Says Brian, \u201cIt was a great experience to record the album featuring such great musicians. I recorded and produced it entirely at my recording facility called Jungle Room Studios. It is an extensive analog\/digital studio featuring a modified classic 1980\u2019s British Trident 24 recording console, an Otari MTR 90 2\u201d analog tape machine, and a vintage Ampex 440c 1\/4\u201d 2 track analog tape machine. Along with classic outboard gear such as, the Neve Compressor 33609, Rupert Neve Designs Portico II Master Buss Processor, Neve 1074, Chandler ltd Germanium Compressor, and a host of other gear including an array of microphones, guitars & amplifiers. I love working in the analog domain because it sounds just like the records I grew up with in the 60\u2019s and 70\u2019s, nothing sounds like drums and bass on analog tape! I even recorded final mixes down to 1\/4\u201d tape and the mastering was done by David Glasser at Airshow Studios in Boulder, Colorado from those 1\/4\u201d tapes. No copy & paste, real performances from the heart!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
