State of the Studio #7: March '08

There will be a lot of fresh, new material hitting the blog this month. Here is a summary of changes to some of the regular features.
  • Album of the Week - This is the longest-running weekly feature of the blog and it will still be here for quite some time. But later this month we shift into "Vintage" phase where there will be albums highlighted that were not really "albums", just tapes with collections of songs on them. And the first round of "Vintage" albums will be from Jason's early keyboard years.

  • Musician Profile - This Wednesday feature will soon be replaced by one called Equipment File. This will showcase an instrument or piece of recording gear the Studio currently uses or has used in the past.

  • Studio Chapter - This will be the new Monday feature and will start at the beginning of the Studio's history (before it even had a name) and each week will explain the next version of the Studio as it was rebuilt so many times.

There have been issues with my file hosting site lately. They seem to be unavailable much of the time, which means all links to songs, videos, or publications temporarily go down. Unless I decide to find another host we will have to put up with this inconvenience until they get their act together and can provide stable service again.

As far as projects go, ORC will be an ongoing project now. There will be ocassional updates telling the progress of the album but it will be a while before the album is released. And there is another recording session of Paige planned for this month. This will lead up to the release of her second album this fall.

It's going to be a busy month here at the Studio, but it should be another fun one.
