Over the holidays, Jingle Punks did music for a new History Channel show called Madhouse. We were asked to make a new master of “One Piece at a Time” by Johnny Cash and because we were all on vacation when the request came in we used several studios, locations and artists to make this happen.
Here is a breakdown of how the process for this worked.
Step 1: I produced the basic track for the network to approve. For this I used my portable logic studio using Logic and the Apogee One. During this round I played all the instruments and put in temp vocals.
Step 2: Revisions to the instrumentation and vocals were requested and the track tempo was adjusted to fit the picture.
Step 3: Reach out to one of our Jingle Punks Artists to step in as vocals on this track.
When all was said and done the final track production was as follows. I played acoustic and bass guitar and drums, Matt Chambless played electric guitar, Jeff Peters played the washboard and James Mason was the star of this on vocals.
