Michael Valdez Trio
We really love it when a band plays together – and especially when they do it in front of a camera crew! Check out this sweet video of the Michael Valdez Trio ripping it up in Studio A’s live room. Engineered and mixed by Joel Edinberg, this recording showcases our piano, and our recently modified iso booth, which can keep drums sounding tight and dry.
Xenia Dunford – Flesh and Bone (& Everything Within) Side B
Xenia Dunford hunkered down in Q Division with engineer Joel Edinberg and producer Forrest Pettengill to produce this bewitching collection of songs. We love how ambient and ethereal the band sounds – beautifully surrounding Xenia’s super present voice.
Simona Minns releases debut album “A Hunger Artist”
Recorded and mixed by Joel at Q Division, Simona Minns’ “A Hunger Artist” is an experimental dance theater production that follows the journey of a fasting artist who lives for, but simultaneously resents his audience. Both a theatrical performance and a contemporary interpretation of Franz Kafka’s parable of the same name, it has been performed across theaters and performance spaces across Massachusetts.
Joel Edinberg
Joel joined Q Division as an intern in late 2011. He got into recording because he loves the creative process, and loves working with bands of every style, especially those that don’t quite fit in a standard box. He has since had recordings featured on various TV stations including Comedy Central, National Geographic, TLC, Lifetime, and the History Channel. Joel is also a saxophonist who currently leads the Somerville Symphony Orkestar and is the Co-founder and Chief Musicologist at Vindor Music.
