New GEAR!! and the future of our company

Hello everyone! First of all, thanks for following us. We have a ton of new developments in the Blue Room. As you can see, we purchased some Yamaha NS-10s for the room as well as our first piece to our drum set - a New Beat hi hat. The NS-10s are almost an industry standard for mixing amongst most major recording studios. These will provide us a better near-field reference monitor. Plus, many mix engineers prefer to mix on these speakers because of their extremely flat "color-less " response. The New Beats are the most recorded hihats of all time. I started with the hihat to incorporate live hat in a lot of my productions. The New Beats have a great tone. The hat will also be the first piece to our drum set that we will be building custom alongside other major upgrades. Also, we have started the launch of the official production team in the Blue Room = Music Life productions. Music Life will consist of me as a producer and James Kang will be signing on as an engineer. Music Life as an entity is devoted to preserving the organic creative process of music and composing timeless music. We will be looking to sign artists and writers. Music Life will be a focus of the blue room along side everything else we do. We are aspiring to make the Blue Room Recording a modern day Motown-esq environment. We want not only to be a high quality place to record in Atlanta, but to be the go to studio for production in the city as well. We are devoted to helping cultivate and work with the best talent.

"Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of you.." - Charlie Parker

Bobby Valentino in the Blue Room Working

We used a laptop webcam so the quality isn't the best. We are considering getting a really nice webcam for artists that want to stream sessions live. This was a creative session that Bobby booked working on a song for his new album. Unfortunately, it is too dark to see the studio but hopefully you all can feel the vibe! James Kang engineering.

What's new? April 2010

Hi everyone,

We are currently settled in our new room and keep finding ways to upgrade it every day. We've added the xbox 360 with NBA 2k 10 and FIFA Soccer 2010. Our Xbox also has an HDMI cable so you can enjoy playing it on our HD 1080p lcd! We've are also fully stocked with some drinks and snacks in the room. Beyond all the entertainment, we went through and upgraded all the wiring previously in the building. We are now running top of the line Mogami quad cables through the room and the building. Our black lion interface is only being used for now as a sufficient power source. We are bypassing its analogue stages via our Mytek Converter and super clock while only using inputs 5-8 for live recordings. Our vocal chain keeps getting better. Stay tuned for a virtual walk through of the studio shot in HD quality too! Thanks for working with us!

The new Blue Room is here!! New gear, 4x larger control room, amazing vibe, large vocal booth.

Newest Weapon in our Arsenal!!

one of the best software comps I've ever heard!! new to the blue room!! We just keep sounding better

The API luncbox is here!!

Check out our newest gear addition: The API lunchbox. This is a picture from inside the writing room (Lunchbox running through the Black Lion Audio modded 002). The API lunchbox is a portable unit with a dedicated power source that allows us to mix and match different mic pres, compressors, and eq's for different tonal colors on recordings. We started off with a few API 512c's. The 512c is a classic design especially impressive on bass guitar and drums.

This week ONLY! (feb 1-5) We are doing a HUGE special!

Samples of vocals recorded at The Blue Room!! - Scar feat. The Cool Kids

This is Scar singing through the Neumann m149 mic. This is what a standard rough mix coming out of our room can sound like:

Scar - Intergalactical Affair Snippet (recorded on neumann m149/standard rough mix/ no limiter on master bus/ no master: for the Cool Kids mixtape!)

New music coming: Slim from 112 first single produced by Bill Jabr

Look out for Slim's first single produced by me and written by Terell Howard and Me. Also co produced by Jo Kane- coming first quarter this year 2010! Will post link when it gets mastered.

New Major Upgrades to The Blue Room!!

Hi everyone, I just wanted to keep you all posted on the MAJOR upgrades that are taking place in the Blue Room!! To start off, I just ordered 32 new panels of Auralex (a high end acoustical foam) and Rel, James, and I will be taking a day over Thanksgiving to acoustically touch up the room and vocal booth! Also, our most major upgrade will be the Black Lion Audio Signature Series modification to the protools rack. This mod will completely replace stock protools converters, clock, pre amps, and power source! This modification will have our protools rig sounding like a high end mastering suite and even better we you will be recording at a higher quality than a protools 192 HD interface!! Your vocals will be much cleaner and you will get a more realistic tone out of the 1272 mic pre. Especially - better definition on the highs and less mud on the lows! This upgrade alone will make our room unique and put us on par or better with many of the bigger rooms in town. Also, as I am typing, I am installing the protools toolkit. This kit upgrades our track count to 64 tracks mono or stereo as well as adds multiple new plug ins including the Smack plug in (a $400 mastering/compression plug in). On top of that, I am installing the mellowmuse plug in in order to correct any unwanted latency in any of our plug ins! Last but not lease, many of you have noticed that we have started using dual monitors for faster and more convenient editing! Thanks for following and please check back for nonstop upgrades.

New Sub Woofer in the studio!!

We have a new gear addition to the blue room = a samson 10 inch sub. This sub was tested and compared by me personally and great for a clean low end response! We are also now running split screen monitors in the room. This makes it more convenient for engineers to separate the mix and edit window easily in protools. Thanks for stopping by and see here what people are saying about their experience in the blue room:


"The words "Quality" and "Perfection" are the best words to describe the Blue Room" - Q Da Kid (Def Jam Recording Artist)

"They actually care about what you sound like" - Deshaun Duron (indie artist - vocalist)

"The Blue Room's ambiance sparks great creative ideas" - Serge (A&R Atlantic Records)

"I really enjoyed working in the Blue Room. the space felt very comfortable for me and the artist I was working with. The sound quality was great!" - Lundon Knighten (Songwriter- Leonna Lewis, Rich Boy)

"The mic sounds great. the engineering is great." - Scrap Deleon (indie artist rapper)
