About Me

I am a producer, audio engineer, songwriter, musician, vocalist. I have produced and recorded several regional acts. I have worked with Independent and major-label artists in many different genres from various forms of Rock to Rap and RnB. If you are serious about your music and want a quality recording and a polished final product then drop me a line or email with some info. I have my own studio, but I work as a producer/audio engineer at the Jam Room recording studio in Columbia, South Carolina as well. I'm also into videography and I use a Canon XL2 professional vidhttp://home.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user Homeeo camera. I offer services including: Enhanced, CDs, Live band recordings, Wedding Videography, Music Documentaries, Corporate Videos, and more! If you are interested in any of these services then drop me a line or send me an email with some info. I play, sing, and write songs for a band called Flashbulb Memories. (Alternative Rock) To find out more info about Flashbulb Memories or hear some audio clips you can visit www.myspace.com/flashbulbmemories. I also play with Justin Smith and the Folk-Hop Band. You can visit us at www.myspace.com/thefolkhopband ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------TESTIMONIALS: Les Hall (musician for Howie Day, Trey Anastasio, and Crossfade) comments on some of my producing and engineering work with Villanova...can't stop listening to some of the tracks...and i've only got the old roughs. Love it! I'm glad brian found someone to do it up right! Anyway, Excellent work my friend. I look forward to hearing the final product. you've got a great oversized EAR! keep in touch. X-les ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------Bob Katz is a professional recording, mixing and mastering engineer. Three of his recordings have won Grammy awards. He is also the author of the book "Mastering Audio the art and the science." Here's is what Bob Katz had to say about one of my mixes: "Dear Cory, I just listened to your mix and it sounds beautiful. I think it's definitely ready for mastering."After mastering The Villanova "Make Noise" album I sent to him he had even more complimentary remarks: "And the mix was top notch, A grade!" The master has come out very well, considering the level of Incubus that you wanted me to match as close as possible. It is punchy, fat, strong, wide and deep! I m excited for you all to hear it.The problem with matching Incubus is the [Incubus] album is so hot in level that their bass drum has been wimped out and the sound is clearly distorted on peaks. I was able to get Villanova in the same range, but maintain even more sonic integrity, thanks to your great mix."------------------------------------------------------- ---- "This is one of the best locally produced CDs I've ever heard." -Matt Lee Radio personality on Clear Channel's WARQ Rock 93.5 radio station speaking about Justin Smith's Sinner's Prayer album.

My Interests

Just about anything music. The recording studio is my work and playground. Yes, I am a Gearslut. I like creating, performing, producing, recording and enjoying MUSIC. I am also interested in learning more about what is going on with our World and Country. Other fun stuff... "Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary. (Cecil Beaton)"

I'd like to meet:

People who are looking to professionally record their musical projects, people interested in getting professional video services (enhanced CDs, DVD documentaries etc.), and just cool/nice people in general. Anyone who wants to chat about music or the creation of it. ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------- Put these codes below into your web browser to learn the truth about the Federal Reserve Banking System and why we should get rid of it.
