Garage Mahal Recording Studio

Garage Mahal Recording Studio Exciting records are made under exciting circumstances. I serve as Recording Engineer and Music Producer.

Garage Mahal Recording is a full service audio and music recording studio in the Portland-Westbrook Maine area. We pride ourselves in helping our clients realize their artistic vision in a flexible and familiar recording environment, using both modern technology & old school recording techniques. http://www.garagemahalrecording.com

Our studio was designed to provide a flexible & familiar environm

ent, with a 330 sq ft main tracking room large enough to be comfortable while maintaining intimacy. Two booths accommodate anything from a guitar amp or solo vocalist to a small drum kit or horn section. All rooms are constructed with Owens-Corning sound rated materials, floating floors for acoustic isolation, and are wired together, providing maximum flexibility for whatever setup the client wants. Garage Mahal Recording embraces both new technology and old school recording techniques. A great recording starts with a great performance, and our Hearback cueing system provides the client with complete hands-on control over their own personal headphone mix. A solid and growing collection of microphones capture the sounds. Recording digitally on a computer (or DAW) keeps costs low and provides a flexibility unheard of in the analog days.

I am proud and pleased to say that Stars, the new EP by the band COSMIC, is now available on all streaming platforms. Produced, recorded and mixed by yours truly at Garage Mahal Recording Studio and mastered at Pat Keane Mastering, it’s the third release by them that I have worked on in some capacity. It’s also the best batch of songs they’ve written and best mixes I’ve ever done.

Sad news: a Garage Mahal alumni, Ken McCullick, has passed. Ken played guitar for the band Black Orange and was the super laid back member, just a really nice guy. He and I would chat on FB messenger, and he told me that he was gravely ill, so I just listened and tried to keep the conversation light. He will be missed.

50 years ago today saw the release of the greatest rock and roll album AND the greatest live album (that isn’t completely live) of all time. My life would be extremely different had this album never happened.

Late last Thursday night I received an email from an old friend. Rene Braun is a photographer extraordinaire (His shots of By Blood Alone are excellent), and he needed a studio on short notice. He came in to work on some of his songs and we tracked vocals and 6-string ukulele. He sings well and songs were heartwarming and charming. The 6 string uke sounded really good as well.
