Finally!!! Seriously, finally! We are incredibly excited that jLine has just released his newest album, Epic, which was produced and recorded at Mirrortone Studios. This album is, just as the title would lead you to believe, truly Epic.
This album is the third one jLine has done with us, and we could not be more proud of how it turned out. He is currently touring across the United States promoting the album and delivering his custom blend of dance-pop to the masses. From what we see so far on Twitter and Instagram is that there is an overwhelming amount of love for this album. We can’t wait to see which single off this album gets picked up for MTV (jLine has already had three of his hits make it to the tube), our guess is that it will be Epic or Put Em Up, although Rollercoaster is just out of this world catchy too.
So enough just promoting the awesomeness of this album, let’s talk a little bit about recording this album with jLine. We approached this album a little differently, in fact, differently than most albums we do. For this one, we actually had intense in-person writing sessions with jLine so he could oversee every note we wrote for the backtrack. It was great having him come into the recording studio and make music together. Luckily, jLine lives in New York City (we can’t tell you where, you weird stalkers you!), so he was able to come into the studio again and again until all his tracks were just right. After we made a backtrack jLine would take it away and devise his catchy pop vocals (and dance moves) before coming back into the studio. One thing I love so much about recording jLine in the studio is that we can try new things. Sometimes when artists are on a time budget we just hit them with the best standard practices to get an amazing and clean sound, but with this album, we had the time to try out some new microphone techniques, crazy recording processes, and some good old stacked harmonies.
I know I say this just about every post, but being an NYC recording studio is just about the best thing in the world. But it’s not just that we are a studio in the heart of the entertainment world, it’s that we get to work with incredible artists like jLine. This album is gonna be a classic pop record and I can’t wait for you to hear it. Check out jLine’s website and give the album a spin!
