CAPTAIN HOOK - Head Engineer
CaptainHook comes to York
Street as the head engineer after a decade of running Dudley Studios out of
Hamilton. In that time he produced gold albums for Goodnight Nurse, and his own
band 48May. Bringing an all in one approach from pre production through to
mastering, Hook has also created albums for Falter, Arms Reach, All Left Out, Vegas
Brown, Stardrunk and the Hamilton County Bluegrass Band among others, as well as
various singles/E.Ps for Fast Crew, Simple Day, Doppler, Quarter2, My Life
Story, Radiator, Stu Strawbridge, Antagonist, and Kimbra, to name a few.
Hook was no stranger having
previously been called in for special projects by York Street, and has now made
the studio (and Auckland) his new home. He has worked with many artists in the
all important, but often overlooked pre production stages of recording. His
extensive history as a working musician, songwriter, and live sound engineer
gives him a sixth sense for what makes a song work. During his tenure
with 48May he has dealt with and made contacts with all facets of the
entertainment industry, from TV to Radio to major labels, and NZonAir. He has
also run a massively successful web site, which in today’s webcentric society
is often one of the most powerful tools available to artists.
Much
more than just an engineer and photographer, he is an incredibly experienced
and invaluable asset to York Street and the artists that visit.
Even though he has had a reputation as a ‘go to’ for pop rock, his tastes
spread much further and is capable of, and enjoys a wide range of musical
genres |
