Not much to report. The Studio is busy, despite many technical glitches. 2 weeks ago the main data drive blew. (The one with ALL the recordings on it). Through luck and minor technical wizardry, I was able to save everything. Fast forward a week after that, during a mastering session with Hey! Death?, Cam and myself watched helplessly as the other drive followed suit. That one - could not be saved.
Luckily, no recordings were lost. Just time. Lots of time was lost. We were able to borrow Kyle's rig from ITA Studio 2, which saved the Gay's 3 day recording session. Yay!
Recent studio visitors include Gay, Hey! Death?, Observatory, The Exotic Pets, and The BluIgloos. So much recording - still with nothing being close to a release. I know it's only rock and roll - but I like it.
I think this summer has been pretty shitty.

Just about all moved in

Almost all moved into the new space. Effortless Records has relocated again, for a 4th, and hopefully for a long while - final time. New studio space is pretty decent - no control room, but a good amount of room. Look here soon for new news, and the unveiling of the new studio name.
Safe Trip Grant!

Goodbye Safe Trip Grant! Grant will be packing up and heading to New York City this coming Friday.
We will still be working with him remotely, and wish him the best!
Another re-location

We've had a few noise issues with some neighbors that limits when we can and can't play and record music, so I've bought a house that should remedy most of that. The new studio space will be bigger and better than ever.
Hoping to have the new studio up and running for June 2010.
Please check back for updates.

Ever since I've added Gay to this page - the web searches have gone way up - they are that popular.

Not sure what to write here. Effortless Records is on hold for now, and my studio is gone. For those who don't know, I was blindsided by a brutal separation/divorce at the end of August.
It's going to take a while to re-build. Thanks for your support.
Edit: Effortless Records is still a little - shut off - at the moment, but will be back again someday. Studio2 is still open, and of course, Studio1 has been wiped off the map. However, things are looking good to relocated at The House of Bleen. Many logistics still need to be hammered out on that, but if all goes well...
