Ray has recorded two albums (Eleven: Eleven/The Occasional Sour Note), playing all of the instruments, vocals, and handling the engineering/recording skills himself. The ultimate in lo-fi technique, he set up a small studio in his corner-suite apartment, sound-proofing the room and improvising a sound booth. He was able to record late at night when the pub just outside his window closed, and his neighbors were sleeping. Being on a main road, Ray had to time his takes with dog barks, ambulance sirens, and Harley's peeling out. Much of what you hear are first takes, straight from the mic to the track. No auto-tune, effect modulators, stomp-boxes, or MIDI instruments were used.
