Yellow Dubmarine- Abbey Dub
Recorded and Mixed by Chris
What a pleasure it was to go through this classic record. Reimagined under the guidance of producer Kenny Liner (The Bridge), the tracks are a comprehensive tour of Reggae/Dub. I was finally able to put the UAD Roland Space Echo plug-in through its paces. Here's their version of Oh! Darling.

Mike McFadden- Walking Slow
Co-Produced, Recorded, Mixed and Mastered by Chris
Mike McFadden's third record with me. This EP covers a lot of ground for such a young guy. You gotta appreciate an artist like Mike...he has a huge amount of talent but only works harder at improving. He has another one coming out soon.
"Forget What They're Telling You"


John Mancini Band- Sun King
Co-Produced, Recorded and Mixed by Chris
I mastered JMB's first record and was thrilled that John chose to do the second record with me. He actually recorded a lot of the guitars at home with a DI, then brought the files to the studio for reamping. This is a great way to work, get your parts down off the clock, then take advantage of the studio's gear arsenal.

WTMD Presents: Live from the Bunker Recording Studio
I have this great series going with WTMD. We pick artists to come play for an audience at the studio, then four songs are picked to be played in a segment on Baltimore Unsigned. It's a lot like "Live at the World Cafe", including an interview with Sam Sessa and a Q&A with the audience. Here are two tracks, one from Kenny Liner and Caleb Stein and one from Avocado Happy Hour.

Jon Wood- Vacation Brain
Co-Produced, Recorded and Mixed by Chris
This record really took advantage of the studio's live recording capability. Jon had his band ready to go and everything went down in just a couple of takes. Minimal overdubs, great live feel without compromising the tones. Here's the opening track.
Jesters of Kindness
Produced, Recorded and Mixed by Chris
Jesters of Kindness are steadliy making a name for themselves in the regional jam band scene. In their words:
We are here to accomplish a feeling of happiness through music for everybody.
...Of course happiness is different for every single person..
..but hey, show us the definition of happiness and we'll show you the definition of music

 

I've been doing acoustics consulting for the Baltimore Rock Opera Society. B.R.O.S. is a tribe of borderline insane performers hell bent on writing and producing live rock opera. They have taken over and rejuvenated an old theater and I've been helping them tame the acoustics so that their voices may be heard! Check them out and don't miss their new original rock opera coming this May.
