The Basement Recording NC

RATES

$30 an hour for recording, production, editing and mixing as well as recording related education.

$20 per 5 min of audio rounded for mastering

$15 an hour for studio rental

ESTIMATES

The average regular length (3-4 min) song fully produced to industry spec generally takes 8 hours give or take if the material is written and well rehearsed. So, a regular length song is generally $240 give or take at the current rate. A 20 min. EP is generally $1200 give or take and 40 min. full length LP is usually $2400 give or take. It's all by the hour so the total depends on the amount of time it takes. These are good rough estimate although. Different styles and performances require a different amount of time in tracking and production editing and mixing so just hit me up for a more accurate estimate relative to your style of music.

Please contact Jamie King for recording, editing, mixing, producing, mastering and/or education service questions and/or booking and rate inquiries at:
jamie@thebasementrecordingnc.com. Please don't try to contact me or correspond with me via myspace as I can no longer sift through all the junk mail to find your message.

Cell: (336) 407-0609 * Please do not call or text me unless you don't have email access. Email works best for me as I'm rarely available for phone calls. I get too many calls and texts to be able to take and keep up with them.

ABOUT THE STUDIO

What’s up! My name is Jamie King. The Basement Recording is in reference to the audio engineering, production and mastering services that I provide out of my basement in Winston-Salem, NC. I’ve been recording bands and individual musicians since about 1996. I started recording on a 4-track, then moved on to a couple of Adats and now I use a Pro Tools system on Macintosh computer with some top of the line industry standard outboard gear and microphones. I generally specialize in recording and producing amateur to pro rock and metal (with all the relative genres) bands and musicians. My primary goal is to help bands and musicians (along with their respective label and or management) achieve an audio product that is professional sounding while incorporating the artists personal tastes in tones and audio production at the most affordable price possible. My experience as a musician in bands and previous dealings within the music industry have enabled me to provide advice and insight on many aspects of engineering and producing records for bands and musicians with many different goals. Ultimately, I feel that the commissioner of a record has final say on how the record should sound so I work really hard to give them the product that they want. I am continually striving to improve my abilities and sound quality while maintaining affordable rates. I feel that my product speaks for it self so feel free to check out other projects that I’ve done to get an idea of what I’m capable of. Check out some artists in which I have done work. You can find audio samples and friend links on my site. I will provide a list of bands that I’ve worked with. Please contact me for any questions and or booking. Thanks for considering my services.
