05.21.2008 - "Feedback" audio comic book by Stan Lee
I just finished working on the audio comic book "Feedback" written by Stan Lee (Dark Horse Comics). The superhero himself was in Bright Orange Studios where we did the mixing, and I placed some original music, and contributed sound design as well. Here's a bit from the official press release:

Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic (RFB&D), the nation's largest educational audiobook library, has released its first audio comic book, Stan Lee's ''Who Wants to Be a Superhero?'' published by Dark Horse Comics. Lee, the world-famous co-creator of ''Spider-Man™,'' ''Iron Man™,'' ''X-Men™,'' ''Fantastic Four™'' and ''The Incredible Hulk™,'' among others, penned the comic book, which features the superhero ''Feedback.'' The ''Feedback'' character, created by Matthew Atherton and his wife Sarah Blevins, was the winner of Sci-Fi Channel's season one hit show, ''Who Wants to Be a Superhero?'' Atherton, an RFB&D volunteer, together with Lee, helped record the
audiobook at RFB&D's Hollywood recording studio. Atherton then enhanced the recording with sound effects and original music, written by Jon Mattox of Bright Orange Studios, located in Los Angeles.

It was a lot of fun, and it was especially meaningful for such a great cause. You can listen to it as an mp3 free here:

02.29.2008 - updates at www.jonmattox.com
Bright Orange Studios has been busy with all kinds of music projects; modern glam rockers Soho Vamp, country music (Ricky Lewis / Rod Harris), revival blues (Larry John McNally), orchestral rock (Geezer), and UNI has been overdubbing too.
I've written and recorded a new series of hybrid music cues for an upcoming compilation called BAD ASS DRUMS 4.0. I've put a few up here to check out.
01.31.2008 - Roy Z / Butch / Driver @ Bright Orange Studios
The multi talented producer/guitarist/songwriter Roy Z (Judas Priest, Rob Halford, Bruce Dickinson) was just in at Bright Orange Studios producing drum tracks for the long awaited Driver album. His drummer Reynold "Butch" Carlson came in with his old school metal drum set up replete with an intense china cymbal. We did 3 days of drum tracking and we used some experimental micing techinques including live reamping of the the drums. This gave some of the tracks some interesting color especially on the snare.
This album will rock, and speaking of rock, will also feature Rob Rock on vocals. Roy Z, you rule!

It's an important film for many reasons. The website is http://www.pvc-1themovie.com/ and the new trailer will be finished soon.
