SussJam @ AudioHipster Studio [Loganville, GA; 07/18/09]
Re: My accolades to a Great Family and Friends: The Keatons at AudioHipster, Inc.!
It’s rare when technology combines with personal attention to camaraderie and detail. With correct balance, and societal/cultural motivations, the results are not just hoped for: they become a reality. Such has been my experience over the years with AudioHipster, Inc., and with Doyen and ..Carla Keaton.. in particular [....Loganville.., ..GA....]. The man has Ears likened to the eyes of an Eagle. His/their hearts are bigger than Life!
It was a day after my birthday when my standing invitation to show up arrived. I already knew what to expect. I was met with appetizers and the promise for what would be a splendid grilled meal later in the day. Carla is a “wiz” in the kitchen; as well as quite the business-woman.
So there I was: aside the pool improving upon my natural-born tan...,
...and imbibing some of the best beverage found anywhere on the Planet. Now mind you… imbibing is not meant to suggest that I, or anyone else, lost control. I was just enjoying myself after a hard week’s work. Please understand my sharing… only those with ears/heart to hear/receive will benefit! My principle in Life has been to increase capacity, rather than be shut off and xenophobic. Such requires more than one color to fill a palette, let alone the textures to render to canvass. Likewise, it takes more than one box to define the Universe.
Below I offer the full link to a slate that I put down to hard drive [the analog tape drive ran out before I finished]. Doyen’s encouragement was to think of something very dear to me. In my view was the freedom and liberty anyone anywhere seeks. My brush was the drum kit with the colors of the full visible and audio spectrum in mind. There is just too much out there for anyone to disregard the relationships we have among proven friends and professionals.
I highly recommend AudioHipster, Inc. [..Loganville.., ..GA../....USA....] for the expertise that personal attention is given to detail and recording criteria. In other words, Doyen is the engineer that has slated the absolute BEST drum sound in my over 36 years of appearing on mainstream and commercial releases in the music industry. I do not make this statement lightly. Hear for yourself [oh, BTW: that’s Doyen jamming on the guitar with me after the iron-oxide [Fe2O3] ran out. By then, we were just eeking our way through the rhytmic possibilities, without any emphasis being placed on technicalities.

I just love the combination of tom tones with cymbal emphases as I approached a variety of grooves in my typically regarded lyrical fashion. The microphone array, coupled with a plate reverb on a well-tuned kit brought out every nuance. Needless to say, I had FUN that day… and still having it TODAY.
My prayer with purpose is that others reading this take it to heart… just don’t have a great day – MAKE IT A ONE UNIQUE for YOURSELF and those within your reach.
I thank you both: Doyen & ..Carla Keaton..!
With Much Agape Love & Appreciation!
