Influences: I owe a tremendous amount of credit to the following people and places for inspiring me and teaching me along the way: (chronological order from past to way back in the past)
Alessandro Cortini - Mastermind of ModWheelMood, Keyboard & Synth Player for Nine Inch Nails - former fill-in bandmate of my band Clockwork - Basic Tracking Engineer for Clockwork (bass, guitar, vocals, keys) - Recorded all guitars, keys for Clockwork 2002 EP. Thanks Alessandro for showing me that great recordings can start being recorded in your apartment on Lanewood Avenue in Hollywood. Also thanks for introducing me to Logic (the recording software) and for sharing your love of Mac computers.
Byron DeLear - Singer / Songwriter / Engineer / Producer - thanks for your creative help with mixing my band Clockwork's 2002 EP - some of your Production Ideas are ideas I use with clients today.
Nick Nolan - Studio Owner / (Producer / Engineer / Guitarist / Bassist / Drum Programmer / Keys / Singer / Former Bandmate) of my band Jet Pack Heroes. Nick showed tremendous versatility and taught me that you can wear many hats and make it work. Watching Nick work in the studio was amazing - he challenged me as a writer, vocalist, musician, and performer. As far as studios go Nick was the engineer/producer I spent the most time with one on one. He had great work ethic and inspired me to keep the vision and the dream that I could have my own studio. Many thanks Nick!
John Wilkes - Owner of Joco Sound - John hired me to run his sound systems for events around Los Angeles and Hollywood.
Musicians Institute - PIT - (Percussion Institute of Technology) - Thanks to Fred Dinkens (mentor) and Ray Luzier (friend and instructor) for always believing in me and pushing me. Production Staff (former co-workers) - thanks to Chris Torrey(former production manager), Dave Lopez (engineer - taught me the ropes of live sound in/out of MI), Curtis Skelton (also vocal coach), and Paul Nelson (former production manager - granted me a lot of freedom). - RIT (Recording Institute of Technology) - Big thanks to Dallan Beck (Recorded my band Lambs Among Wolves), Orlando Rashid (recorded my band Clockwork's 2001 EP), and Mehdi Hassine.
Duck Ankles Studios - Vicki and Tim - you opened my eyes to a whole new world while recording the album for Tin Kitten in 1994. I learned a lot about how to prepare before recording, techniques I use today - you made me realize I wanted my own studio one day.
Richard (Brent) and Nancy Deverell - for their understanding and generosity to open their hearts, house, refrigerator, and pockets for practices and recording - for allowing me to use their equipment (Drums, percussion, 4 Track Recorder) to record my band Tin Kitten - those high school days were crucial to my development.
