My good friend @nigesound was awarded his third BAFTA last week for his work on Killing Eve. Massive congratulations to both you and the team at Hackenbacker mate! 👏🏻 Here’s a pic of me with no hair holding said BAFTA... 🎭 (at Hackenbacker) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxaeJx0lZns/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p1arzfhr74ft

Had more than a few late nights this past week or so.

Sunday morning coffee and tweaks... 🎧🎚🎛 (at Blue Box Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1AeGdhJx7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16md5daw9lamd

Had a night out of the studio to work a live event for @descendedfromodin with @myrkurmyrkur, @nyttland_official and @sacred_knot_tattoo last night. (at York Barbican) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuLbXABBqTv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=175tefw0dli0n

Took a break from music to record a voiceover for an NHS test project yesterday. Really innovative concept! 🎧🎚🎛🎙 kurtmartinez.co.uk . . . #VoiceOver #VO #VoiceOverRecording #VORecording #Recording #Neumann #U87 #U87ai #NeumannU87 #NHS #Microphone #DepthEffect #ShotOniPhone #Studio #RecordingStudio #MusicProducer #RecordProducer #RecordingEngineer #AudioEngineer #StudioEngineer #Mixer #MixEngineer #Musician (at Blue Box Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-stndhE7e/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p38rrdluiozs

Got to assist on a session at F Block’s new set up in Ealing Studios yesterday. Nice to get back over that way and see how much it’s all changed since my days at UWL. I actually recorded my first single just down the hall from here 8 years ago! 👴🏻 (at Ealing Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtQWVy3BgEj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=huax0bp38sl7

Busy few days assisting and engineering... 🎧🎚🎛 (at Blue Box Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs5PceFhzjg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=79kv03h4q41h

Spent my day making some nasty (good nasty) grunge tones for @hannahzvzz and @alexisnotonfireee yesterday! 👌🏻 Looking forward to seeing where these tracks go... 👀 . . . #Studio #Recording #RecordingStudio #Guitar #GuitarRecording #Blackstar #ValveAmp #ValveMic #TubeMic #SM57 #FatHeadII #WA47 #EHX #HolyStain #SmallClone #LittleBigMuff #ReverbPedal #FuzzPedal #ChorusPedal #GuitarPedal #Jaguar #RecordProducer #Producer #Guitarist #Songwriter #MusicProducer #RecordingEngineer #Mixer #MixEngineer #MasteringEngineer https://www.instagram.com/p/BpSN-zJBwEC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n980b7dbfy39

That’s U2 ticked off the bucket list! 🙌🏻 Some incredible effort gone in to pulling off a show that scale. What a night! 👏🏻 #U2eiTour (at Manchester Arena) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpJ-S4nhpFQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vsbeyvk7i61c

Good to catch @bthnyrose live last night supporting @callum_sr on tour in London! 👌🏻 The first single from the EP we worked on together is available to download and stream now on iTunes and Spotify etc. I got treated to a couple of new tracks backstage too. Looking forward to being part of brining them to life 🤞🏻 . . . #BethanyRose #SameOldYou #Live #SaintRaymond #Tour #Acoustic #Ukulele #Borderline #Soho #London #Studio #RecordingStudio #Recording #Record #Studio #StudioLife #StudioGear #Producer #MusicProducer #RecordProducer #ProducerLife #StudioLife #Audio #AudioEngineer #MixEngineer #Mixer #Mixing #Mastering #Music #Musician #Songwriter (at Borderline)

Downsized and upgraded. Slightly new look studio... Can’t imagine mixing without my Console 1 now! 🎧🎚🎛 Drop me a message on [email protected] for any recording and mixing enquiries.

Spent my morning mixing drums and getting used to my new toy... 🤓😁 I’ve been looking for a controller that lets me get more hands on and quicker when mixing. I can already see how much of an improvement this is going to make to my workflow and the overall sound of my mixes. The fact that the software is modelled on the SSL 4000 E (with the added bonus of transient and drive 😍) sealed it for me! Can’t wait to put this through its paces in the coming weeks. If you’re looking for that SSL sound on your next mix drop me a message. kurtmartinez.co.uk 🎧🎚🎛 Ps. On a side note I now have a 24-track/8-bus Eurodesk mixing console for sale... 😅

I’m working on the debut release for Bethany Rose at the minute 👌🏻 You’ll be able to catch her on tour supporting Saint Raymond on his SOLD OUT shows at The Deaf Institute in Manchester and Borderline in London next month!

Mid-side hype! Tracking acoustic in stereo... 🤓👌🏻 Drop me an email on [email protected] if you’re looking to record or need a track mixing. kurtmartinez.co.uk . . . #DescendedFromOdin #Acoustic #Guitar #RecordingGuitar #Guitarist #MidSide #WarmAudio #WA47 #CascadeMicrophones #FatheadII #RibbonMic #Ibanez #AcousticGuitar #Recording #Record #Studio #RecordingStudio #StudioLife #StudioGear #Producer #MusicProducer #RecordProducer #ProducerLife #Audio #AudioEngineer #MixEngineer #Mixer #Mixing #Mastering #Music #Musician #Songwriter
