This is bloody mad. Over 1 million streams of @rolotomassiband new record ‘Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It’. Cheers to everyone who’s checked it out so far and for all the kind words!
Working from home a bit this week and wondering how much I can print through the Chorus Echo 🤔
@wearewallflower album one is done (for now) and I am super happy with how it is sounding so far! Very stoked for people to hear the results of our hard work 🎤🥁🎸🎧🎼
Yesterday in the latest episode of @wearewallflower LP1 we re-amped bass, recorded Rhodes through a Jazz Chorus, recorded an upright piano, some roto toms pitched to the songs, some extra guitars and made some weird samples. Today I will be mostly sleeping 😴
This week I’ve been working in our new studio build and it is absolutely bloody marvellous! Still not 100% there yet, but when it’s done it’s going to be the best the Ranch has sounded/functioned 🔥#recordingstudio #crystalskull #rock #riffs
Having a bloody fantastic time recording a new album for @wearewallflower So far we’ve used 3 snares in 4 different tunings and two different kits. Today we double tracked the main kit with this fun little number; A Sonor phonic 14x8 snare, mahogany kick tuned for maximum Bonham and way too much compression 🔥
@wnltl LP 2 all tracked. Such a lovely/intense few weeks working on this monstrous record and it’s turned into one of my favourites of recent times ❤️
Deep in the midst of @wnltl LP 2 and here I am showing Dave how to play South of Heaven.. maybe. Thanks @craigtaylorbroad for the great photo 🤙
Great to have @wnltl back in The Ranch to record album 2 over the next few weeks 🙌
@tidystudios is in this week recording some riff bangers. Using a lovely PRS Custom 22 through the newly serviced Badcat (more like good cat amirite?!) for the first side of rhythm guitars. Sounding righteous!
Always a pleasure recording @caseymchell He only smashed out 7 songs in about 5 hours. Well done mate 👍 @qdrumco kit sounding brilliant as ever.
Happy release day @svalbard !! Thanks for trusting me to record and mix your second album! Go check out ‘It’s Hard To Have Hope’ now 💪 #svalbard #holyroarrecords
Had the best time with @employedtoserve these past few weeks producing their third album. Congrats on writing what is easily your best record yet! Can’t wait to see where it takes them. #employedtoserve #employedtorockandfuckingroll 📷 by @danielwaverleygray obviously during one of my many incredibly funny moments
Been quiet on the insta updates recently, but only because we’ve been getting stuck in on the latest @employedtoserve album. So pumped with how this record is coming together so far!! 📷by @danielwaverleygray
Kerrang finally accepted I was due a Kerrang award and sent me the ‘most awesome dude’ award. I’d like to thank all my friends and fans, but most importantly, me for making this award possible.
Prophet into @strymonengineering Timeline & Big Sky aka the holy threesome 🙌
Lots of 500 series stuff getting a good look in on the latest @myonlyuk EP. @chandlerlimited Little Devils and @jhspedals Colour Box both sounding absolutely righteous on guitars, but my absolute fav is the Electrodyne 501 🙌
New desk and a re-wire? Sure thing. Absolutely loving the new setup in the Ranch now! Not 100% finished yet, but once it’s all working it’ll make recalling outboard 100000x easier 🤞
