The Flophouse Sessions 104 – The Blank Tapes
01/08/2008 Duración: 40minYou’d be forgiven for thinking The Blank Tapes were a band. Really, it’s just Matt Adams, multi-instrumentalist and incredible songwriter. When he plays live, he usually brings along friends, but the albums are all Matt. And all brilliant. He stopped by during a solo tour, but we got him to accompany himself through the magic […]

The Flophouse Sessions 100 – The Half Nelsons
11/04/2008Wow, episode 100. That’s a lot. OK, enough fanfare. The Half Nelsons came in about a year ago, totally rocked the mini-kit, and promptly broke up mere weeks later. So here’s a posthumous release to let you know what you missed. I’m sure we’ll be hearing some great new projects from these talented chaps. Also, […]

The Flophouse Sessions 97 – Aberdeen City
04/04/2008Every once in a while, we have a band in that makes me want to greatly expand my limited knowledge of recording and mixing. Aberdeen City is just that kind of band. I tried some new techniques out, and dammit, I think it worked out well. It always helps when you have an awesome bunch […]
