#remusummerhs

Dear REMU family, 

The past month with all of you has granted an incredible amount of memories to look back upon. But that doesn’t mean that our time together is over.

I have found my tribe, my community of people that I want to surround myself with. You all inspire me and I can’t wait to continue creating, playing, learning, laughing and so on with every single one of you. Marat, Alan, and the entire REMU team… You’re the best. Thank you for everything, as this opportunity was life changing and I have learnt so much and will continue to grow with these tools (in both the entertainment business, as well as the way I live my life). It honestly has been the best summer ever, and the greatest month of my life. To everybody reading… Let’s keep on being us. It’s not about where you’re heading- It’s about where you are and the people you’re with. I’m glad you’re my people. And all we can do is enjoy where we are. I love all of you- as both artists, and more importantly… friends. This is not a farewell. It’s a see you soon. 

Love, 

(especially in the studio)

Act super emotional

Pretend to cry

Come up with a completely irrational situation

Defend it with you life

Act incredibly offended any time anyone questions it

Storm out

After deciding between three songs, we finally decided one with emotional vocals and powerful chord progression—“Lily." Though we were stalled by a few malfunctions in studio, Kharee eventually laid down a piano part, and Zoe’s voice was recorded and comped over top soon after. Emma plans to add a cello bass line to give the song a more dynamic sound, and will also harmonize to the lead vocals in the second verse and final chorus. We considered adding drums but came to the conclusion that they didn’t fit the intimate sound of the track. Zev has been working on marketing and branding, and designed a minimalistic logo in black and white. Hunter has taken on the role of the audio engineer, comping and recording tracks on our first single. Kharee’s been producing the track and Zoe is bringing it to life with her and Emma’s vocals.

Hello my name is Sami Nacach

I am one of the TAs this summer. I am a recording and mixing engineer, with a particular focus on live sound recordings. I have done extensive work as FOH, concert recordings, and overall studio work. My business EAG, focuses on capturing the magic of live sound at an affordable price, which you can check here www.elementaudiogroup.com. Here you will find some of the music I have recorded and mixed. 

I am excited to learn from all of you and I am looking forward to this experience.

See you soon!
