Update #34: Charmaine came in today!!!

Posted on January 29, 2010

At long last Charmaine Neville made it in to sing on a couple of Electronola tunes, and it was well worth the wait. She really did a fantastic job. I'm feeling great about today's session. Can't wait to let people hear a sample. I'll be editing over the next couple of days, and I hope to have audio clips up sometime this weekend.

Total tangent - a fun added bonus for me today was finding out that Charmaine plays Go, an ancient strategy game that I'm fond of.

I sculpt data that scrambles electrons that excite magnets that move speakers that ripple the air that tickles your eardrum that tantalizes your brain that shakes your bum. Simply put, I'm a music producer and recording engineer. I do a lot of work with some of New Orleans' favorite acts, including Preservation Hall & the New Orleans Bingo! show.

Among the more famous artists I've recorded are Tom Waits, Pete Seeger, Del McCoury, Lenny Kravitz, Jim James, Paolo Nutini, Mos Def, and Buddy Miller. I've also done independent recordings for local greats like Shannon Powell, Tom McDermott, Luke Winslow-King, Meschiya Lake, & Kristin Diable.

In addition to my studio engineering, I produce and perform electronic music as The Madd Wikkid, and have been known to play piano/keyboards around New Orleans and Japan. I also sometimes tour as a live sound engineer.
