Producer and Engineer John Agnello is back once again, doing overdubs for the band Free Energy. Engineer Ted Young is assisting on the sessions. The Philly based band tracked the bulk of their follow up to “Stuck on Nothing” in a former church, Dreamland Studio, in Woodstock, NY. By all accounts, the experience was fun and productive, and the band now settles into Headgear to finish the final touches. Stay tuned for updates in the near future, because this record is going to blow your socks off!

John Agnello mixes Darling Don’t Dance

27 Oct

Darling Don't Dance

The Danish connection, it can not be denied! Engineer/Producer John Agnello is in this week mixing tracks for the Danish band, Darling Don’t Dance. The songs are all in English, so the international language barrier is moot. Siting influences such as Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies and Sleater-Kinney, there is no excuse not to check out this band.

Playing shows throughout Denmark, as well as Iceland and a few trips to New York, the band steadily gains exposure in their home-country press. It can only be a matter of time before the word starts spreading across the pond. Look for the new record soon…

Sub Pop band Male Bonding have a new album, and it’s been getting some amazing reviews. This latest slew of press led to an extensive write-up on music blog Altsounds.com. The band was at Headgear Recording Studio, for a week of mixing the tracks recorded in Woodstock, at Dreamland Studio. Producer/Engineer John Agnello manned the helm for the band, capturing what looks to be an album that has gained the band a wider audience. We look forward to seeing the band the next time they swing through.
