Memories!
My internship here at HighBreedMusic and The Breeding Ground NYC is slowly coming to a close. I have been working on my portfolio and it brings a smile on my face when I go through all my memories here. The bands I’ve worked with are some of the most incredible musicians I have ever met, and the connections I have made will last me a lifetime. I have learned so much about audio production and how many different aspects there are to being an audio engineer. All in all, as Arnold says “I WILL BE BACK!” = )

Full Crate & Mar
Yesterday, we got to hang out with Amsterdam artists Full Crate & Mar as they had their live recording at The Breeding Ground. These guys man…they were a lot of fun to be around. Patient through the setup, hilarious during soundcheck, Full Crate and Mar were totally cool to work with.
Then it was show time, and just as soon as I left the stage…pow! Mind you, I was there through a bunch of the soundcheck, and I was still blown away by the music. So was everyone lucky enough to be in the audience. My highlight of the night: Mar’s acoustic version of “I Said.” People hate when you OMG…but OMG. :-D
I can’t wait for the audio team to start mixing! I look forward to the songs being stuck in my head for weeks.
Tonight: Mar is headed to DC, so if you’re in the NOVA area definitely check him out. If you’re in NYC, check out Full Crate at The Bedford.

Full Crate & Mar
I love the fact that the shows are always different from each other! Yesterday we had the pleasure to assist to a show very unique: two cute boys who came from Holland to make us discover their Dutch conception of music…
One is a talented DJ and the other one an incredible singer: so both of them form a great duo, that’s why I immortalized this magic moment by taking a picture with the two of them!
Sorry girls, HA HA HA!

Full Crate and Mar!
Crazyy show last night, had the chillest vibes in Brooklyn! Full Crate blew me away with his beats and Mar defiantly moved me with his melodies. All in all, a fantastic night! Even had a chance to sing with Mar!

Play on my mood swings!
Today has been a little hectic already…but in a good way.
We’re preparing for a recording session tonight with artists from Amsterdam…it’s going to be awesome! We’ve been looking forward to this for months. Just goes to show, no one is beyond your reach if you put in the time and effort necessary to cultivate a relationship.
So now, back to the set up.
