August 2007 - OK, it looks like the updates for the last couple of months have been a bit light but we have been so snowed under recording new fetures and trying to keep up with the editing that the 'stuff' in the pipeline is huge, just that the features take some time to get on-line, mostly as we all have day jobs and this site is all created in spare time by industry people. Some of the upcoming features in the pipeline include legendary producer Kevin Shirley, Andy Gill and Steve Orchard.

Make sure that you are featured, it's free. Don't be shy!
December 2006 - If you have emailed us during December to arrange features etc please contact us again as we've had a major problem with emails :-(
December 2006 - Sorry for the lack of December updates, this is due to the RecordProduction Mac having a faulty hard drive so recovering everything and getting it all back to normal has taken a while.
In the background we have been shooting a number of great new features both in New York and London. In New York we filmed a series of great producer interviews at Fenix Studios (Staten Island) and these will be available in Jan 2007.
In London we shot interviews with people including KK and his feature is now live.

October
29th 2006 - Dear on line webmaster's diary reader, sorry
to not keep more news coming but we are busy scheduling video
features and editing new ones. More are due from Canada
soon following the massive interest in Mike
Fraser's video. We are waiting for another very
interesting feature to get through the edit suite that was
shot in Rome with a very well respected engineer and producer.
We
have been working through updating several areas of the site,
including working on improving the studio
equipment and shop - sorry if you hate any commercialism
but without it we couldn't be running broadband videos as
we are, ie, for free. We are also working on improving
the jobs area. Anyway, we have
re-streamed Danton
Supple's video interview and that's now substantially
better than the low speed modem version! We're away
shooting videos at the moment so there are lot's of exciting
new features coming soon.
Finally,
check out the production
magic event at London's Magic Circle featuring Phil Ramone
and Nile Rodgers.
October

Services and a whole host of talented people with some superb
backing music from Joe Satriani! Cool!
October
6th 2006 - Quite a few producer biogs updated including Richard
Rainey and studio features with new pictures added including Yellow Shark. Just

and want more exposure please get in touch so we can feature
you!
October
5th 2006 - Our copy of Resolution magazine arrived today. Great issue, if you don't currently

to sign up!
October
4th 2006 - A series of producer features and studio tours
recorded in Canada are coming very soon. Stay tuned for more
news but we can say that these are very exciting! Many thanks
to Mimi at Canadian Recording Services for her help in making
these possible!
October
3rd 2006 - We are very pleased to feature our latest video
- Mick Glossop. The feature
was shot at Townhouse Studios and we very much hope that Townhouse
finds a new buyer and is back in business soon, hopefully
this won't be the last Townhouse feature ever!
To
give Townhouse fans a little extra we took a series of photos
around the studios with Mick Glossop and these are linked
at the bottom of Mick's feature. We will add extra pictures
soon. We will also add extra pictures taken on producer features
shot at Townhouse on the
Townhouse page. Some new ones have been added already.

August
31st 2006 - We've moved servers - all done. If you've tried
emailing us and haven't heard back it's probably due to the
server move, so please try again! As we had the site spread
over two servers (big video files on one) it was getting messy.
The possible problem that you may have is that some links
may now be incorrect. Please let us know of any that you find!

26th 2006
WEBMASTER'S
REPORT
We've
overspent way too much on production recently so are having
to slow down the new features for this month a little - if
you would like to help out with a contribution good on you! Advertising
on the site helps but the production costs, equipment,
materials, bandwidth and webhosting etc add up to big numbers.
In
the last few month's we hope that you've seen a quantum jump
in the site's quality, from better graphics to higher quality
video. This is due to investment in cameras, lenses, lighting,
microphones and the addition of a new streaming server that
has enabled higher bandwidth for larger video streaming. Special
thanks to Johnny Jaskot for his work in improving the site's
quality.
There
are a huge number of pages to update so it's likely that you
will find quite a few pages that don't quite match the new
look, sorry about this, we are updating as fast as possible.
Many of the old videos were designed for modems and the quality
is poor, quite a few are not suitable for re-editing but where
it is possible we are re-editing and re-streaming.
We
encourage you to add links to the site from your own page
or myspace pages, we depend on widening the audience to keep
the site growing.
Thanks

Engineers area to see.

20th 2006 - A substantial amount of pages have been updated,
lots of new pictures added etc, etc.
August
18th 2006 - Jason Miles video interview shot by Johnny Jaskot
is uploaded for review - hopefully this will be on line in
a week.
August
6th 2006 - Calum Malcolm video now uploaded. The audio is poor due to a broken mic
and the video quality is a bit lacking but the content is
great.
August
5th 2006 - Lin Gardiner video now in edit - it will be up
in a few weeks - the editing has been delayed due to sync
problems in Final Cut - grrr..
August
4th 2006 - Toby Scott video is having a few tweaks before
uploading, sorry for the delay!
August
2nd 2006 - Top secret producer webcam coming soon :-)
August
1st 2006 - Gary Langan and Hugh Padgham pages updated.
July
30th 2006 - This month's hits are up on last month, again,
which is nice. :-)
July
30th 2006 - Noticed in Tape Op magazine we got a good mention
last month. Shame it takes so long to get our copy over here
in the UK as it's such a great mag.
July
30th 2006 - Lot's more producer pages updated.
July
25th 2006 - Mixing rooms page added, just waiting for the
Calum Malcolm video shot there to add.
July
22nd 2006 - Toby Scott video edits completed by Johnny Jaskot
- awaiting upload - should be on the site in the next few
days.
July 22nd 2006 - Huge number of pages updated - zillions left
to do.
July
16th 2006 - Lin Gardiner (note correct spelling) video in
edit but due to lack of time and so many other projects on
the go it is going to take a few weeks to complete.
July
14th 2006 - Resolution magazine out with several of our shots,
Pedro Ferreira feature and pics of Riverlight Studios.
July
10th 2006 - New Ultra High Resolution video of Ken
Scott is now on the site. We have asked that people who
view make a small donation via
Pay Pal as this video is 250meg and will eat bandwidth. If
this proves to be popular we will make sure that all videos
are available in this format too. Your feedback is greatly
appreciated.
July
9th 2006 - Tony Platt broadband
video shot at Townhouse Studios uploaded.
July
8th 2006 - New videos are now all going up in extra large
format. This may not be great news if you're on a modem or
have a slow connection but we are having to think ahead. The
original videos were designed to play via a modem, now they
look rubbish and as the march of technology continues we are
sure that everyone will have fast connections soon so to stay
ahead and to prevent us having to re-stream later with all
the work that entails it's best to go with a larger format
now.
If you are on a
decent broadband connection it's great news as the picture
quality is significantly better. If you find that you get
the videos stopping just wait a minute to let it buffer a
bit then start from the beginning.
July
8th 2006 - New featured record producer - Pedro
Ferreira added. We are very pleased with this video, Pedro
is a serious star in the making, great attitude, bright and
talented.
July
8th 2006 - Videos still in edit and likely to be uploaded
in the coming month include: Toby Scott, Lin Gardner, Tony
Platt, Calum Malcolm, Jason Miles, MPG event and a few others
that are being re-edited and streamed at higher bandwidths.
July
8th 2006 - Filming of new producer feature with Lin Gardner.
Hopefully this will be edited and on the site in about a week.
July
7th 2006 - Toby Scott and Jason Miles videos are nearly edited
by Johnny Jaskot. This will be a three part feature shot at
Berklee while Toby is working with Bruce Spingsteen! Expect
to see these videos in about two weeks.
July
7th 2006 - New banner is on trial. The idea is to include
the featured producer, artist orstudio etc within the banner
so each month, or week depending on how busy we are, the site
will look a bit different. It's going to be a quick way for
regular visitors to see that there have been significant updates.
Please let us know what you think - if you're an artist, feel
free to offer advice!
July
2nd 2006 - New Tony Platt video feature uploaded on to computer
for editing, will be two weeks or so before it's up.
