Here it is folks, another production from cmac. My good friends/colleagues Masahiro Yamamoto, Alex Wyatt, Greg Ruggiero and Ryoichi Zakota called me up the other day and asked if I would help them make an album before they went on tour. Of course I said yes, but under the time constraints we were under (everything had to be recorded, mixed, mastered and duplicated in 7 days!!) it was a busy week to say the least. I am quite pleased with the results, and I am proud to say I have produced this album. It sounds really great, the playing is excellent and the overall vibe is really positive. To me, that is the most important.
*special thank you to Dan Porter for his invaluable mixing & mastering ears, and for being a crucial part of my post-production chain!
