Greetings crew….
Happy Holidays (Kwanzaa, Happy New Year, etc) to all. A lot of you catch my tweets about what I’m doing musically, so I wanted to give you a peek at where it all happens. All the composers, songwriters, musicians, etc have such a spot, most of them (obviously your truly) tend to call it a lab of some sort. I was talking with a friend yesterday, who’s a songwriter/musician/producer about studio workspaces and how they run the gamut of styles. I kinda thrive on ergonomics, comfort, and organization, etc…helps the muse flow freely. As for as tools, I’m a firm believer that the best utilize what they have to the max to get the results needed.
I’m looking forward to completing a long awaited CD that my partner and I have been working on, continuing work on a collaboration called “contempojazzsoulhop” with my boys Fave and Todd, a smooth jazz project with KLWJazz, more remixes for Philip Clark, gospel jazz keyboardist Kevin Battle, vocal group Destined 2 Praise, vocalist Dana Yates, more production work with AfterSix Productions, saxophonist Harron Evoria, annnnnnd my own CD project, whew. Ok, anyway, here’s mine, in it’s current form:
That’s about it…now u see where the tweets flow from, the hangout spot.
Happy New Year…
peace,
F!
Nice tour!! Digging all the Roland and Yamaha gear! oh and the Ikea couch 🙂
Thanks bruh…stuff from the early days. Decided not to get rid of it but work it in. U know when you get comfortable with a thing…”if it ain’t broke”…
What an AMAZING studio you have, Doug. I’d say it’s a musicians dream “Lab”. Thanks so much for allowing us to peek into your sanctuary.;-)
“Gospel jazz keyboardist”? Thanks, that sounds like a promotion.
