Jamey Warren — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 18:03:53 +0000

I’ve missed a couple of Fridays so to get back on the horse, I’ve chosen an easy one this week. We recorded this album in my Livingston, MT home. Hope you can take a moment to check it out and enjoy what you hear.

Jamey’s Favorite Friday’s – Radiohead, The Bends

Here’s another one of my favorites. Radiohead, The Bends is filled with interesting textured sounds and the performance comes across with plenty of passion. This album makes me want to jump up and dance.

5 things to know before going into the studio.

1. Have the arrangement of your song planned out. The best way to do this is to chart it down including the chord changes. As much information as possible will save you time and money in the studio.

2. Know the tempo’s of your songs. Make sure you and your band practice with a metronome. This one always seems to be very difficult to really make happen but is probably one of the biggest things that separates the pros from the amateurs.

3. Determine in advance who will play solo’s and how long the solo will last.

4. Often times it takes just as long to mix your recording as it does to actually record it. Sometimes even longer. Depending on the studio you go to, there may be some more steps you need to take before it’s ready to go to press.

5. Be on time. Many studio’s bill you for the actual time you book the studio so be sure to arrive early with all of the accessories you need to perform your best. New sticks, drum heads, water, guitar strings, picks, snacks, and whatever else you can think of that you might need.

A Headphone Geek’s Dream Job @ HeadRoom

Jamey Warren — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:43:06 +0000

I recently accepted a full time position as product development manager for HeadRoom, the center of the headphone universe. At least that’s what I see one of my biggest challenges to be, that is making sure HeadRoom is the number one place for all things headphone. I’m super excited to be working there again and look forward to collaborating with their diverse and talented crew. Though this is not necessarily that new for me as I have been consulting with HeadRoom for several months and was previously employed in a variety of positions for four years. I took a short break for a couple of years to focus on my own personal and professional goals. Now I’m back and I’ve realized how inline HeadRoom’s goals are with mine and can’t wait to get the ball rolling.

The hardest part for me has been focusing my efforts on what is most important. While there are a lot of reasons why a product may or may not see the light of day, here is a small opportunity for you to influence the future of what HeadRoom has to offer.
