Just a couple of tracks from the full album release:)
This is the second album I have been fortunate enough to work with Eri Saito on and the album of her original solo piano compositions truly touches the emotion and consciousness of Eri's spirit! I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of it. An additional aspect of gratification comes from the fact that the album was developed thru a successful KickStarter built on the gracious support of Eri's friends, family, and listeners. I know for Eri and myself, these aspects and sentiments will always live in this music. Congrats again Eri!

I have been fortunate to have done some recordings with Joe Reid this last year. We are continuing tweaking the room acoustics and recording approaches and Joe was the first to work with our new piano. Certainly a great pleasure working with Raynel Shepard. She imparted her smokey sparkling voice throughout the sessions and I look forward to more recordings with Raynel in the near future.

It was a great pleasure to record with Dan Fox and the wonderful musicians he brought. I have had the pleasure of recording Dan before for a Guitar Bass duet, and the opportunity to record with him on trombone was another session to look forward to. Of course, Dan comes prepared and with his musicians in two hours, they produced four demo tracks with just two takes each. Despite being short, it was a joy to record these fine musicians and it is our first recordings with our new Focusrite Rednet system as well as utilizing some of our new microphone acquisitions. The result was some creamy intimate jazz recordings.
Dan Fox - Trombone
Mike Duke - Guitar
Conner Duke - Double Bass

Recording solo piano for Eri Saito's exquisite solo piano compositions was a great pleasure for us. She is a truly elegant composer and talented pianist, which is evident in her debut album "Dear My Life". The array of of sound textures conjured in her pieces both emphasize her performance skill and bring her personal messages to prominence in the music. She is most certainly an artist to follow. Please have a listen, visit her website, and buy her excellent and expressive album. She also become a fan as she may be performing in the New England Area. It was our great pleasure to record and work with Eri on this album and outside of enjoying the music she has created, we can't wait to hear the next compositions of this prolific artist.

Jazz Quintet Demo Recordings 2009
Nahum Corona
Nahum Corona
These tracks were recorded organically in one intimate but treated room.
Sessions were led by the talented musician/drummer Nahum Corona. Players were highly talented Jazzers that came to the studio set up in minutes. We had them miked and monitored within minutes and they were ready to play!!! 9 complete tracks and 15+ pure drum tracks were acquired in 3 short sessions. Certainly, some of the most mature and professional young players I have experienced. Besides being a pleasure to work with, they all had tremendous command of their instruments. I know they will all go on to have wonderful musical careers! These unmastered tracks in their current state require very little post-processing. Sessions were done prior to any outboard preamps and major upgrades to the studio. The room was fully treated for broadband absorption, but this was prior to the current additions of absorption plus acoustic diffusion. First track is a version of "Bemsha Swing" It was done in one take! Nahum Corona - Drums Mao Sone' - Trumpet Nori Shiota - Bass Christoph Sauber- Saxophone Dayramir González - Piano |
The Second Track is "South of Everywhere".
Nahum Corona - Drums Javier Rosario - Guitar Hoo Yung Kim - Bass Christoph Sauber - Saxophone Nikolas Anadolis - Piano *Also on the session: pianist -Mina Yu |
