Recording for Murder of the Fawn

The post-birthday energy was still running high when I finally stepped back into the studio to break in the new mics. There’s always a specific kind of anticipation that comes with unpacking fresh gear, and getting everything routed, cabled, and mounted on the stands felt like opening a second round of presents. I spent the first hour just running through vocal checks, dialing in the gain, and marveling at the sheer clarity and warmth of the capture. It’s amazing how a massive upgrade in audio fidelity instantly sparks new creative momentum—it was the absolute perfect way to kick off another trip around the sun and get back to work.
