Recording

Starting in January the company will begin marketing into two endeavors. The first will be packages for live sound, live recording, and live videography aimed at providing services for college music majors who may need recordings or live sound reinforcement. This will also be marketed to school systems who may want their live concerts recorded. The second endeavor get into the world of artist promotion. Two artists have joined with GvG productions to help book and produce concerts in the Kalamazoo area. I am very excited about both these projects as I continue to shape the direction this company is going. Look for new ads to be posted in January!

New Stock Music

I have been spending the past couple of days building my stock music library. I have put two new stock recordings on the homepage in two very different styles. The first is a harder rock concept that I had been toying with over the past few months and I finally just laid it down and let it evolve. I suppose there are some influences from Rush in there with the whole-tone line and the meter changes, but I honestly hear the Switchfoot influence in it more. I also have to admit that at least one line in there was strongly influenced by The Red Hot Chili Peppers (I will let you guess which one!). The second tune on there is a much more minimalist ambience. It feels wintery to me... I guess the first snow of the season brought it out. I find it beautiful and relaxing... in my mind it goes behind something wintery and white. Gungor really played a big part in my thinking about this ambience concept. Overall I think Logic and my various instruments worked well together. Let me know what you think!
