Dream Analog Vinyl Test Prints!

on By

We just received the test prints from the record manufacturing plant, RTI. They sound super fantastic! Very excited for you to hear and more importantly feel this music! I am so grateful that the feeling I put into the music is reflected back so well in these recordings. Finally!

Dream Analog
180 gram vinyl and CDs will be released April 2020 on Record Store Day!

Dream Analog was recorded analog, mixed analog and mastered analog. AAA. Anyone that has spent any time at all immersed in listening to records (that were recorded before digital recording practices) knows the difference. With Analog Recording you’ll find there is more feeling in the music!

The first 2 Singles will be released on Spotify February 1, 2020.
Please follow us on Spotify!

Enjoy the process of getting your own gifts materialized into the world. 2020 should prove to show us all more clearly what our gifts are and how we can expand them…time is now. Never forget that you are an amazing being. You are an original.

We are all waking up to ourselves —

Love and Butterflies,
— Grace Gravity

New Album,Dream Analog, Mixed at Laughing Tiger Studios

on By

Long Live Analog!

Brian D. Hardin, Teri Hitt, Ari Rios (owner Laughing Tiger Studios)

We had a great time mixing at Laughing Tiger Studios in San Rafael, CA just North of San Francisco.
Producer, Brian D. Hardin, was in his element mixing on a SSL console. It was great to experience it. The resulting sound, to me, is so much more alive than anything created in the box (computer). The sonic messages come through loud and clear.

 

 

Magic happened.

On our way there we went to the Sequoias to hug some trees and feel their quiet strength. The simple beauty of nature engulfs you and gently reminds you that there is so so much more to life than striving for this or that. Reality is more than meets the eye. We must FEEL to access the higher realms.

The biggest Sequoia  there is named General Sherman but we agreed to call it Mother Tree instead. While there we shot video for one of the songs on the album, Mother Earth.

We also shot video for another song, In The Center, at a river there. The river was a powerful presence that flowed all around me as I stood on some rocks. There were tons of dragonflies about. The sound of rushing water is good for the soul. I was happy I did not fall in!  Ha ha ha 🙂

The album was recorded analog and now is mixed analog. Soon to be mastered for vinyl (and CDs and maybe cassettes. Ya I said cassettes people!…. ha ha ha). Dream Analog will be released April 2020.

My hope is that it will feed you and inspire you to connect within and grow, to create and share your special gifts with the world. We need you. Blessings to you all.

Keep It Together

You do a drug called television
just thought I’d let you know
your best friends not your tv
your ipad or your phone

it may try to break you down
with it’s frequency

If you think it guides you
you really are asleep

It’s the wrong road
wrong time
old paradigm
really not a shame
its slipping down the drain
we’re sorting it out

Sun comes up again
if we divide who wins?
so side step that –

We’re not gonna fall
for the freak show paranoid
we keep it together
oh ooo hooo
keep it together

We keep it together.

Analog Train rolling down the tracks

Just a little update on my new album Dream Analog.

We recorded two more songs live a couple weeks ago. Bass, drums, keyboards, guitar and lead vocal all live to tape. Talk about walking the high wire. If you’ve never done it, it’s something you must experience for yourself. A certain magical synergy is found in those moments where you know you have to get the take as its about 105 degrees in the room you’re in and you just can’t do the song one more time! It’s not a copy and paste situation (as in digital) and so, everyone really must call in the magic. It works.

We have most of the tracks recorded now. James Whelan (Under The Sky) did a couple sessions and added some amazing piano and guitar to several songs. So great!

June Kato has laid down all the bass and Brian D. Hardin all the drums. We just to add a few more keyboard parts, some horns and some background vocals and Dream Analog will manifest in this reality zone!

I’m writing Chapter 2 of the Dream Analog video series so look for that in the next few months. Here’s Chapter 1 if you haven’t seen it.  Good things to come!

Hope you are all moving forward on your amazing creations as well! Remember no matter what is going on in the world around you, deep down you are Whole and Fine.

Keep Creating!

To all the musicians and creative people out there — keep on going!

Do not judge yourself by what is or isn’t reflected back to you by others, social media or whatever external metric. You are an ARTIST — get real — you are a power generator of pure creative source. Your resonance changes the frequency of the planet and adds a new variable to the ever changing tapestry we live. YES it is so!
