Open Session #5.1 - Rachel Angel: survival

[@martinhecker2118]

Love love love Weathervane. I love your philosophy of making music. I love almost all artist that were produced by you. Tutorials (not the 8 h long walkthroughs;) would be fantastic. It’s important for us to know how hand made music is engineered and produced. A soonnlost art form. Other tutorials concentrate on Hip Hop, EDM or plain pop music too much. Maybe you could think this over. Thank you!!

Hey there... We used to entertain that idea, and even did earlier on, but frankly there's so much good info out there already? And as a nonprofit we are always on a pretty strict budget. But I appreciate the interest. Thanks!

[@martinhecker2118]

Thank you for your kind answer. I appreciate it. But I still think, you can give something to the community that others can not. I am stubborn and hope for a slight chance;) Thanks again and all the best! M

Do you ever produce full albums? A lot of the songs you produce have a similar kinda build and blow-out, then fuck around at the end kinda vibe. Curious if that changes when you have more material to work with.

Hey there, John. That's a great great question. When we do Weathervane recordings, they're always singles, and it's a great observation that they tend to end up that way. Amy and I did a full length record with Rachel two or three years ago, and I hope that the pattern is not there (but it might be). Outside of these projects, in recent years we do tend to record a lot of small batches of songs at any given time. I would bet the trend is there. Gosh... probably need to change things up!

[@JohnGottschalk]

@@BrianMcTear I mean it's a cool vibe, and I get why you do it! Just after a few years I noticed a trend in certain kinds of songs you produce. Curious to listen to a full album, because I imagine you might transfer that to the structure of the album as a whole.
