Why mini? Cause my studio is not very big. We will look at; some ways to make a regular bedroom/house recording friendly, some microphone techniques, mixing, editing, and other stuff.  $20,- will get you in, but like I said I have limited space, so if you wish to participate contact me as soon as you can. Bring any questions and we will see if we can find a solution!

Cheers!

It’s a Pearl Vision Birch five piece kit – 10″, 12″, 16″, 22″ – in Ruby Fade (beautiful) I’m hoping to beat the crap out of the pearl heads and get some new evans. I’ve just set it up and it sounds great! I will be using it for the next Rupert Rocks session this weekend.  I’ll post some pics soon!!

There has been talk about another compilation disc showcasing rock bands of Prince Rupert. I think it’s a fantastic idea! We have learned a lot from the Rupert Songs album and soon the expenses of that album will be paid off. That means that funds will find their way to the musicians and artists. All we have to do is keep promoting the album – not only in Rupert!

There is a lot of great talent in town, so let’s let everyone know!

If you would like to have a song on the Rupert Rocks album contact us (tomlehar@summitsoundlounge.com , or kate@gardenrecords.ca).

Cheers!
