Whenever a singer leaves a band, it's a huge shock to the existing lineup. The sound is bound to change and fans are bound to have strong reactions. It's very difficult to convince everybody to get on board with a new vocalist. The best rock and metal replacement singers are a reflection not only of the singer but also of the cohesiveness and leadership of the band at that time.  In #bestmetalsingers #bestreplacementmetalsinger #bestreplacementrocksinger #bestrockandmetalreplacementsingers #bestrockandmetalsingers #bestrocksingers

Recently, I have rediscovered the greatness of singer Randy Travis. One of his lesser known songs, sung with Kris Kristofferson, is "Walk Our Own Road" and I believe it is worth listening to the words when you have a moment... I would say it this way, "find YOUR road, and DRIVE!" Figure out how to simplify, FOCUS, change, and GO! Have a GREAT day! 😎 #drivenchangetodayTM #simplifyFOCUSchange #ownyourtime #dct360changesystem

This was an especially fun video to create for Millibar Robotics, posted last week on the 60th anniversary of the Beatles breakthrough performance on the Ed Sullivan Show. Editing together video and various sound sources reminds me of playing an organ, constantly adjusting the sound between phrases. I find myself using the same rules I used as an accompanist, supporting and enhancing melody, never over-powering. Leave a place for the singer, and the listener, to breathe and process. Create a certain energy level, and use it to pull the viewer/listener through the piece. Wonderful to engage some of that old muscle memory in a different medium. #automationindustry #create

So much goes into a recording project. Not only music, but lots of other things have to be researched, chosen, approved. Like photos, for example. This one, by Antonio Di Maggio, made definitely the cut. #cd #recordingsession #recordingproject #animaitalia
