Voucher Fever

Recently, the Taiwanese government gave NT$3,600 worth of shopping vouchers to citizens and qualified residents. While my own personal experience with receiving the vouchers was rather unremarkable (with only 2 people saying anything to me while I was in line, and both times in “English”), there have been several noteworthy events in the news concerning the vouchers. Here is a list of them:

Many of my friends know that I’ve spent years in the recording studio as an engineer, producer, recording artist and backup musician.  I was often called in to do some support work, such as background vocals, handclaps and so forth, on visiting artist’s recordings.  This story is about one of those times….

Hui-chen and I decided to travel to Bade, Taoyuan and see our old friends Mr. Sun and Mr. Lee (aka Paul and Lee).  Now for some reason, it seems that whenever we go back to that neighborhood, something weird happens and it’s not the fault of our friends.  A fight will break out among some gamblers or a drunk person will start bothering us.  Well, something did happen and it was in the latter category this time.

We all went to a quiet little karaoke place to relax with some good food, drink and songs.  I had my video camera with me and I was videotaping Paul and Lee singing some songs when all of a sudden, some drunk woman came in, went over to Paul and smacked him while he was singing.  Then it got worse from there!  So, naturally I made it into a feature video, and now you may enjoy it for yourself!  Here it is:

My brother was goofing around in my sister’s swimming pool, and I just happened to have my video camera with me. The following is what I shot. Please note that this is the first publicly released movie that I shot using the new Glidecam Pro 2000. Clearly I need a great deal more practice using it! Enjoy the movie!

This article has it all – music, drinking, food, and babes!

Introduction

I am producing the Fong band’s new recording sessions. This is the first production gig I’ve had in Taiwan, and I hope to get more. I’ve really missed producing and it felt great to get back into the studio, although these days “the studio” is a lot different from the 2″ analog tape and huge mixing consoles I’m used to.

In the past, given my considerable experience, I sometimes have performed on records that I’ve produced. This is nothing unusual, and in the case of the Fong band sessions, I played the backing guitar parts, mainly because it would be faster and much more consistient. It remains to be seen whether either of the two guitar players will add some parts to the recording, but at this writing, I personally played all the guitar parts. Needless to say, I won’t be doing any singing on these records because the songs are in the Thai language. I’m sure that I could learn the phonetic pronunciation and fake it but there isn’t any need for me to do so. These guys can sing quite well and we used 3 of them in a “gang vocal” configuration that you’ll see later (with photos taken from video stills).

So I hope you enjoy this article about what we did over the weekend. I enjoyed doing all these things for sure!

Friday in the Studio

Bryan Chen, owner and engineer of Wellrick Studio

It was a weekend full of music and fun. It all started out on Friday (which was a holiday here in Taiwan). First, it was guitars, guitars, Burns and VOX mayhem and more guitars!
