We’re huge fans of the recording/engineering blog SonicScoop, so it’s a real honor to be featured on their site. “Is this innovative studio the new king of NYC drum rooms? Our latest ‘Sweet Spot’ is a strong contender,” says SonicScoop. Take a peek at our massive wall of drums, too (and that’s only a fraction of the collection)!

In a distant land long ago, our resident session drummer Dylan Wissing graduated with a degree in French from Indiana University. Old worlds are now colliding with new: it’s Dylan’s first appearance in Batterie Magazine from France! The translation, helpfully provided by the article’s author Patrick Buchmann:
Alicia Keys’s newest album has an impressive number of producers, arrangers and programmers. Only Dylan Wissing plays live drums on « Girl On Fire » which seemed programmed though. It’s just the other way around here for ‘When it’s all over’ : sounds pretty much like the real drums were played but they were programmed with ‘maestria!’
Dig the transcription to Alicia Keys’ song “When It’s All Over” – a completely programmed part, but it sounds amazing (and fooled Patrick and I into thinking it was tracked live by some badass jazz drummer). Vive la France!
