Splendiferious By Brooklyn Rapper Chrominati Mixed and Mastered at Sturbridge Sound!

Admittedly, I myself am admittedly not what one would call a hip hop head. I really only know how to mix and master this stuff, so all of my knowledge of the genre comes directly from looking for audio references. However I certainly do have appreciation for outstanding lyricism wherever it comes from. And Brooklyn Rapper Chrominati is legitimately special.

The guy has got one heck of a vocabulary to begin with. And when the english language runs out of words, GnarlyNatti has no trouble just inventing new ones. You won't find profanity here, mostly because he doesn't seem to need it.  I could go on for hours about this, so I'll just let you listen.

So check this track out when you get the chance! This is the first of many songs that I'm excited to be working on for this artist, so when the full release is ready, you will see it here first!

The Knockouts have the Track of the Month!

So it's been a while since I've been able to work on this site. Unfortunately I've been really busy with school and whatnot. But I figured it would only be right to update the track of the month. 

This song is by my old band, The Knockouts. I played drums on this thing, and actually recorded it in my basement back before I had any clue of what I was doing. Which is another way of saying recorded horrendously.

I then mixed, mastered(Another way of saying pinned the master fader in Logic Express 7) and put this and two other tracks on the Internet 6 years ago. Fortunately, thanks to the supreme talents of songwriter Lew Bibler, the actual songs were(and still are) so good that nobody really cared how bad they sounded. This song, 'What I've Done' was actually kind of popular when I showed it off to various people my freshmen year at Quinnipiac University.

So 4ish years later, I was looking for new projects to work on and started to go through my old project file folder. And there they were, just as I'd left them. So I spent the next few days remixing and remastering them without any intention of showing them to anyone. But now that I knew what I was doing, they actually came out really well, especially considering the quality of the actual recordings.

So anyway, check this out.

And shoutout to the rest of The Knockouts!
