Faces on Film – The Rule (Video)

May 15, 2014 by Rafi

The video for Face’s on Film’s The Rule is from their new record, Elite Lines. This song, and the other 7 tracks were recorded and mixed in Studio B, by Rafi Sofer and Mike Fiore, over the course of a few days. The entire album makes great use of our various tape machines: both the 2″ and Rick Harte’s 1/4″ Studers were used for tape delays. A dirty and quirky German tape can also be heard in various spots. Studio B was stripped of its carpets and wall hangings to make it sound as big as possible, and Studio B’s old upright features prominently in this song.

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.

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