It’s All in Jeff’s Head

There aren’t a great many muso or band out there that can lay claim to having made 15 albums, but folk-blues songman Jeff Lang sure can. I Live in My Head a Lot These Days is his new release, and after all this time he is still mixing it up a little. Jeff: “I hit on a process where performances were recorded as I usually would but instead of mixing the album the conventional way (through a mixing board which sums the channels together via the master bus fader of the desk), I ran every instrument’s recorded track back through a monitor speaker each (or in the case of the drum kit, three speakers to replicate the physical size of a kit in a room). These speakers were then arranged around a stereo microphone like they were the players on an early stereo jazz session.” Old Hepburn Hotel, Hep Springs – July 6.
