Peter Carey's Rhythm Room

 

Peter has been doing this stuff for a long time.

He has been recording music and sound in general for many years. He started recording in the late sixties when he got access to an old reel-to-reel tape machine. That practice was extended when the first cassette machines began to be available. When the first four-track reel-to-reel machines by Teac and Dokorder arrived in the middle '70's everything opened up for tremendous creativity and countless hours where spent creating music. Eventually, along came the 8 track digital recorders and hard disk recording making professional recordings available as never before.

His musical journey began with guitar in 1969 or 1970. Rock and Blues expanded to classical guitar training in college, then came intense study in jazz guitar, then country, bluegrass and everything else. In college there were several years of studying flute, and piano. That expanded to playing bass, steel guitar, violin, drums and banjo. Over the years the time crunch has caused a return to guitar and bass for the most part, but the years of experience playing these instrument contributes immensely to the scope of recording and arranging skill needed in the studio. The keyboard facility often comes in handy.

Peter has recorded and/or produced and performed on projects in the worlds of Rock, Country, Classical, Bluegrass, Jazz, Smooth Jazz, Gospel, music from India and South America. Just listen to the samples.

Standing behind the technical skill acquired over the years of recording are degrees earned in the study of music: a Bachelors Degree in Music Education (when one couldn't get a "degree in guitar"), a Master of Music in Composition and Theory. He has taught at the college level since 1976. He has written and co-written many songs for clients, composed or arranged for jazz ensembles and written over a dozen original music and sound designs for college theatre productions.

The Rhythm Room has been in operation since '95 and has created many wonderful recording (don't forget to check the samples in the Listen section).

This constitutes a wide variety of musical experience that pulls together to help clients get a great final outcome.
