April 06, 2008 With my own eyes... ...I've seen a spare-time, bedroom, recording studio grow into a busy, full-time, music machine that crafts dreams into reality for vocalist/songwriters/poets/instrumentalist/percussionist of all types, looking to be treated as a professional. Have you ever watched someone's reaction to the seemingly impossible unfold in-front of their eyes? It happens everyday at Prime Cut Studio (PrimeCutStudio.com) as a result of an extraordinary vision of owner/operator Daniel Dennis. ...I've seen a frustrated, hardworking, vocalist of 8+ years go from spinning wheels to a plane taking flight after recently being presented with a record deal. Have you ever watched someone's swagger when they find a new love without boundaries? It's happening right now with with a friend rekindling a passion for the stage, musicianship, and audiences who haven't experienced his talent. (Check out Mason Douglas at MasonDouglasMusic.com) ...I've seen through these eyes a songwriter receive the best gift that could ever be given by another person, they sang it back to them. Have you ever been complimented, or given an award that that makes your chest stick-out with pride. Well thats the way I felt a couple of weeks ago when I heard an artist(Check out Lauren Rainey at www.myspace.com/laurenraineymusic) take a song I co-wrote(with Spencer Tenney) and perform it flawlessly, as if it was her own to a packed venue(The famed BlueBird Cafe to say the least). Take a look around, good things happen and you'll miss your/others best years in progress and future performances to come if you are not aware of your surroundings. 0 Comments Archives November 2004 March 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 August 2006 October 2006 April 2007 June 2007 July 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 Current Posts
