New York City: A great place to record music
"What makes something that is truly mechanical have rhythmic groove?"
"Why do the Number One Sons get so much recording session work?"
"How is having a studio in Manhattan different from having a studio in another city?"
The questions and more are answered in this week's video. Here we get into the issues of groove and feel, while here we dive into details of distortion and drum preparation.
These episodes are dedicated to the memory of the late, great guitarist Hiram Bullock (1955-2008), who was a good friend of this studio and the people who make music there.

None of your videos work for me. I am using the latest versions of firefox and flash player, so why isn't the video playing? Is there a way to download videos from the pandora blog? When I click play, the play/pause and rewind button both disappear. Then the loading bar slowly fills up, and nothing else happens. It doesn't go past the title screen.

Hey!
Today is my first day listening to Pandora and I've never heard anything like it before. This is the best, Pandora is better than listening to the radio. I want to hear music not talking and this is exactly what I get. I will listen to you every day from "hear" on out.
Thank you
Rose

Hi, Nathan,
I'm emailing you directly, as I've figured out what the problem was for your playback.
Hi, Rose - thanks! That's great that you're enjoying it.
Hi, Erin,
I sent several of the bands you suggested to our suggest-music@pandora.com account. Those are the people that buy new music for our collection.
