The Making of Orchids and Violence

Here is a wonderful documentary about the making of Michael Daves' double album, Orchids and Violence, out last February on Nonesuch. I had the pleasure of mastering both the bluegrass and the electronic recordings for CD and vinyl release. Michael is a genius bluegrass guitarist, a great teacher (I've taken his bluegrass harmony singing class), and has a rare ability to communicate his artistic vision to engineers using language that we both understood. He can speak both Hertz and emotions!
