A Day in the Life of Our Students

   Recording Connection student Jolleen Sogioka at Blue Planet Sound (Honolulu, HI) is getting a lot out of working with her mentor Jules Washington. “Jules is a fountain of knowledge. Having the chance to sit around and just ask him a lot of questions is a really nice perk. He takes it seriously that this is a big deal and that I put a lot into this, and the fact that he makes himself available to me really lets me know that I made a good decision. Now I’ve just got to get back on my A-Game. We’ve started some projects this week that were much different than anything I ever did [before]…very piano driven, and when he was mixing them, they were very soft and airy, but dark and gloomy. The sound was incredible.”    Recording Connection student Justin Fulton, who apprentices with Ray Norman at Dogwood Productions (Mobile, AL) is delving into the creative within while he grows skills and connections: “The feeling I get from music as a whole is, and has always been, something deeper than just sounds and rhythms slapped together to create some song. I have always known that I’ve had some sort of talent listening and creating music of my own uniqueness, so I decided to take it a step further (or rather one giant never-ending leap) with the Recording Connection in hopes of learning as much as I can, meeting the right people for success, and hopefully getting a little lucky on my path to create music that people can relate to, and feel more than anything.”
