MASTERING TERROR TRACTOR's new studio album "KARATE DONKEY"! Recorded & mixed in their home town of Manhattan, KS at Schudio by the highly talented Jason Schumacher, "KARATE DONKEY", is as heavy of an experience as getting shredded in a combine!
TERROR TRACTOR was formed in September 2003. It is rumored that they were begat of Satan’s own rusty exhaust pipe. Combining the skills of the best local heavy acts, TERROR TRACTOR set about sowing the seeds of chaos. If you like metal, then you will love TERROR TRACTOR & their new studio album "KARATE DONKEY"!

MIXING + MASTERING SANITY IN DEATH full-length on Hammermill Records!
Hailing from the small Southwestern town of Tucson, Arizona, SANITY IN DEATH have come to breathe new life into the metal scene. With their unique blend of death metal, hardcore and the desolate Southwestern sound that can only come out of one of the hottest places on Earth, SANITY IN DEATH hit you like a ten-ton hammer falling from the top of the Sears Tower. Jaw-breaking vocals, finger-crushing guitar riffs, ear-rupturing bass lines and an unrelenting drum attack will surely ingrain SANITY IN DEATH into the pages of metal history! If you have been searching for an original sound in this over-saturated genre, search no further; SANITY IN DEATH are the real thing.

ABOUT LONE WOLF STUDIO & PRODUCTIONS:
Wisdom, Determination, Adaptability and Pride are the cornerstones and foundation of LONE WOLF STUDIO & PRODUCTIONS. Every second of every project is given the unique, individual attention that recorded music requires to shine and resonate through listeners' souls! Perfection & satisfaction is the ultimate goal and nothing is shipped without thorough examination to ensure that each project has been enhanced to its full potential! If your music does not have the power & soul to live on forever, then it is not a Lone Wolf Studio & Productions project - just like the spirit of the wolf, your music will posses the power to grab & evoke strong primitive emotions in your audience & stand the test of time (immortalized, respected & recognized as a great sounding recording) no matter where the industry or your career goes!
There is a wide spectrum and large scale recording quality and mixes, but it is not only a business, but a way a life and intense sense of pride that every project that leaves the Lone Wolf Studio & Production facility must be maximized and brought to peak audible form for the best overall presentation possible. Music is an extension of ones soul, an unparalleled expression & a way of life for artists & fans all over the world! As a musician and obsessive-perfectionist, owner, engineer & producer (Steve "Ash" Aschenbrenner) will see to it that the same amount of dedication, devotion and attention to detail goes into the mixing &/or mastering process as was put into the writing, sculpting and perfecting of the sonic works of art.
Ash has worked on material from some of the most widely renown and highly respected artists in the present day music scene and is now opening up shop to the world for mail-order mixing &/or mastering while the full tracking & recording studio is being designed and built on the outskirts of Lawrence, Kansas (near Clinton Lake). He graduated from Loyola Marymount University in Westchester, CA with a Bachelor of Recording Arts and has been applying his knowledge, passion and ear for aural extremes for the last four years on the side of his full-time gig as the Director Of Sales & Distribution @ Nuclear Blast America.
Being part of the Century Family for the past 6 years opened up the doors to some amazing opportunities and experiences to gain knowledge from some of the greatest extreme musicians & audio engineers in the world today. The wide array & long list of projects Ash has had the good fortune and pleasure of working on the past 3-4 years have added big-name artists (such as DIMMU BORGIR, CHILDREN OF BODOM, LACUNA COIL, IN FLAMES, SUFFOCATION, MESHUGGAH, GOD FORBID, SHADOWS FALL, MASTODON, HYPOCRISY, BLOODBATH, DYING FETUS, EXODUS, AMORPHIS, EDGUY, HAMMERFALL, SONATA ARCTICA, FIREBALL MINISTRY, NEBULA, BACKYARD BABIES, THE HELLACOPTERS to touch the tip of the ice-berg) to his resume and credentials. He applies all the feedback and experience gained from past projects to ever project he tirelessly works on. Sleep deprived, but fueled by an unquenchable thirst and hunger to make extreme bands sounds bigger and badder than ever before, Ash is looking forward to providing the bands and music he loves (from all over the world) with a final product they can be proud of, all the while helping everyone involved reach their goals + intended destinations.
Like a wolf in pursuit of prey, Ash is willing and determined to overcome every obstacle and treacherous mile that must be traveled to kill past and present day audio standards while elevating the quality and representation of the bands and music he passionately loves in short, to leave a lasting impact on all who dare to listen!
