It's 2012! We made it! Not so fast, we still have to get through it. Mayans be damned, we're going to sit in our basement and make music. Anyway, since our last "update" in Summer of '11 we've had an extremely busy Fall. The Lisps started production on their ambitious recordings consisting of all the songs from their new musical, "Futurity" which opens in Cambridge, MA this March at the Oberon/A.R.T Theatre. Occultation also started work on their debut album of dreamy metal being released by Profound Lore/Invictus Productions this Spring. Fergus and Geronimo made an all analog recording in Studio B for their second album on Hardly Art records. The Secret History, Wingdale Community Singers, Sabrina Chap, The Big Con and Hilly Eye have also been in and out working hard on their new material and that continues into 2012. Lots of other new projects are getting started so hopefully you'll be joining us too. In other news, Charles had a baby girl so he finally has an excuse for his irritability and dangerous caffeine intake! Seriously, we can't wait to get a toy drum kit down here so she can bash away. Congratulations Charles! Enjoy y'all!

     The studios are the product of Josh Clark and Charles Burst, longtime residents of Brooklyn and players of fine music. We built the entire space (with enormous help from Stephen Paul, Simon Kahn and friends. Thanks!), bought all the gear, maintain the gear (with some help from Andrew of Purple Audio, Matt of Coral Sound, and the fine folks of Main Drag Music), and we actually record sometimes. We have had the pleasure of working with many incredible bands, including Fergus and Geronimo, Nicole Atkins, The Pernice Brothers, Radical Dads, Ted Leo and The Pharmacists, Takka Takka, Obits, Beirut, The New Pornographers, Nina Nastasia, St. Vincent, Andrew Bird, Bird of Youth, Palomar, Julian Plenti, The National, Negative Plain, The Lisps, Westbound Train, Okkervil River, Crystal Stilts, People, The Stalkers, David Grubbs, Neko Case, Rick Moody, Tiny Masters of Today, The Wingdale Community Singers, Roadside Graves, The Secret History, The Ballet, Antietam, Peeesseye, Stars Like Fleas, Talibam!, Federale, The Special Pillow, Inouk, Sharon Jones, Antibalas, Hopewell, The Little Killers, Radio 4, The Oxford Collapse, The Double, Kele Okereke of Bloc Party, The Brought Low, Psychic Ills, The Rogers Sisters, The Waylons, The Cloud Room, Tralala, Mal Blum etc... Thanks to everyone for the help, word of mouth and beautiful sounds.
