I never really work on just one CD - I'm recording, recording.
I keep recording and recording, but they always stay on the rack and never get out there.
I don't really have any interest in recording at places that are institutionalized for recording.
I was working two landscaping jobs; I was recording songs in the spare bedroom. I would get up at 4 A.M., go to work, get back at 6 P.M., have nap, then start recording, just go until I fell asleep.
I think it's great that people now have access to Pro Tools and other recording software at home. I've never understood how anyone could be comfortable in a recording studio
Before that, an 8-bit recording was pixelated; it was really bad. It didn't serve what I was doing, which was recording live sound and delaying it and feeding it back. This is essentially what the EIS system is: a bunch of delays.
If you are recording, you are recording. I don't believe there is such a thing as a demo or a temporary vocal. The drama around even sitting in the car and singing into a tape recorder that's as big as your hand - waiting until it's very quiet, doing your thing, and then playing it back and hoping you like it - is the same basic anatomy as when you're in the recording studio, really. Sometimes it's better that way because some of the pressure is off and you can pretend it's throwaway.
The recording companies are continuing to look at ways to buy short and sell long. So now they give recording deals to groups of people who we refer to as 'garage bands' - they are amateurs who are bought for nothing and it's really a shame.
The recording process [ for 'Dirty Work'] took longer than anticipated, because we kept going on tour in between the recording process to make sure that we were still pleasing all the fans across the world.
In fact, it's in my interest to love digital recording, and I just spent a ton on a new digital recording system, so I speak from a place of heavy investment in both sides.
The act of recording requires you to look at and handle and touch things, so yes - art is more than just looking and recording. It's messy and time consuming and people might fall in love and get hurt.
People are so into digital recording now they forgot how easy analog recording can be.
When I first started recording music, I was actually singing about microphones, equipment, recording.
I am recording my first CD in Spanish and preparing myself for the next stage of my career.
Recording interviews is like magic. a) It stops you from taking notes in the middle and b) you can play that recording for people.
My recording career has luckily run the gamut of recording environments.
If you are recording, you are recording. I don't believe there is such a thing as a demo or a temporary vocal.
