BONUS CONTEST
Several years ago I was contacted by an Ottawa band called “The Joys” – they were looking to record a five song EP. Of course I accepted, but man I was nervous! Truth is, I’d never really produced anything for anyone else….just myself. This was my first real production gig!
A few weeks later the three piece band loaded into my tiny 10×10 foot apartment studio and we got to work. I was reasonably confident in my mix game, but had zero experience actually recording bands; luckily, they used a cajon (rather than a full drum kit) so I was able to accommodate them in my small space. To make a long story short, I pushed through the many obstacles presented to me by the band, and we eventually ended up with a charming little EP that still puts a smile on my face. While far from a “perfect production”, I still find myself tapping my toe along to this humble, stripped down folk/pop tune. I hope you enjoy this month’s bonus contest song!
Check out the full EP “ONLY ON WEEKENDS” on Spotify!
Song Info:
Bpm: 124, Sample Rate: 44.1 khz.
Can I use this song in my mixing portfolio?:
I’m afraid not. The band has asked that these multi tracks only be used for this contest. Please do not post your mix on Soundcloud, YouTube, etc….thanks!
