Coleman Rogers Photography<\/a><\/h3>

We're really pleased to hang Coleman Rogers' photos in Studio B's lounge for the next few months. Coleman is a long time <\/em>music nerd, if you will - he's an engineer, a tech, a teacher, a photographer, and like the rest of us - a devoted fan. The work that hangs in Studio B's lounge is a combination of concert photography and art photography. In his own words:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Coleman spent his high-school years near Detroit, working in his darkroom for the school newspaper and yearbook, as well as the theater. The theater is where he learned to love shooting in the dark. After thirty-plus years in and around Boston and New York recording studios, as an engineer and service technician, Coleman retired and spends most of his time photographing shows and experimenting
with film, Polaroid, and digital photo techniques.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In his live music photos, he tries to capture the raw energy of the moment by becoming emotionally involved in the music, paying full attention to the interplay between the artists on stage. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

His photo experiments grow out of his Guided Chaos process, where randomness and entropy are part of the process. This current body of work represents a release of intention, where his creativity is centered on play for the sake of play, embracing mistakes and eschewing perfection, with no attachment to a specific outcome.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Coleman's work will hang for the rest of the year (prints are for sale btw!), and we're planning on hosting an opening at the end of October. While the work is easy to see if you're working at Q, we're happy to show it to anyone by appointment. Please drop us a line to schedule a visit!<\/a><\/p>\n

Le Couteau - Now You're Nowhere<\/a><\/h3>

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Last summer we had Le Couteau in for a two-day lockout session in Studio A. At first the goal was just to capture their sound and release it as close to live as possible. But after hearing everything, the band decided to take their time with the process and we are glad they did. Save for a few hours of guitar overdubs in Studio B, the band tracked their whole record in those first two days. Driven primarily by frontman\/guitarist, Jean-Francois Blain, the band blends their various influences to make something familiar to shoegaze fans but unique to each of the players in the band. Phil Murray sang backup and played bass, and Faris Albayya played drums. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Q Engineer Terrance Reeves co-produced and recorded. The album was mixed by local friend, Dereck Blackburn (of Quiethouse Recordings).<\/p>\n
