I haven’t been in a real radio studio* since 2004. And I just wrote and deleted 160 words about that. Suffice it to say, it was an important period of my career, very helpful in many ways and still impacts the work I do today. And, yet, it was a good time to move on to the next thing.

Eight microphones, two CDs, three computers, a turntable, a piano, two phone lines and more. I’m sure I’ll spend a small amount of time in here doing things.<\/p>\n

*I built one in my last office and will re-construct it in my home office one day soon. I can do most of the same things in my home-studio, but it isn’t exactly the same.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
