Miles from Pangaea
Miles from Pangaea made another stop by O Zone Lair studios to do some more recording. The first day, drummer Jared, could not make it out to the house so we spent the day setting up equipment in preparation. Since I play drums I took a seat behind the set for what we thought would be a quick jam session, but turned out to be far from quick at all. We ended up playing for about two hours. Bret picked up his guitar and he and Dave played off each other over the top of Frank and I holding down the rhythm section and in some places invoking changes for the other two to play off of. We played a few short jams that were cool, but the real fun came out of a 30 minute jam that left us wondering where we had been the past half hour. If you would like to listen to this jam click here. After that it was time to call it and day.
Sunday was my first time being in control of the recording session. Bret was there the entire time to guide me through the process, as well give me suggestions about how and why to do things a certain way and what type of levels to aim for. It was a really great experience, and since I really enjoy the music Miles from Pangea writes and records it made the process even more fun on my behalf.
Everyone showed up around 12:00 to begin work for the day. We started with the drums and as always Jared was right on point with his beats and knocked out his tracks in a decent amount of time. After he was done laying down his drum tracks it was now Frank’s turn to do his bass work. By this point it was getting later into the day and spending a full day in the studio can be very daunting. We managed to finish up the bass tracks for all of the songs but did not have time to work the guitar at all on this night. Dave came by later in the week to finish up the guitar tracks. Dave did a great job on his guitar and we got through all of the tracks in one evening after work.
These guys make great music and it’s always fun to work with a band that has everything together when they come to the studio and are ready to record. We try and give all bands that record with us a relaxed atmosphere and a creative environment. Hopefully that will help us to keep producing quality recordings and music for all to hear.
