Fred Perry Artists Lounge at Stratosphere Sound (10/21) w/ SoundToys, Blue Mics, Brooklyn Brewery
October 12, 2011 by Janice Brown
Last year – Just Managing, Insound and Stratosphere Sound put on an awesome day-long recording open-house party during CMJ week, producing the resulting “Red Wax Sessions” digital mixtape. We did a follow-up piece on the recording sessions, engineered by Geoff Sanoff.
This year, they’re doing it all over again, with support from title sponsor Fred Perry – presenting the “Fred Perry Artists Lounge” next Friday, October 21. SonicScoop, SoundToys and Blue Microphones are also on board this year as sponsors.
The event, which goes from 11AM – 9PM, offers a rare glimpse inside the recording process along with a fun Brooklyn Brewery-sponsored CMJ/AES-style mixer. Industry guests should RSVP to RSVP@stratospheresound.com.
Noise-pop duo Gauntlet Hair
With the studio’s proximity to the Javits Center, Stratosphere will make a nice stop-off for folks hitting Day One of the AES Convention, and be an oasis for bands/CMJ goers from the typical CMJ showcase venues.
The schedule of recording sessions – which can be heard/watched from Stratosphere’s upstairs lounge – will go down as follows:
11AM – Caveman (Magic Man!/ORG)
12PM – Waters (TBD)
1PM – Weekend (Slumberland)
2PM – Gauntlet Hair (Dead Oceans)
4PM – Widowspeak (Captured Tracks)
5PM – 1, 2, 3 (Frenchkiss)
6PM – Memoryhouse (Sub Pop)

Additionally, SoundToys will also be hosting an AES Afterparty at the venue from 6PM – 9PM. Visit the SoundToys booth at AES to ensure your entry!
