Precious came into the studio to tracks several country covers. She is a great singer and very fun to work with. There was no shortage in laughs! We somehow managed to get several songs done too. I look forward to working with her again soon.

Ocelot Robot In Studio at Ditch Road Records

This band is one of my favorite live band in Los Angeles. They are very high energy performers, excellent song writers, and some of the nicest guys you will ever meet. Great group of guys and a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to many more sessions going forward.

Super Duper is a great band that won the Battle of the West at The Good Hurt Nightclub in West LA in 2011. It was a pleasure working with them and I look forward to finishing the project that we started.

Taryn and Joey in Studio to Sing a Duet

Ryan Canestro — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 06:09:25 +0000

Taryn and Joey came in the studio to sing a duet for a friend. I ended up producing a backing track to accompany them that they were very pleased with. It was a country song that I made less country for them. They both sang great and were wonderful to hang out with. The personalities and jokes were stellar all day long. I certainly look forward to getting a chance to work with them both again in the near future. Here is a little video taste of how the day went.

Beverly and Greg Needhem In Studio

Beverly and Greg Needhem came to the studio first to do some last minute recording. After that first session, I spent a lot of time with the family over the next month. Beverly and Greg are very nice people and we were able to get a lot of work done in a short amount of time. We did 2 full albums of material. One album for each of them that was completed in time for Christmas. I look forward to working with them both in the new year.

Here is a quick clip of Beverly in the vocal booth.

The Undead Hearts In Studio for Many Sessions

Ryan Canestro — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 03:40:05 +0000

Draven Midnight of The Undead Hearts was in studio almost weekly in October and November. We tracked tons of guitars and bass. The drums were already tracked by the time the project came my way. After we finished up the vocal sessions, we mixed all of the tracks. Great times and videos to follow soon.

Stephanie Mascary in Studio at Ditch Road Records

See what happens behind the scenes of a recording studio that has little to do with the actual recording process. This session took place in October.

Kristen Castro In Studio With A Cool Track

Ryan Canestro — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 04:13:55 +0000

Kristen is back to Ditch Road Records to work on a track for a producer that may be used by a very big name pop singer. Always a pleasure to work with Kristen on anything that she brings in.

Royce In Studio To Record A Track

Ryan Canestro — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 03:28:43 +0000

Royce came to Ditch Road Records to work on her track “Want You to Go”. It was a very productive session. We got most of the music tracked as well as the vocals. We have no idea why, but near the end of the session while we were tracking vocals there was a huge fireworks display in the middle of town. We had to take a little break as the large booms were making it onto the track.

Travis Jay Back with a Vengence!

Ryan Canestro — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:03:28 +0000

On the album project that was one of the most ambitious projects that the Travis, the studio, and myself have ever taken on… we are so close to the end I can smell it. The only thing that stopped us around 4 am from recording the last guitar track was a broken capo. We have maybe an hour or two of tracking and then we are off to do the final mixes. It is pretty safe to say that the this album will be done in two more sessions. Good thing too because Travis has written about 3 double albums already that are sitting there waiting! Great vocal takes the other night and one of the most productive sessions on the entire project.
