals, around the world, striggle with this affliction every day.  Donate Now!

In this dusty bottle of "too early for xmas" drivel, our heroes talk about being unprepared for for rentals and recording sessions.  They complain a lot. I mean a lot.  I mean, It's obvious they were unprepared for today's episode.  But then both need sleep.  Especially Joey.  And you know how he gets.

It was Joey's birthday recently… but he's still recovering.  Be sure to remind him how old he REALLY is.  

In this episode, we talk about how expensive some gear costs to run, why analogue tape is NOT better, and how everything can be fixed in mastering.

In this episode, we're joined by singer/songwriter, world traveller, and music therapist, Tiffany Sparrow. She breaks down our pre conceived notions of what music therapy is, and just barely scrapes the surface on some of the more exciting (i.e. nerdy) details of music therapy in a hospital setting. Brains be rattled, or soothed… also, Joey commits to stabbing James once an episode.

In this brazen episode, our heroes wander aimlessly without a guest talking about why Joey won't work with Rappers, James' bad luck with deposits, and the "rental department."
