Whatssss newwww

oh man.. Its been a while. I've either been really slow or really busy... and I never remember I have this blog unless I check my spam.

So since I remembered; here's what's new and awesome in the world of Brooklyn Audio Rentals in no order whatsoever!

Brooklyn Audio Rentals is now a proud sponsor and the free drinks tickets have nothing to do with it .... of the Rebel Spirit Music showcase at Flux Studios. It's a great indie showcase with a lot of talented up and coming bands.

I'm endorsed by Daisy Rock Guitars now .. It's a pretty sweet deal.

B.A.R has made friends with the new music friendly website Brooklyn Underground. I'm also one of 6 awesome writers for the site. I write a biweekly blog about audio swagger and whatever seems interesting and worth writing about in the Brooklyn Underground music scene.

Doing a crazy special on keyboards and synths this month! Any one you want for $100 a week. Delivery is $50 each way if you'd need it =) Email me for the keyboard list: valerie@brooklynaudiorentals.com <3

B.A.R would like to thank the following client for recently renting the toys that makes the industry a great one: 1984 Industries, Man The Change, The Walkmen, The Magic Shop, Chris Garneau, Metrosonic Studios, The Rabbits and Flux Studios.

More of what's going on..

Bunch of happenings and rentals going on in the wonderful world of Brooklyn Audio Rentals.

Thank you soo much to those who have called in an order or just inquired about the business!

Just finished a rental for the William Rast show at NYC Fashion Week last week featuring Justin Timberlake!

Anddd Rockwood Revival rented from BAR for their upcoming debut cassette release. Check it out: http://rockwoodrevival.blogspot.com/!

Hamilton, front man for The Walkmen has been renting Neumann mics for their upcoming album! For more gossip on that check out: http://pitchfork.com/news/37857-the-walkmen-sign-to-fat-possum/.

And a quick shout out to Motel Motel and Casa Nova Studios for their business.

I'm going to check out the 20dot20 event tonight at the old Hit Factory and then going to see dEKAy at the Pyramid tonight.. should be a good night! =)

Had an awesome month! Next month vacation!!!

Hugs and Kisses,

December Snooze January Rules!

I'm so glad December is over. December was a very tough and slow month but we got thru it.

Not too many rentals in December but I'd like thank Le Poisson Rouge for being such an amazing client and Brian Chaudry at Blue Sunshine Studios for renting out a bunch of plug-ins.

I started engineering a little bit again which has been exciting to say the least! I helped supply, set up and run sound for the Arts Management Associates show case in NYC on January 10th and on January 11th I got to record Craig Dreyer at Mighty Toad Studios in Brooklyn for the Kelle Calco EP. It was all done on tape with analog delay... tape machines were every where! So much fun!

2010 has been very good to me and Brooklyn Audio Rentals so far and I can only hope it continues!

Rentals for the month so far go tooooo: Le Poisson Rouge, Blue Dog/Byran Trenis, Rodney Whittenberg and The Dirty Peals / Tommy Mokas.

And it's not even the 15th yet!

Let GO!

Hug and kisses,

Valerie
