Counter Clockwise Music
So, you're a great songwriter, or singer, or band. You have that next great thing, but the costs to produce your masterpiece have left you simply daydreaming.
Counter Clockwise Music can help! We offer a fantastic studio, an accomplished producer, and a skilled engineer, at unheard of rates. The studio is located in Dearborn, Michigan, just outside Detroit, and is the home of countless hit recordings, going all the way back to the heyday of Motown.
If you think that Detroit is too far away for you, consider this: We have worked with artists that have come from as far away as Ireland, and saved money doing so, including their travel costs. Other clients visit us from the Chicago, and Pittsburgh areas,and have also found it to be more cost effective to travel to Detroit, than to use local, less accomplished, and more costly production services.
If you are in the Detroit area, and would like to make a live recording of a special gig at that hot venue, we are well equipped to help with our "Mobile Recording Unit". We make it easy, and affordable for you to have a great recording of your show, without adding to your burden of setting up your stage.
Home recording artists note: Those of you using Cakewalk, Cubase, Pro-Tools, etc..., are probably somewhat disappointed with your final results. You find that your mixes just don't stand up to commercial quality. The reason for that is simple: you are an artist, not an engineer. If your recording is clean, but the mix isn't sizzling the way it should, Counter Clockwise Music offers a mix only package, which we call "remote mixing". You upload your project files to us, we mix it professionally, and return to you CD quality wave files suitable for release.
If you are a solo act, or need more musicians for your recording, we can help there too! We offer professional level bass, drums, guitar, and keyboards. Backing vocals too!
We know that every project and artist is unique, and we treat every project as such. We can help you take that great idea, and turn it into a legitimate, professional quality record that you can be proud of, and more importantly sell, or use as your calling card to record labels, venues, etc...
Also, since as previously mentioned, all projects are unique, our rates are based specifically on your needs. Please contact us for more information, or to discuss your project and determine a rate and schedule.
Thanks!
