I hear ya on that V. Working for a home theater company and now starting my own clothing company really has nothing to do with the Audid Production major I did at Emerson either. If I were to come out to San Fran I could work at Five Knuckle Bullet records in Palo Alto with my best friend and get to meet people like Charlie Murphy who Came by last week to record for something he is releasing. Ah the perks of Cali.

Charlie! Charlie Murphy!! Darkness…..Darkness is spreading…….

i think that’s a great idea. you did that rap, now you could follow it up with some l33t/mad audio editing skills.

Maybe we should have an experimental audio edition of Buzz Out Loud!

Do I hear the opportunity to start the Veronica Belmont Recording & Production Studio? I can understand the disappointment that comes with your profession and your passion not being the same.

I would say that just because it’s not part of your day job doesn’t mean that you can’t moonlight as one. At the tech company where I work we had a manager who had the same passion, set up his own recording studio and regularly has local acts come in and record their demo albums. He made enough from that to actually cut back from his day job and spend most of his time doing that. Startup capital and equipment is definitely an issue (as a musician I know all about expenses), but there are definitely other other options with finding someone else in the same boat (but with the equipment).

I also look at the “profession not being passion” as a blessing as well. I love music and I also love working with youth. The volunteer opportunities I have enable a release from the pressures of work. I love the fact that I can go home and do what I love to relieve stress. I sometimes think that if the thing I loved became what I did for a living - what would I do for a release?

I believe I now have enough information to start a rumor.

..ahem…

“I heard that Veronica Belmont is leaving BOL to head up the new U2 Edition iPod Hi-Fi project at Apple. Yeah, the new version supposedly has a Zoo TV projector for the visualizer and buttons dedicated to social networking and aid organization donations.”

I’ve been missing audio production lately as well. I too was a Recording Engineer in my previous life (worked for the CBC). I’ve even met some famous Canadian musicians.

I’ve been thinking about jumping onto the podcasting bandwagon, albeit a bit late. I just need to figure what the content would be.
