Summer Update
Posted by Rich on Thursday, August 31, 2006
Hi all,
My site was down for a bit as a result of a duluge of hits to my site via a number of Rush fan sites. There seems to be the notion that I am confirmed to record and/or mix a new Rush CD (!?) Where do these rumors start?! Please ease up on the repeated hits a bit, k? Thanks.
Now, moving on ....
Canadians all know the ubiquitous Trailer Park Boys, Finally, a movie is in the works. Al Lifeson of Rush fame produced an amazing version of 'I Fought The Law', which I had the opportunity of recording and mixing. The track features Al and Geddy, Adam from Three Days Grace, ex- Tea Party Jeff Burrows, Ian Thornley and a young promising talent from Die Mannequin named Care -- she really tore up her parts in the vocal track. Also, Bubbles was in the studio to record an absolutely hilarious track called 'Liquor & Whores'.

As well, I was out in Chicago recently, recording with Atlantic's Skillet. Great people and great talent, we crammed loads of heavy sonics and fun in to a short time. The recording was done at Rax Trax in Chicago and the tracks were brought back to Mixland for mixing. Skillet's Comatose CD drops October 3. For more information, go to www.skillet.com.
Dream Theater's James Labrie dropped by to lay down a vocal track for John Macaluso's solo project currently in the works. Keep an eye on James' website for updates. Dream Theater's Score DVD should be in stores now. It smokes!
I've just finished mixing the followup CD for High Holy Days. This new CD slams hard, a solid progression from their first release on Roadrunner Records.
More news as it comes in ...
Be well.
