Na Hoku Nominee

I just got word a few hours ago that Searider Productions Album "Searider Productions Presents... Jam Sessions" was nominated for a Na Hoku Award I believe for 2009. Unfortunately it's a year too late being that the album was released in 2008 through digital distribution.

Now why post about this? This was actually the first album I played a major roll in as the project coordinator/producer. Yes.. my past Job as Waianae High Schools Searider Productions Music Advisor. I loved the job and always look forward to going back home and working with these young and talented students.

Unfortunately, I moved away to Atlanta,GA right smack in the middle of doing the project, so pushing the project hard in hawaii wasn't so much a success. I did promise to release it so that is what happened.

Of course I do plan to go back and help out SP with building a state of the art recording and audio studio, but for now, I am needed out here in the south to do what I love... and expose myself to the musical world.

Here is in article of the album by John Berger: CLICK HERE

Logic Studio 2 Seminar

So I got back from Atlanta Pro Audio earlier tonight for a seminar again. Of course it was well worth going! We went over a bunch of new features in the recent release of Logic Studio 2. I have seen a lot of demo's on some of the features but tonight we got even more in depth with it. Some interesting things were of course their flex tool/flex time (for all you pro tools 7.4 and up users... similar to elastic audio). I loved the new features an Pro Tools since 7.4 and their elastic time and especially the new features and plug-ins when 8 arrived, but today once again, I am convinced that Logic Pro 9 is a lot better.

Their work interface is easier to understand in my opinion, the "flex" time features are wayyyyy wayyyy more accurate and more easier.

Having that said, I will be trying even harder to get comfortable with Logics Interface since I am more of a PT8 user. Don't get me wrong... Pro Tools good as well but you can't beat a $500 package of different programs with almost anything you need built in. You have that along with all the other plug-ins you have... the sky is the limit.

My next school project is to make a remix of a song using logic studio. So this is my chance to start getting comfortable and making the switch. This is all perfect timing being that I have been thinking about making a mixtape of remixes, and I've been thinking about getting more intense with Logic.

So off to my music I go... Be on the lookout for my remix for my class

Post A3C

So I've been trying to edit my video's from the A3C because I got some good footage. But I for some reason can't get the frame rates correct... I guess the frame rate on the camera I used were different. I'm determined to figure it out though so it WILL be up on my page soon...

But for now.. enjoy some pictures!

Conference call last night...

So last night I finally joined the futurstardjs which is cool! I finally listened in to a conference call and this one was with T-Pain. Got some good contact info on Pain as well as some other kats in the industry! Shout out to homie LNYCE for hooking all this up! Hopefully we'll meet at the studio next time! It is definitely a good spot for all us DJs to network and get music together...

T-Pain new album coming March... request the new single "Take Your Shirt Off" NOW
