Episode 172: GFM Recording Studios
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls --
It is my privilege to share with you that Brian Kraemer and Nic Aguero of GFM Recording Studios in Blue Springs joined me for a fine, fine conversation that became Episode No. 172 of this here podcast.
Their spot lives online at gfmrecording.com and I encourage you to follow them on Instagram, as well. They are learned (shouts out to Chuck) in the recording arts and geared for creating custom beats, mixing, mastering, and are just the right fit for artists, bands, agencies, and all of your Sync needs.
During our conversation, we talked about family, upbringing, serving in the armed forces, faith, trauma, and so much more. And somewhere in the mix we took a peek at a few of their favorite albums, which were these:
Pink Floyd's The Wall (1979)
Holy Water (1990), Bad Company
Sublime's 40 oz. to Freedom (1992)
Smash (1994), The Offspring
Dave Matthews Band's Crash (1996)
Ænima (1996), Tool
Korn's Life is Peachy (1996)
self-titled (1997) Third Eye Blind
Blink 182's Enema of the State (1997)
Significant Other (1999), Limp Bizkit
Sevendust's Home (1999)
Chronic 2001 (1999), Dr. Dre
Disturbed's The Sickness (2000)
Morning View (2001), Incubus
Killswitch Engage's Alive or Just Breathing (2002)
Ocean Avenue (2003), Yellowcard
As I Lay Dying's An Ocean Between Us (2007)
It was a short list, but we managed to get through it with ease.
So, please consider the fellas at GFM for any and all of your recording needs. You can book with them online, D.M. them on the ol' 'Gram, or give them a buzz if you like at 816-598-8810.

Note: I mistakenly spoke about the Grateful Dead's "Scarlet Begonias" opening notes when I was clearly thinking of how the song "Shakedown Street" starts. As John Popper sang, "Whoops."
