Dana B Martin replied to Dana B Martin's discussion Budget Home Studios"Hey, guys. Having looked over some older posts about the usefulness and desirability of home studios I would like to reemphasize that my interest is not at all in competing with commercial studios.

Dana B Martin replied to Dana B Martin's discussion Budget Home Studios"Hey Kent, thanks for the reply. Most of us up here in the cheap seats aren't blessed to be able to do music for a living. We have to do it because we love it, and are willing to make sacrifices instead of a living. For me, and I suspect for…"

- About Me:
- I;ve played guitar and bass for close to 50 years. While I've made my principal living as a paramedic, I have been doing collaboration on faith-based recording projects for a number of years. For the last couple years or so I've been doing some mixing as well. I play in the praise band for Lamb Fellowship messianic congregation. A few years ago the Father laid on my heart that I was to offer my humble abilities without charge (dang it!) to folks that want to praise Him. He's given me so much I'm honored for the chance to give something back. In that capacity I do a fair amount of online collaboration with faith based artists. Hey, I'll be rich on the other side.

Thanks, Dana! Sorry about not calling you back. I have a super busy week. Putting the finishing touches on the house to get it on the market, and have family in from out of town this coming weekend! After next week things may slow down a bit, but probably not - haha!

Ron Oates said… Hey Dana... OK... So I'm a slug. I seldom check messages on this page and I apologize for my tardiness. I'm so pleased you and your wife enjoyed "For Melania". I composed that for the 40th birthday of the wife of a long-time friend of mine. I thought, "What can I give a girl whose husband has at least half the money in the world that her husband could never give her?" A song! Thank you for your kind words. Yes, your dad was my first Nashville copyist. I learned a lot from your dad.
