The forthcoming recording room is coming together! Soon I’ll be able to record small mostly acoustic ensembles - live to analog, 2 track tape. Thanks @habitatforsyth for the great rug deal. #recording #taperecording #mastering #laqcuercuttingfromtape

Having a sweetly mellow Mother’s Day. Sending good vibes to all the mothers out there.

I don’t always love taking time to listen to test pressings but somebody gotta look for clicks and pops and distorsh. Then a project like @laura.itandehui comes along and it’s so musically engaging to me, that it’s a pleasure to cozy up with - even at this stage after many, many listens. What I’m hearing here preserves practically 99% of what the lacquer sounded like, which is always nice! #recordtechnologyincorporated #ampsandsound #valveamplificationcompany #acoraacoustics #twacustic

Livin that chemo life. After this I’ll be auditioning for Angine de Poitrine. #amyloidosis #polkadotsocks

Dopamine Kisses 💊💋 out now! Song Meaning: In any relationship it can be the most beautiful thing to see the best in the other person. You love them so much that you can see the best version of themselves when they may not see it. You see through insecurities, vulnerabilities, & want them to be the most authentic version of themselves as they exist in the world. The challenge lies in thinking we can change or fix someone else. Another persons desire to grow has to come from them. I’ve struggled with a ‘savior complex’ throughout my life from a religious upbringing & thinking I’m capable of saving other people from themselves. The reality I/we face is that we cannot change anyone. I’ve learned time & time again that it is not my responsibility. What I am capable of though, is walking beside them through their own struggles as they grow into the person that they want to be, not who I think they should be. 🫂 Written/Produced by: MISSIO Mixed/Co-produced by: @dwightabaker Mastered by: @mcsnare Music Video: Director/DP/Editor @robert.anthony Additional Crew: Tagged in Post #Missio #Alternative #NewMusic #dopamine #pop

Having a lazy couple minutes with my fur boy, Theo. He loves to hang out in the yard since it’s warmed up. #catsofinstagram

Feelin like dog shit today (infusion side effects) but I managed to get off the couch and put some finishing touches on a couple of cool tunes by #mattmccombs expertly mixed by @districtsoundlab

#winstonsalem I still love you after 10 years.

@itspetergabriel joined me for some evening chillax time. Maybe my fav album of his. #petergabriel #vinylrecords

I’m not always in a dark room working in music. They let me out on weekends.

Doesn’t get much getter than this one. Desert island disc for sure. The mastering I’ve done for two separate milestone Kiko reissues, is something I’m very proud and grateful of. Big thanks to my homie @lockjaw43 and all my hermanos in @loslobos - special thanks to @townsendmastering for taking good care of my baby. #mastering #loslobos #vinylrecords

Back on the HBOT train. #hbot #hyperbaricoxygentherapy
