If you'd like production on your tracks, we'll work something out. Every project is different.
Standard Studio Etiquette:
Come prepared. New strings on your bass and guitars. Have your songs fully practiced so you don't waste time in the studio; time will buildup quickly that way. Vocalists: If you want your voice to sound the best, don't drink anything that will get in the way of that. (IE alcohol, soda, milk, tangy juices or anything with caffeine)
Bring any equipment you need that is not listed on this site. If you love your drum sound, I'd be more than happy to record your kit instead of mine. DO NOT bring your kit if it hasn't been taken care of and has old drum heads on it. This is not a good equation for a decent drum sound.
