Cookie's Corner - #173 - Getting ready for re-entry and we're starting with NAMM - who's going?
From Cookie Marenco - Founder and Producer Blue Coast Records and Music
We are especially grateful to our music lovers. Remember, if you buy two albums at Blue Coast Music, you can get a 3rd one free. After purchase, send us an email with your invoice, choice of the album and format you’d like us to put into your online account.
We’re getting ready for 2024 and re-entry to the world of music and audio. We haven’t attended a large convention since NAMM 2020 - just before the Pandemic. Some of you might remember we coordinated with AES to offer “HiFi Sunday”. It was a day of panels for professional audio specialists and manufacturers to meet our audiophile community directly. A very fun day we hope to do again in the future.
Four years went by in a poof. I’m excited to visit our old friends and see what they’ve been up during the pandemic. The other conventions we’re considering are in Chicago, Hong Kong, Paris to name a couple of places we may be travelling to in 2024. We’ll be available for meetings, offering our music to manufacturers and making new friends.
Meanwhile, back at the studio
The studio has been recording, mixing and mastering new projects. There’s been a resurgence of interest to find and release music that only exists on 2” tapes. We’ve been looking at our own archives and digitizing old recordings for future release.
Two companies have contracted us to beta test their new gear and create demos for them. This is really exciting work that we love to do.
We’ve had a flood of new people wanting to learn audio skills and have training sessions going on weekly.
I’ll be writing more on our activities coming in 2024. What have you been doing? Will we see you at a show? Let us know!
Have a great week and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
