Turn the lights on, open the window. Get the room some fresh air before the musicians come. You have an hour to prepare: Make them feel comfortable. And when they play you wonder « what’s you’re doing there? » When they fail in anger, you’d like to keep the take. You think it’s wonders, you envy their gift. There is the hot smell from that coffee you prepare. You hear the computer booting once again. The microphone stands need to be set. You can’t be late, it must be perfect. Because you know If you’re not good, it could be awful what they make. And when they play you wonder « what’s you’re doing there? » You’d like to tell them it’s wonders they create! But you don’t have the time. And you’re the one who says: “No it’s not the one, we have to do it once again.” Some of them are anxious, and need to be calmed down. They are asking you, and you pretend you know. Guide them inside their own universe It's you reversed your feeling inferior. Some may see through you and feel disappointed cause You are not the artist but just the audience. You don’t pretend to being anything else! It’s what you are doing, you’re only recording. Everyone has gone and left you all alone. It’s time to burn the rom, to back- up what they’ve done. There is still a fog, but no one is smoking. Slowly, cause you’re done, unplug the microphones. The mess to be tied- up will wait for tomorrow. Cause it’s quiet at this moment and you’re listening alone In the morning sun, through the monitoring, The little that you’ve done: what you’ve been recording.

Every Day 03:39
Everyday, I will sing everyday If it’s worth anything If it could change the way you feel. So many smiles. So many hands I shake and even jokes I make while inside I feel useless. Because there is no way I could ever change your mind, About our future and our past, about You’ll find yourself at last. Everyday, I will sing everyday If it’s worth anything If it could change the way you feel. To make it easier, I first kept silent and tender, and you felt better, for a while, but only for a while. Then I just changed my mind and left you no more choice to be made, been almost violent! Both ways I brought some more pain. chorus In the beginning I was just standing by your side quietly waiting. I used to imagine it would be easy: That you’d feel safer with me there. That you would ask me to… When you are ready to… Well, it wasn’t that clear. I left my dark sides out of sight. I kept emergencies untold. And during weeks, obviously a silence between us, it became louder, it became louder. Everyday, I will sing everyday If it’s worth anything If it’s not some more pain I bring… I will sing everyday.

about

With this first “Recorder Blues” Let me share with you a bit of my life, at the time I was running studios: I was feeling unsatisfied in my everyday job as an audio engineer.
So I started producing my own music. I needed to assume an artistic calling even if that meant I had to restart from scratch...


Have a 25 minutes trip with me, from one side of the mixing desktop to the other!
