Hey everybody…So I know Jim has let the cat out of the bag that he’s going to be Mr. Photographer guy in his spare time, and Robby’s joining the business side of the music industry by managing Addison Road, and of course there’s Bart and his love for the good ol’ southern baptist hymnal.
Well for me, I’ve started trying to help out some newer indie bands. When we got started 14 years ago, we were lucky enough to have Jim in the band. For those of you who don’t know, Jim had a recording background when we started MM, so we got free studio time…if you can call daycare centers and abandoned houses studios, (yes our 1st few records were on a VERY tight budget.) Well not every band gets to start out with a Jim in their corner, so I’ve started trying to help other bands who are where we were in the beginning. Helping them record their songs so hopefully they can make the whole world sing. That being said, here’s a band I recently produced a few songs for. They’re from our own Greenville, TX. and they’re called The Cost.

you should help my band record and stuff. we just started we’re called Smalltown Story, but we’re pretty good. we have some fun songs. right now we’re trying to record with my cruddy laptop out of my office/apartment building(looks like an business office, but it’s actually an apartment) and it’s not working very well. help us, please.
where do you guys live at??? Recording with a laptop is actually not a bad way to make demos. that’s how MM makes demos when we get together to write songs. It’s actually better than a lot of the ways we got started recording.

we live in Hamlin, Tx, near Abilene, Tx. it’s probably about 5 or 6 hours from Greenville to the west.
yeah,we have some decent recordings, but nothing worth keeping most of the time. i only have this small recording box with a left/right channel so i can only record 2 tracks at a time.
What about the tecno band from KAZ?
