ok first track - turn down the lows on the guitar and tune the picked guitar second track - boost the bass and turn down the treble - it sounds like a bee - the drums aren't too bad though really - sort out the bass by turning down some low mid hmmm start again perhaps? not sure if the...

uh huh We were going for the vintage sound, yeh. That's why we use instruments like mellotron, pump organ and optigan. Tame the bass? It's really quite nicely compressed already - but what do you suggest?

Just recorded a new track by treacles. www.myspace.com/treacles any feedback and advice on mixing would be helpful MW + JD

uh huh Leave them wanting more!

Thanks Thanks for listening. It is quite long - something we thought a lot about. We felt that if it was too edited it would take away from the authentic live jazz band sound. That's the main thing we wanted on this recording. It is long, but there's always something happening, so I think...

Come and listen to my band, Treacles. www.myspace.com/treacles You might like it, and if you do, tell me. If you don't like it, tell me also. We use a lot of nice instruments that you might enjoy - Optigan, Mellotron, Clarinet, Field Organ etc. Any feedback at all is appreciated. Michael...

I've put some new songs on my myspace. None of them are quite finished yet but let me know what you think anyway. www.myspace.com/michaelwookey

thanks Thankyou very much. I got it open and fixed it. The problem was very simple - the frame that hold the reeds in place has little metal legs that hold it to the main frame of the whole thing, and one of those legs was interfering with the hammer, so i just bent the hammer slightly by...

I have a wurlitzer 200a and the low G# keeps not working. I know it's not the reed as it works sometimes. I can't get the piano open - that's my real concern. I've unscrewed the 3 screws at the front and it kind of comes open but seems to be jammed. Does anyone own one of these who knows how...

Spoon Girls - a well established band from the UK are about to embark on their second album but they want your help. Please send them samples of anything you so wish - field recordings, your voices, noises, music, drum parts and anything else you can think of. In return you will recieve a free...

Hey. Just made this with some friends today. Any ideas? the link is http://www.michaelwookey.com/studiodemos/opinion Let me know what you make of it, and anything you'd do to it. M

Please? Please Review?

Hey. I made this cover of my friends song - I really liked the original but I wasn't too keen on the production. When I made this I was in the process of moving house so I was very limited with what I could use. The link is www.michaelwookey.com/tobysillett/oldfriends I'd really appreciate...

shame I'm guessing all the people that read the post saw that the song was so masive and didn't bother downloading it. Understandable I suppose. DOWNLOAD IT!

This song has just been finished. A guy I know wrote it in 1979 and asked me to record it. I'm pissed off with the mix because it's not how I want it, but the guy paid me well so he has to have it his way. I'd be interested to know if anyone has the same criticisms as me, so listen away. The...

I just bought a rather rare optigan. Does anyone else own one of these? If so, I was just wondering if you'd like to have a chat about it and exchange hints etc on maintenance or whatever. Michael Wookey.

if god has time to listen to music then i'm a bit worried

This recording is very charming. Do you really think god is listening?

crikey Hi. OK, so you're using cheap mics. That's no excuse for letting it clip. Also, just turn the second vocal up and balance it out with cool edits automation if u need to. It's not too bad, except for the uneveness and the clipping. Good first effort.

uh huh Yeah. His voice is a bit hit and miss. Some people like and some people don't. He's not happy with his performance on it but I think it's fine. I'm worried that if he does it again he'll sing louder and you won't be able to hear all that nice spit stuff. I was recorded using two...
