Recent Projects from Avocado's Zephyr Room


    Yet another incredible video clip from Eric Genuis' "Concert of Hope" in Fort Collins, Co.
    Truly a beautiful piece. We are proud to have been a part of it.


    Homesick EP
    Avocado Productions was proud to have Grant Sabin record his new EP in the Zephyr Room recently. The EP is scheduled for June 4th with a CD release party at Kinfolks in Manitou Springs, CO. Grant is the first of our Epic Failures artists.

    We have been hard at work on a re-package of Eric Genuis' wonderful music. The CD has been totally remixed and mastered here at Avocado Productions. Eric is an incredibly talented composer.

    Another video clip from last year's Eric Genuis' "Concert of Hope" in Fort Collins, Co.
    The vocalist is Lorenzo Owens.


    Cedra

    Had Cedra Kuehn in the studio recently to add a cello part to a project. Cedra is the Associate Principle Cello for the Colorado Springs Philharmonic and one great lady. We had a blast!

    The Zephyr Room is cooking with the addition of a couple of vintage Altec 1591A compressor/preamps. With plenty of clean "reference" sound coming out of the studio, it was time to color things up. And these pres deliver. From 57's to a Schoeps mic; Vocals to Bass, everything sounds great through the 1591A. We like them so much that there will be two more sitting in the rack in the near future.


    Avocado Productions recorded and helped produce the video recording of a Eric Genuis concert in 2010. Here is a link to a clip from the concert featuring Alena Merimee (who's just 17 years old) on violin. What talent!!


    The studio is finally ready for recording and just in time for a client to arrive with 31 wires and even more cassette tapes for transfer. Betty Buschette is from Minnesota and is sitting in during the transfer. Most of the recordings are of Betty's mother who was a professional singer in her younger years.


    Between our mad push to get the studio finished there has been time to master the "Emotional Freedom" CD for Gaiam. And edit a couple chapters of a Harper Audio romance novel called "A Bite to Remember". Yes, it is about vampires.


    Escape

    The John Gonzalez release "Escape" is now available at all Barnes and Noble stores and gaiam.com. "Escape" was mixed by Angie Dickinson Mickle in early 2008.


    We've been very busy with transfers of late including our ongoing work for the Vedanta Archives. You can purchase some of the lectures we have transferred including those by Aldous Huxley from Gem Tone.

    Angie has also been mixing an upcoming Gaiam CD release of work from composer John Gonzalez. The CD entitled "Escape" will be available exclusively at Barnes and Nobles stores and is set for a December 2008 release. Look for the Gaiam kiosk.


    We are once again doing wire recording transfer work for the Vedanta Archives in Hollywood, CA. The Archive received grant funding from the National Archives to preserve their significant collection of audio recordings. This includes close to 700 wire recordings. Among the transfers from wire in this collection lectures by famous 20th Century writers and thinkers including Aldous Huxley and Gerald Heard.


    Angie mixed episode 6 of the Rabbit Hole Radio Theatre series "Portals" which aired on KRFC 88.9 FM in Fort Collins.

    Rabbit Hole Radio Theatre is an artistic endeavor of Open Stage Theatre and Company in Fort Collins, CO.
