Yesterday I posted a couple personal thoughts in regards to the release of the new Wes Sp8 EP, Three Song Thing. But I thought since this is a blog primarily about producing, recording, and mixing (a topic I have not actually posted on in a while), I should also share some notes about the recording process.

Recently Wes emailed me asking about what I could remember from the recording process-specifically what gear I used. A week ago Wes published a post on his blog that included my response to that email.

Yesterday, over at Radical Notion (independent media), we finally released another project from my production catalog-the Wes Sp8 Three Song Thing. I say finally, because it’s a project that we started a really long time ago. It got put on the back-burner for a little while, but thankfully it didn’t die there.

I’m very happy with the way this new release from Wes Sp8 turned out, and very excited to share it with you. As I listen back to what we all created, I know with total confidence that we achieved exactly what we were aiming for.

Sharing the finished product of a release is one of the biggest satisfactions I get out of doing all this. And although Wes Sp8 is no longer an artist that we officially manage at Radical Notion (independent media), I’m thrilled that we still get to be a part of making and releasing some of his recordings.

So please take a short moment out of your day to listen through Three Song Thing via the widget below. And if you like it, please share by grabbing the embed or link code, and posting around!

Thanks Wes for being persistent, pushing me to stay with this project, and fighting for your music (as all great artists should do). Cheers to everyone who is/was involved, and congratulations on making another great one!
