I 'm also the guitarist and a founding member of trespassers william http://www.myspace.com/trespasserswilliam , I make ambient music under the name disinterested http://www.myspace.com/disinterestedmusic and I play bass in the band altspeak http://www.myspace.com/altspeak.
About
About the Studio:
The studio is on the sixth floor (with elevator access) of the former Rainier brewery (often called the "Tully's Building") in a 1400 square foot artist live/work loft - approx. 1/3 is set aside as dedicated studio space, the rest is a residence and art studio. The ceilings are about 17 feet tall (The studios dimensions compare quite similarly to the specs of Studio A at Abbey Road). There is one acoustically isolated and treated iso/vocal booth. The bathroom also doubles as an isolation point. Four 10'x10' windows provide plenty of light. The hallways throughout the brewery provide many options for unique natural reverbs.
