It’s been a few weeks since I’ve checked in!
So far the summer has been fantastic. Lots of great music being written and produced in many areas:-) I’ve also been much more proactive with getting out of the studio and both meeting new wonderful people as well as catching up with old friends and clients.

A few stand outs over the past week were Tuesdays great Tame Impala show at Prospect Park in Brooklyn. By far one of my favorite bands! Got to see them twice on this tour and they sounded perfect and the weather was as good as it gets for an outside concert…

I attended 2 days of Sync Summit here in Manhattan this week as well. Lots of great people doing wonderful things for music for picture, licensing and advertising. Lots of heavyweight music supervisors as well as publishers and writers as well. I got to catch up with some agency music producers and publishers and learned quite a bit a long the way. Looking forward to working with some of the new folks I met and generally really pleased with the overall positivity of the industry moving ahead!

I also got news that the film Sugar! starring Tony winner Alice Ripleywill that I did some engineering on and Steve O’Reilly wrote the music for will be premiering at the Long Island International Film Expo on July 20th which should be fun!

Lastly I got to catch up with some old friends and two of the greatest drummers around last night as we attended the Seth Meyers show and watched Johnny Tempesta as guest drummer. He was amazing as always and we had a lot of fun afterwards:-) Johnny was sitting in with the band all week as The Cult just wrapped some dates on tour with Guns and Roses. Good stuff!

Have a great weekend. Weather looks sweet!
