4/14/07:

The framing is done finally... It'll be ready soon... seriously!

3/10/07:

More pics are up now along with the studio floor plan. Sessions are now booking for May, so come see us at our booth at Bled Fest2007. A new Digi002/Command8/ProToolsRig is being configured presently. All three video monitors are up and running (mixing room, drum room, and recreation rooms all allow you to view the ProTools session as it's happening).

2/07/07:

The studio construction is going as planned. A few pics are posted of some of the mixing room framing and the mixing console. We're still on track for May timeframe for full functionality... Presently we are working on pre-wiring the mic feeds, headphone sends, framing a vocal booth and drum room, configuring a patch bay, installing video feeds for session monitoring in various locations, and drywall...

12/20/06:

The Website was down for a long time as the servers were switched... It's back up, but it's the same old site still... Eventually this thing's going to get a major makeover.

11/18/06:

Many thanks to At Midnigh't Dawning for selecting D-Prods Studio to produce a 4 song EP for them.

Fuller and Lion Hunts the Sheep are both presently finishing up their studio recordings.

Construction is underway on new isolation rooms and a new mixing room to allow D-Prods Studio to provide improved services.

9/10/06:

At Midnight's Dawning has enlisted the recording services of D-Prods for 4 new tracks plus some tweaks on 2 previous tracks. Watch for these tunes to be out in the next month or so.

7/19/06:

Check out www.myspace.com/stridententertainment for some of the shows for which I am running sound. Be on the lookout for some new tracks soon from various bands.

3/18/06:

3 doors are in place in the studio, but there are six more to go... Also new reference monitors are used for mixing and more disk space is now available for recording. It'll be at least another 6 months before the studio will be fully functional, but I'm mobile presently.

2/12/06:

New material is taking shape. Studio rec room walls are in place (a place for bands to goof off while the real work is done- HAHA). There is a long way to go, but the studio is materializing slowly.

11/4/05:

D has now made himself available to be able to put more efforts into sound reinforcement, recording, and percussion instruction. Also, shelved material from post Evidence writing may now find it's way onto CD. The Eclectic Collective may materialize after all...

Secret Agent Men have parted ways with D. They shall proceed with the blues experience, so look for them to play acoustic shows and the like.

Kudara had a brief run dishing out the metal with D over the past 6 months, but now they have taken it up a notch with a new drummer. Look for them to hit the road and lay down the serious carnage in the spring.

5/1/05:

Time flies when you're playing with 2 bands. Kudara is now performing live, selling merchandise (shirts, CDs, stickers), and recording a full length CD. Check the Kudara page for gig info, and all the details. Secret Agent Men is also working towards an original blues recording at this time.

3/1/05:

Although the previous side project did not materialize, D is now working with a new group called "Kudara". Look for us in another month...

5/10/04:

D-Prods is now working on a side project with some bad axe musicians, who helped tremendously with "Evidence" back in 2002. The new jams are looking promising. SECRET AGENT MEN is also hard at work. More will follow...

11/27/03:

Happy Thanksgiving. At this time, D-Prods is updating the website to contain more detailed information about SECRET AGENT MEN. SECRET AGENT MEN is now seeking gigs, and hopefully will be in your town soon! Stay tuned...

D just went to see Virgil Donati giving a drum clinic at Motor City Guitar, in Waterford, MI. Absolutely incredible. What an amazing drummer. So much to learn, so little time...

6/25/03:

D-Prods is proud to offer a set of rudimentary lessons recorded on CD with accompanying charts for only $10. Also, now, with a half hour lesson for only $15, the CD and charts are included for no extra charge! Call today to get started on the path to percussion.

6/24/03:

I recently had the pleasure of jamming in Regensburg, Germany with a supremely HEAVY band called Instinct. It was a real good time, and I want to thank everyone for allowing me to participate. Any time you are over here in Michigan let me know!

4/30/03:

Be it known that SECRET AGENT MEN are prepared to infiltrate your venue. Please contact our agent Jeff "Itchy Fingers" for info on what it takes to ensure that SECRET AGENT MEN will be present at the time and place of your choosing.

3/5/03:

The site has been mildly updated, and hopefully it will keep improving. D is happy to report that he has hooked up with some fine musicians for a go at some tunes. The group is still adjusting the dials, and plan to play out as soon as a respectable show can be assembled. So far the direction appears to be a jazz/blues/classic rock sound with hooks thrown in here and there. As things progress, this page will keep tabs on the goings on, so stay tuned...
