Oh John, You Had Me At Hello


This fascinates me. While I always knew that John Mayer was one of the most talented pop/rock artists on the main-stream scene(probably the most talented in my opinion), I don't think I ever realized the extent of his genius. I went to his site randomly today to see if a new record was in the works, and, I must say, I'm addicted to this organic, focused, creative project he has going on. If only more musicians were as concerned with being smart and genuine, I think music would be in a far different place.

Choose Your Poison

Found this killer site where you can hear recordings of any microphone you can imagine. The best part about it--you choose the instrument or even a male or female voice that you'd like to hear recorded. This is great for people like me who have limited resources as far as actually listening to the sounds these microphones capture in a studio environment. Looks like my search for an affordable microphone that is good for acoustic guitar and vocals isn't as limited as I thought. Check out this site!
