April 2010

April was a busy month here at Logic Music! We are glad the winter is over and the projects seem to be coming out of hibernation en force!

The first big news I would like to mention is that www.logic-music.com now is happy to announce our new website hosting and development team at Alkon Consulting Group, Inc.! We are very happy to be working with Al, Michael, Jane and crew and look forward to new and exciting developments here at our website! Thanks guys for making our transition over to your servers seamless!

Special thanks to producer John Gatto and artist Anne Regina on finishing the musical arrangement and recorded track here for the new single and upcoming Anne Regina album! Anne and John are now doing some additional production work over at Tiki Recording with our long time friend & collaborator Fred Guarino at the console there. Spyros did all the programming, arranging and recording here in Digital Performer but delivered the tracks to Fred in the Pro Tools format. We are looking forward to continuing work on this great project and Anne's upcoming release. As always, it's a pleasure having Anne Regina & Cat Track Productions here in the studio!

By the way John Gatto and fellow band mates the Good Rats put on a really great show at BB Kings in NYC on April 16th. You guys rock harder then ever after all these years!

Stephanie K finished another track here at Logic Music Inc. this past month. This one was collaboration with daughter Michelle on music, lyrics and vocals. Logic Music brought in star rapper Luis Vega to handle the heavy lifting on this track! Luis did a great job for us on this session. We are looking forward to Stefanie’s next song production slated to start here in May!

We want to congratulate Luis Vega and J. Parka for their upcoming opening slot with Justin Bieber and Sean Kingston at Madison Square Garden on August 31, 2010! Holy crap, nice gig boys!

Spyros handled engineering on a mastering project for singer/songwriter/actress Debra Austin Toscano. We re-mastered a collection of Debra’s songs to be released shortly. We also want to congratulate Debra on her run with the musical Girls Night Out now in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand.

Debra has also been producing a new arrangement and recording with Spyros on her classic composition "Let Me Love You." This track is coming out great and we will be including it on her upcoming independent release.

On another note Spyros and Debra are in pre-production on a new album of all jazz standards and classic covers. This project will be produced and recorded with all live players. What a concept! We are all very excited to start rehearsals as soon as Debra comes in off the road!

Spyros has been in negotiation with the folks over at The Alexander Technique for an upcoming tutorial and instructional series to be produced and recorded here shortly.

Classic Irish singer Andy Cooney is looking to have Logic Music transcribe a set of charts for his live show and touring band. Andy now on tour will be performing and producing a show locally here on June 3rd with Crystal Gayle and Larry Gatlin at the Theatre At Westbury.

Frank Verdi continues his technology and production training with Spyros here at Logic Music. Frank is learning how to produce and record his original jazz compositions using the Yamaha Motif as well as learning other studio production techniques here at Logic Music Inc.

Spyros continues this month to write and produce original music for CBS 48 Hours, Dateline NBC and Access Hollywood as well as other contributions to the Beach Street Music catalog.

Mixed onsite were two live mic inputs from 1800 Flowers.com owners, founders & CEO/COO brothers Jim and Chris McCann. Featured this month and also mixed into the live feed were several clips from the 1800Flowers featured "Undercover Boss" show on CBS. The production was mixed by Spyros and fed back into the house system for the company employee’s onsite at corporate headquarters in Carle Place and simultaneously fed as video and audio across the country to every 1800remote location using Webex.

March 2010

John "The Cat" Gatto with artist Anne Regina are continuing production on their project with orchestrations and additional keyboard embellishments being added by Spyros. The track is sounding amazing and Anne's voice is equally amazing sounding with the only reference vocals recorded to date.

Spyros has been writing and submitting this month some contemporary oriented instrumental tracks for Access Hollywood and Inside Edition.

Production continues with collaboration on a hard rock volume of songs with Ethan Meixsell. The collection of material is instrumental and going to TV shows such as LA Ink, as well as many others being release on the Beach Street Music label.

Singer songwriter Stefanie K. is back in the studio on production with a batch of new material. Stefanie and Spyros are passing production files back and forth now with Stefanie doing more pre-production and vocal sketches at her new home studio!!! Thanks to Stefanie for having us here at Logic Music Inc's studio design installation department put in her new recording and production system. This is a new way to work for Stefanie and it's expanding productivity and economizing on studio time. This is making it possible for her to have more songs in production than affordable in the past. Not much of an investment for her new gear even with the system design and installation, but big on return!

Bollywood in the house at Logic Music Inc. Film composer Noelle Ventresca brought in a song for the independent film "The Uncaptured Passion" from Production Companies Entertainment Creation and Paper Weight Entertainment, Kolkata India. The song is to be used in the body of the film in a montage sequence and also in the closing credits. Spyros handled production and recording of the vocals, some additional arranging and has generated and delivered final mastered mixes to the production company in India for inclusion in the film. Congrats to Noelle for landing this film scoring gig! The movie is to be entered this month into the Cannes Film Festival and we wish Noelle best of luck with her contributions in this film production!

The production was mixed and fed back into the house system for the company employees onsite at corporate headquarters in Carle Place and simultaneously fed across the country to every 1-800-remote location using Webex.

Spyros was in session and did some more Hammond Organ overdubs at Tiki Recording Studios for singer songwriter Joe James this month. Tiki's Fred Guarino engineered the sessions, also on the session were Mark Newman playing acoustic and electric guitars and some kick-ass Dobro parts. Joe's songs are always rootsy, bluesy, and deeply soulful which make playing on them always a pleasure. It was a real treat for all of us to have Mark on this session this time too. Joe, keep rockin, we love your songs and your delivery!

Frank Verdi is in this month and moving forward on an ongoing basis using Logic Music Educational facilities. We have devised a custom program for Frank who is studying programming and arranging with Spyros. We are designing a personal study and instructional course for Frank who over weekly lessons will be producing his own contemporary jazz compositions here and at his home studio.

In addition Frank, a fine piano tuner, rebuilder and piano dealer tuned up Logic Music's beautiful Yamaha U1F acoustic piano. Nice job Frank! Great ears make for a great tuning job! You play your ass of too!! Frank also specializes in buying, servicing and trading quality orchestral string instruments. If anyone is looking for that special deal on a violin, viola or cello, contact us and we will put you in touch with Frank for your piano or string instrument needs!
