I have devoted the past week or so to getting myself familiar with the upcoming Rock Band Network. RBN is still in beta, and not open to the public, but I am already comfortable with the developing process. Here’s a sample for a track I authored for Buffalo Gun.
Buffalo Gun – Expert – Rock Band Network from Stephen Shapiro on Vimeo.
This week I finished up mixing and mastering Before You Exit’s debut album A Short Story Long. The final product is a very strong first release for any band, but especially for a band so young. The album will be released on August 22 at the band’s Hard Rock Live performance.
Buffalo Gun is still in the tracking process for The Bad. Drums and bass are complete and guitar is well on the way. At this point, it’s looking like a September release.
Also, 360ed has released a demo of Conspiracy Code for PC. This is an educational game I scored with David Burleson of Poverty Branch.
For the past two weeks or so, I’ve been working on some instrumental production music . I’m putting them up on lots of different sites, but you can check them out at my AudioJungle portfolio here: http://audiojungle.net/user/randomgong/portfolio.
Just a quick update of some studio projects I’ve been working on.
I’m still working on an untitled release for Alexander. His first release of 2009, Concrete And Steeples should be out soon.
I have started tracking for the second Buffalo Gun album, The Bad, which will be another 5-song EP.
I am producing/engineering/programming a score written by Jason Gaskin, singer from Lonely Heroes, for a short film project. I will link a copy to the video when it’s complete.
Thanks for reading!
