The Blue Ribbons – Magdalena
Here’s a take of The Blue Ribbons performing Magdalena for a live audience in Studio A, no gimmicks necessary thanks to a beautiful real time video production by Gipsy Pixel. With one fluid performance, the Blue Ribbons rip on through with a rare and composed energy, recorded and mixed by one of our senior engineers, Matt Beaudoin.
Color Channel – Out of Breath (RT)
Color Channel recorded this funky hazy tune with Matt Beaudoin in Studio A as part of the Converse Rubber Tracks sessions. Great bass, awesome vocals, and tight drumming.
Froggy and the Friendship – Sunny Day (Video)
Sean engineered and mixed this fantastic song, but what we really like about this is, well… ZOMBIES.
But we promise that hanging with Sean is anything but a Zombie filled experience. Mostly.
Parks – Sweater Weather (Video)
Check out this poppy tune from Parks! Matty B tracked drums and various other bits and bobs. The song won the Jon Lennon songwriting contest in 2013. Brian E King has this to say about the song:
“I wrote “Sweater Weather” on a typical, blistering summer’s day in Boston,” says Brian E. King, who shares frontman duties with keyboardist Liz McBride. “The Smiths-y riff came out of nowhere, and it was the fastest song I’ve ever written. Lyrically, it’s based on the optimism of a new romance surrounded by the beautiful — yet decaying — autumn season. Crisp late nights and pumpkin beers.”
