Hey Cassie, i hardly ever speak/see you any more, but was just wondering if you had any tracks you wanted me to remix? x
Hey Cassie nice to see more music people from Dorset on here. Liked the song ideas, they definitly need professional recording, mixing mastering cause there's good songs just needing a little nudge and they'll make serious grounds. Your passion has nice vibe. Keep loving
Hey there - sorry I didn't reply sooner, I was out of the country and was only rocking dial-up internet, so Indaba was out of the question.
I'm glad you posted some tunes, very nice. What's holding you back from recording the vocals again? It sounds like you just need to take a little more time with them, record at lower levels as well.
I look forward to more, cheers!
Thanx for the love Cassie! But don't forget : Support is appreciated, but one (daily) vote is even better!

I need your help!
:) Cassie, I had a feeling your music was going to be fun to listen to! I love the craftmanship taking place within your art. The melodies overlapping between the guitars, bass guitar and the piano is really cool. Harmony is something I enjoy a lot and your voice along with your instrumentation make a fluid combination. Excellent lyrical story as well. Cassie, well worth the wait indeed. Thanks for sharing your sound and keep doing your thing.
Peace and Rock on,
Allan Blanks
Hey there... good to see you on the message boards. Post some tracks why don't you!
Cheers,
Oresti
Well I got my first studio placement from the message board at college. A recording studio will give you a great insight into the recording process as well as highlight the massive difference between recording and performing live. Many musicians sabotage their demos by insisting they sound like a live performance rather than a record.
Assisting visiting pros meant I was basically an interface for them into our studio. I'd guide them around the patchbay, gear etc often patching outboard in while the where getting on with other work. I would also clean, demag, line up and bias the machines before they arrived so you can imagine how long ago this was. You really pick up amazing stuff of guest engineers. I first discovered the 'nuke mode' on 1176's from guests and the absolute professional way to clean fag ash off a board without getting any in the faders.
As smaller studios are going down it must be getting harder for people like you to get their foot in the door. Also expect very long hours so you can't really double this up with studying unless you just want to be a part time coffee girl.
It's hard work and often with no or little pay, that's why I moved into broadcast. If you are a musician I'd concentrate on that and leave the desk to us geeks, though studio experience will definately help you, especially if you are looking at doing session work
Ah, you're from the UK too? Well I studied at Alchemea in Islington, London. Everything else I picked up working. Assisting pro engineers that came in where a wealth of knowledge while I was a n00b.
And bestest tip of all, make crap coffee ;)
thanks for the tip cassie ;) i went through n found an old blanket and started using it, bit stuffy in there lmao but hey it works
