Hey Luke... Thanks For a Great Day, We Got Some Great Tracks Done.

WHERE’S MY GROUPIE
I had a thoroughly enjoyable day on Saturday. I found myself in a recording studio for the first time in my life. Starting at just after ten o’clock in the morning and finishing at roughly six o’clock Angela and I managed to record three of our own songs. Compared with putting a band in the studio I guess it was all quite straightforward with just the vocals and acoustic guitar to record.
We started off by recording a guide track. To do this Luke selected a drum beat to help me keep time. I then played over the top and Angela added a vocal line. For step two Luke removed the guitar line so I was able to play along with the drum beat and vocal line. Luke gives you three takes, plus any small overdub areas you need. From the three tracks Luke then makes a single guitar track. Step three saw Angela singing over the guitar track.
As with the guitar three versions of the vocal track are taken. Again Luke then makes a single “best of” vocal track. This is then added to the guitar track and it is a case of job done.
By lunchtime I had recorded two guitar tracks. In the afternoon Angela added the vocal tracks. Once they were mixed all that was left to do was burn them to a CD. It was a very good day’s work and money very well spent. I look forward to going back and recording two or three more songs in the autumn.
I would happily recommend Fluke Productions if you are looking for some good value for money recording.

KIDD
A fifteen year old from east london, he first approached fluke productions recording studio through a family friend. Straight away you could feel a vybe!
Kidd started to rap his hook "what u got". Luke was straight there with a deep b-line. The rest of the instrumental came together in the next 10 minutes leaving time for a quick arrangement and plenty time for the vocals (these always take more time than you think).
"We recorded the hook separately first" says Luke, "multitracked it and then got to work on the verses."
"When recording a sung vocal it is easy to break up the song/verse recording a few lines at a time."
"But this seems more of a challenge with a rap vocal so we recorded it all in one."
And after just a few takes they had one both kidd and luke were happy with. Kidd was very happy with the finished track and returned to record three more.
REBECCA C.
Rebecca C is a drama student from Hackney who's been writing songs since she was 8. She wasn't sure exactly what style of song she should go for but when she heard what fluke productions had done for other people she had just the song!
She started by singing the whole song for Luke while he listened tentatively. Luke asked her to sing the chorus section a few times while he tried some chords out on the acoustic guitar.
A few minutes later they had it - and they moved onto the verse before finally linking the two sections together with a bridge.
At this point it was clear that the song would be mainly acoustic guitar with perhaps some simple drum sounds and possibly some sort of strings. So the acoustic guitar part Luke had been playing was recorded. Then while playing this back he messed around recording some other parts to spice it up. Next some simple drum programming was added and also a string part.
When Rebecca came to do the vocals she had had some ideas that weren't quite working. However with some guidance from Luke she found the ones that were, and in the end keeping it simple was the answer!
