Full album via DIY gear

[Potato Cakes]

Hello,

Last year I was working on producing a full album where the entire process was recorded, mixed, and mastered on gear that I had built. Aside from one dynamic processor and a handful of microphones, all of the songs were made with audio circuits that I came across on this site. It was finished and then vinyl was pressed. After the LPs were received, the artist released the first single off of the record:




All of the guitar amplifiers and some of the pedals used on this track were built by myself as well. Now that this is finally available to share, hopefully I can start working on more records (which is what I have been trying to do full time for about 6 years now).

Thanks!

Paul

Sounds great, congrats Paul! It's a lovely feeling to produce music with gear you've built. Do you have any pics from the sessions?

Somewhere someone took some. I am usually busy working on the record to be able to take time and work on social media. Usually the label send the interns to do that or with bigger artists you always have a crew that are filming which are usually in the way of getting the actual music recorded. But that is for fancy budget albums.

Thanks!

Paul

Pulled some photos off of the band's instagram of the recording process. Enjoy.
