Session Skills

Smells Like Teen Spirit

This was first recording session we did as a whole class. Overall it went okay, however as this recording session for us to learn the recording process and equipment rather than producing a well rehearsed track. Smells Like Teen Spirit just happened to be a song that a few of us knew (or at least we thought we did). I have included this in my portfolio as it gives a good comparison of how far I have come as a session musician.

This was the first recording session that I was the MD. I chose the song then reached out to my fellow class mates to form a band for this session, and created contracts for them to sign. I then filled out a information form for the producer/sound engineer detailing information on the song, equipment needed, and the musicians taking part. Once the paperwork was sorted I booked a practice room so that we could rehearse before the recording session. The session went really well and we managed to get the main recording done in a couple of takes. After this, the trumpet and vocals were overdubbed.
