Curves Ahead-Rippingtons

While we work on our new web site in anticipation of the first CD release I have replaced a number of our previously avilable sound clips with a few things below. We were still finalizing the new studio and installing new gear for the fianl recording of the songs written so far. In the mean time I could not resist getting in Skippy's studio to work on my drum sounds and get an idea of where my sound was coming from. I have tried numerous mic's and still revert back to the Sure sm98,Beta 52, and 57s for the kit. I like Skip's overheads as the cymbals sound fantastic in a basic mix like those of the sequences below.The following demonstrations of various grooves were played along with  sequences from a Yamaha DTXtreme module and  were posted for Roine Stolt of The Flower Kings. He was considering me for the latest TFK CD. Ultimately geographic considerations prevailed and working between Sweden and Central Illinois did  not make sense....but I do love TFK and Roine Stolt's music. Thanks Roine! Check them out. These were single pass takes from a session at Ric Major's studio.

Talk To-Go Figure ( Brian Cutright)

I've had the pleasure of working with some very talented people in the area. This tune is from one of Brian Cutright's projects Kevin Ellis and I worked on a few years back. Brian is a Springfield area singer/songwriter and  has written some great tunes over the years . His current project, The Oohs, has been met with much critical acclaim. The clip here is from the Go Figure project and was recorded live by Ric Major  at the Atrium . The song is called Talk To.
