Regressions (album)
''Regressions'' is the first studio album by Cleric, released on April 27, 2010, by Web of Mimicry. Recording Cleric recorded ''Regressions'' in Queens, New York, with the producer Colin Marston. The music was recorded at The Thousand Caves, Marston's studio, and put guitar, drums, and bass guitar simultaneously on reel-to-reel tape. In contrast to the rest of the album, the music that "The Fiberglass Cheesecake" comprises was assembled in the studio rather than performed, making it difficult to reproduce in a live setting. In crafting the track, the band used a sound replacer, recording the drummer, Larry Kwartowitz, using his hands to play a part on his lap and then replacing the sounds of his hands with drums. Marston commented on the album's recording process in an interview with ''American Aftermath'': "''Regressions'' by Cleric took waaaaaay longer than any other record I’ve ever worked on. It's also probably the most dense in terms of the sheer number and complexity of l ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Alto Saxophone
The alto saxophone is a member of the saxophone family of woodwind instruments. Saxophones were invented by Belgian instrument designer Adolphe Sax in the 1840s and patented in 1846. The alto saxophone is pitched in E, smaller than the B tenor but larger than the B soprano. It is the most common saxophone and is used in popular music, concert bands, chamber music, solo repertoire, military bands, marching bands, pep bands, and jazz (such as big bands, jazz combos, swing music). The alto saxophone had a prominent role in the development of jazz. Influential jazz musicians who made significant contributions include Don Redman, Jimmy Dorsey, Johnny Hodges, Benny Carter, Charlie Parker, Sonny Stitt, Lee Konitz, Jackie McLean, Phil Woods, Art Pepper, Paul Desmond, and Cannonball Adderley. Although the role of the alto saxophone in classical music has been limited, influential performers include Marcel Mule, Sigurd Raschèr, Jean-Marie Londeix, Eugene Roussea ...

Audio Mastering
Mastering, a form of audio post production, is the process of preparing and transferring recorded audio from a source containing the final mix to a data storage device (the master), the source from which all copies will be produced (via methods such as pressing, duplication or replication). In recent years digital masters have become usual, although analog masters—such as audio tapes—are still being used by the manufacturing industry, particularly by a few engineers who specialize in analog mastering. Mastering requires critical listening; however, software tools exist to facilitate the process. Results depend upon the intent of the engineer, the skills of the engineer, the accuracy of the speaker monitors, and the listening environment. Mastering engineers often apply equalization and dynamic range compression in order to optimize sound translation on all playback systems. It is standard practice to make a copy of a master recording—known as a safety copy—in case t ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
