Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
Sometimes it hits me: I’ve been running the project studio since 1990. 16 years!
It makes me think about how much things have changed.
When we first opened our studio, I had one keyboard, a keyboard amp, and an Atari 1040ST computer (with no hard drive, everything was on floppy disks, and I had to load the programs from floppy disks each day when I started work…). Tracks were done entirely in MIDI and were mixed to cassette. I couldn’t record vocals, so all I did were accompaniment tracks.
I had to take everything that came along in those days. I remember one client who had a great idea for a song. At least he thought it was a great idea. He wanted to mix Blues and Polka. Somehow, I managed to do it for him, but I don’t think it ever became a hit, at least not in this country.
