Sound Sluts 

 

In the past two years I've been working with my friend and colleague @riyske on location (film shooting, documentaries, commercials) and at studio (sound design and mixing). We get along well and enjoy working together. So, we've made a decision to unite and become Sound-Sluts. 

 

Hello, we are Sound-Sluts and we are working with sound at all stages of production in cinema, documentaries and commercials. Here is a list of some our works:

Big update and Catch The Crackle - The Raw Tape [Lo-fi Ambient Tape Album] 

Music should no longer depend on corporations. Fans can help musicians do what they love directly. The community is tired of the monopoly of major labels, idiotic copyright laws and a system of distribution of funds under which only "a select few" can really exist. The rest have to earn money some other ways. Therefore within the CatchTheRecord ecosystem the "Sound Family DAO" is being created.

This is a label of experimental, modern classical and acoustic music. Also a community of sound professionals from different spheres. We don't providing a publications on streaming services what killed the future of musicians to receive income from listening to their music. Our label offers artists income only through direct interaction between fans and the artist in crypto world - still the last stronghold of freedom and common sense (that's why there is so much scam in it now). But regulators are coming...
Also it will be released a special application where people can listen the music of our artists and earn native ecosystem tokens. The label takes 10% of collected from NFT-services funds. All this is written in a smart contract and is visible to everyone. Every cent. Crypto is now frankly at the bottom - the best time to develop and create projects. Which is exactly what we do.

So, today we has an awesome news for you! "Sound Family DAO" made a 1st official release: [Catch The Crackle - The Raw Tape]. It is a 3-rd studio full-length album from this artist. Long ambient/downtempo lo-fi story about what is happening around us now. The album consists of melodies and rhythms created with the help of a cassette tape recorder and other sources passed through it. Also in the music are author's field recordings as a sound effects, atmospheres and samples of military conversations from the chronicles. 


For this event, we are releasing a special fan-nft collection on the Solana network consisting of 60 arts made with help of a neural network. Pictures can be minted for our native ecosystem token $SREC (Sound Recording Coin) which is being actively airdropped now and everyone can essentially get these fan arts for free (not counting the commission in the Solana network).

New antique piano improvisations album recording  

We started recording new piano album for Nadia Gourskaya. She played beautiful improvisations. It will be a meditative soft piano playings with great emotions and cozy atmospheric piano sound with crisp authentic mechanics. 
I used 4 microphones:
Main LR mics where Schoeps CMC6 mk2h matched stereo pair straight left and right on the piano. These mic connected to antelope audio orion studio 2017 preamps with tube V76 emulations and Pultec VEQ High Pass filters.
Also I used separate central channel for best stereo image and fullness with Rode NTR ribbon mic wired to Grace Design M201 Preamp, also used Pultec filters for low freq. and V76 emulation. During all recording I changed "warmth" level of saturation for central channel for various parts depending on dynamics of composition. 
And 4th channel was Mono Room AEA N8 microphone wired in 2nd channel of Grace Design M201 with BA-31 germanium preamp emulation and Pultec HPF in antelope card. 
Piano - Lipp, Richard & Sohn antique piano from Germany.
