Devastated to hear of the passing of Taylor Hawkins, drummer of the Foo Fighters. I don't think I've ever been more saddened to hear of the passing of a musician. I always said, Taylor and Dave played every show as if the fate of the world depended on it. I was really looking forward to seeing them this year at Osheaga.

Taylor... you will be sorely missed.

Really saddened and shocked by this news. Our love goes out to his family and the Foos. We had some unforgettable times on tour together. He will be missed Posted • My heartfelt condolences to Taylor’s family and to the Foo Fighters and their fans. He is one of the best to have graced the stage and an incredibly sweet human being. He will be greatly missed.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

In all likelihood, I'm going to stop taking new projects within the next couple of months, so this might be your last chance to take advantage of MTL's most ideologically driven recording studio!

Reminder that plenty of samples are available at:
www.Soundcloud.com/fliptheindustry

Get in touch ASAP to book your session before it's too late.

It has been a pleasure and honor to serve you all and help you bring your music to life these last few years, and I do hope to pass the studio off to another engineer like myself to keep the FLIP spirit alive and to continue helping MTL musicians. Depending on how some things go, I might officially turn this into a non-profit studio for indie artists.

Thank you for your business, your support, your music, and your love.

Your friendly neighbourhood sound engineer and producer,

Benjy

Awesome pic from our session with Tightrope over the weekend. Really digging the songs we worked on. Hope I can share them with you all very soon!

:)

We've gone radio silent on all of you since the summer, but that's because we have been busy! There's a lot of big stuff coming in the very near future that we can't wait to share with everyone.

Most importantly, we want to publicly welcome Preto Murara to the fold!

Just a reminder from your friendly neighbourhood NDG recording studio: FLIP the Industry is still around, running strong, and sounding better every day!

Just released some blues from Chard Chénier and had a great session with Tightrope this weekend. Quotes from the session:

- "You are so amazing to work with! I felt so comfortable here."
- "Would you give me a motivational speech every morning?"
- and about 10x of "Oh wow... I never thought of it that way!"

;)

Here's Ishana with her video for Heatwave, recorded, mixed, and mastered, with some production from FLIP the Industry.

Got an album of assorted blues for y'all on this 'haven't you had enough of this gat danged winter already' Sunday.

Such a pleasure and honor to work with such a wide variety of artists. All ages, all races, all genres and genders. Sharing in their life stories is a truly touching endeavor.

If you're not feeling blue, I recommend the song "I Love My Wife". Normally blues is all about when you're woman leaves you, but Chard Chénier changed up the paradigm on that one.

Enjoy!

Busy week at the FLIP studio. Recording with The Skyward Eyes the other day - with a special guest from John Jacob Magistery filling in the violin - and finishing that off on Monday.

Recording some rap right now. Got Ishana coming back to finish her tracks later tonight, and rehearsal for Heather Ragnars presents: Bench Warmer EP Launch - Nov 29 with the crew tomorrow night.

Plus, a song from the lovely Sara Lalezar on it's way asap.

Keep the tunes a rolling!

Ok... This has nothing to do with FLIP, but music this awesome, true and hilarious deserves to be shared. Enjoy!
