I Once Received A Cape

The Late '60s And The '70s, A Lot Of This Really Beautiful Equipment Was Being Made And Installed Into Studios Around The World And The Neve Boards Were Considered Like The Cadillacs Of Recording Consoles. They're These Really Big, Behemoth-looking Recording Desks; They Kind Of Look Like They're From The Enterprise In Star Trek Or Something Like That. They're Like A Grayish Color, Sort Of Like An Old Army Tank With Lots Of Knobs, And To Any Studio Geek Or Gear Enthusiast It's Like The Coolest Toy In The World.

I Was Ready To Quit Music. It Felt To Me Like Music Equalled Death.

Different Boards Do Different Things To The Sound That's Coming Through Them. An Old Neve Desk Does Embellish It In A Way That Makes It Sound Sort Of Bigger Or Warmer. It Doesn't Change The Performance But It Does Enhance The Way That It Sounds.

Sharing Music Is Not A Crime. It Shouldn't Be. There Should Be A Deeper Meaning To Making Music Than Just Selling Downloads.
