RECAP:

Day five with Smino Monte Booker Jean Deaux and Julian working on new music. The format for all of these sessions has been the same so far.. I help set the guys up when they arrive, we listen to what they’re working on and hang out for a few. I leave and let them get to work then check back in a few times and come through at the end of the session to help record. Smino tends to record himself so I do my best to help when I can fit the time in since they didn’t actually hire me to engineer. Big fan of Monte’s work and I’m hearing more and more from Smino, everything sounds very good so far !
