Bop Stop Recording Studios

A Great pleasure working/recording with the Contemplation Quartet on some excellent Jazz music!!  The group features Tim Blackman (Piano), Sabrina Larkin (Alto Sax), Lisa Noordergraaf (Tenor Sax), and James Clark (Bass).  Certainly a cohesive, focused, and musical group and the resultant recordings are going be a wonderful album for the group!  (I am not just biased because James and I worked together for a while)  Additionally, they are all excellent people and I look forward to them sharing their excellent music and working with them in the future:)  Many Thanks Contemplation Quartet!! and keep an eye out for their music release!

Awesome to record an album for Erik Van Dam and Ryan Carraher.  If you know these cats then you know they have serious chops and furthermore they recorded their fantastic free improvisational explorations here at Bop Stop Studios.  Erik's huge Sax tone and crushing lines were a great blend with Ryan's guitar textures and harmonies.  Talented players and shared musical perspectives combined to create a wonderful album.  I thoroughly enjoyed recording, mixing, and mastering this album's creative and masterful music.  
I will update regarding the albums release and be sure to check out these artists performing around the Boston and New York areas.

Recording Alto, Soprano, Clarinet, and Flute with Richard Garcia - Classical Piano/Sax Duet, Jazz Quartet, and Solo Excerpts at Bop Stop Studios. Jiarong Li (Classical Piano), Chris McCarthy (Jazz Piano), Simon Willson (Bass), Avery Logan (Drums).

Great to work/record again with Sax talent Richard Garcia!!  Richard really displayed his range, tremendous control, and musical depth for a submission project involving Classical Piano/Sax duets, Jazz Quartet pieces, and a bevy of solo flute, clarinet, alto sax, and soprano sax excerpts!  Of course Richard brought the heavy cats for accompaniment for the classical piano duets with Jiarong Li and trio section of Chris McCarthy, Simon Willson, and Avery Logan.  Always great to record talent like this and this type of submission would not be possible without Richard's high level of determination, organization, and perspective on bringing all the pieces together with such excellence and precision.  

Few session videos to follow shortly!!!!
