Studio Blog: Sleigh Ride in Bora Bora

After hearing numerous mediocre and well worn out Christmas tunes around the holiday, we decided it was time to create something new and fresh. It was time for a sleigh ride…in Bora Bora!

We recently had the pleasure of recording a new holiday song written by our friends Melissa Axel and James Jacoby. Melissa sang, James rocked the tuba, and they were joined by some amazing musicians at the session:

Scott Aller – Drums/Percussion

Aaron Johnson (Ukulele Loki) – Ukulele

Aaron Keim – Weissenborn

Kailin Yong – Violin and Piano

We had a blast recording this tune – make sure you check out the video!  We’ll be mixing this soon so be on the lookout for the finished version…

What About Pluto?: In The Studio – Day 1

Recently, we started tracking a new EP project with a great new up-and-coming band called What About Pluto.  The guys in the band are really cool – and have really killer songs that we feel are going to turn out great! We feel that this band is a perfect fit for us. We’re really into their sound, and their musical direction is right in tune with what we like to do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We tracked basics in Studio 6 at Immersive to get the drum sounds we need.  Starting early last Saturday morning, we got everything all set up and ready to go – and got rocking around noon.  Eric the drummer is a killer player, and it was our time to work him really hard to get the best possible takes.

What About Pluto?: In The Studio – Day 2

The band played really well together, and really helped bring the energy to get the bass and drum tracks really solid and tight.  The overall vibe was really great – and we look forward to building these songs into something cool.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next up we’ll get started on guitars, probably in the second or third week of November.  We are really pumped to use some of our new gear and mix and match the sounds to get it just right.  We’ll definitely keep you posted once we get back into the studio with the WAP guys.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Until Next Time…

New site coming soon…

Thanks for stopping by! We’ve actually decided to try something new and fresh with our site, so the old Hook Factory site is down. For now. We’ll miss it too. But give us a few, and we’ll be back with something cooler, more fun, and more exciting. -Justin and Dave
