as i come up for air here (man has it been busy in the studio)...
i wanted to let all know that john scrip of massive mastering got the nod for the velvet truckstop mastering job. the band and i could not be more pleased...out of the dozen or so 'trial masters' received in a timely manner, his was the one that initially 'took it easy' on the material. it's louder for sure, but not -7db/-6db range. i wish that time had allowed for me to work more closely with many of you on a second run-through.
this forum is peopled with top notch folks..seasoned pros to boot. thanks again to all who gave it a shot.
i have gotten a few other requests to do submit sample files for mastering, and i thought i'd try to save everyone the time and trouble since i understand how valuable my own time is...
the velvet truckstop album, "sweet release" is now in release and is getting solid reviews as it begins to make its way on to radio and in the consuming public's hands.
for more, feel free to visit the band at their website:

again, thanks to all of you who freely gave of your time and talent to pursue this work. it is greatly appreciated.
best,
