Buffalo Tom on Spin.com

January 20, 2011 by Staff Engineer

New song "Guilty Girls" by Buffalo Tom on Spin.com.Buffalo Tom will have a new record out March 8 called Skins- “a solid set of taut guitar pop and earnest wordplay — exactly what made some of their ’90s efforts, like Big Red Letter Day and Let Me Come Over, into college radio staples.” (Spin)

Corin Ashley – Badfinger Bridge (Video)

August 6, 2010 by Rafi

Corin Ashley’s Badfinger Bridge is off his 2013 release New Lion Terraces. It was recorded all over the place, INCLUDING a studio called Abbey Road (as this video makes clear)!  Not sure anything on this song was tracked at Q; BUT, Corin did drag his 1″ MCI 8 track tape deck to Q for the sessions (where it still resides in Studio B. Remote-less and free of an auto locator, it makes the operator’s life that much more interesting!). 
Dave Mattacks played drums straight onto that tape machine, and Kay Hanley contributed vocals to a few tracks that appeared on New Lion Terraces.

This video brought to our attention thanks to the good folks at Daykamp Music who have a nice blog dedicated to music videos from local artist. 

Corin Ashley’s website.

The album was released on Elefant Records – visit them on Facebook

At the beginning of the year @theworldiswrongpodca At the beginning of the year @theworldiswrongpodcast shared this story about Mike Denneen and Jon Brion and Jellyfish and Spilt Milk and the tension between paying tribute and blazing a new path... in control rooms and recording studios all over the planet folks hunt for familiar sounds and invent their own... there are no rules.

Happy 20th Anniversary to Josie + the Pussycats! Getting the chance to work alongside some of the greatest songwriters and filmmakers and to be the voice of the glorious @rachaelleighcook was the weirdest, funnest experience of my career. Snaps to @stereogum for giving this whole production the propers it deserves 😸

Disco Inferno. It may not have the cache of Zelda’s, Narcissus, or even Cache in the city but Summavll could get down at Surrey after a bite at the Rosebud. While the Rat boasted a row of pay phones outside, this spot offered just one. #surreydisco #rosebuddiner #davissquare #1970s #disco #getdowntonight #dirtyoldboston
