Be Creative
Geejam Studios is the pre-eminent international residential recording studio in the Caribbean.
The studio now has some really cool packages that they’re delighted to be able to offer guests.
The property is, at certain times during the year, booked in its entirety by a variety of very well known bands, who enjoy the unique environment of Geejam, to write and record their albums.
Geejam has often been asked by guests who love music, how they could record themselves, when they are neither a professional, nor a career artist/musician. However, as the nucleus of the Geejam team sports an A&R background (talent scout/artist development), they lend their advice & expertise to each session, in a totally professional manner.
You may want to write & record a new song, or have well known local artists & musicians come in and record it - or perhaps you simply want to record your dream guitar solo, with a creative production team that Geejam customizes for your project, to meet your goals. One thing's for sure - the team you will have around you, have enjoyed platinum success, and many years of experience in the Music Industry tucked under their belts!
So they thought it would be cool if they offered this to you as an option, whilst you are enjoying your holiday!
If this is something you want to do when you stay at Geejam, see below some of the questions that you will be asked. They would then have discussions with you, so that they can go into pre-production, prior to your arrival.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q : Will I sound just like my favorite artist?
A : No, but all the same techniques that went into recording your favorite artist will be exactly the same for you, minus the booze, sex, and scandals.
Q : Can’t I just record myself singing on my Karaoke Machine?
A : Yes, but you know what that will sound like? Like you sang into a Karaoke Machine!
Q : Can I go into a Recording Studio to work on a project like artists do?
A : Absolutely, again minus the booze, sex, and scandals (unless you want that!)
Q : I’m sure if I do this, I will be rushed to hurry up and finish, right?
A : No, it’s your session, and your project. Most artists work round the clock when inspiration hits, so why should it be any different for you?!
Q : So I just come in and sing to pre-made instruments right?
A : Yes, if you like, or work hard like everybody else - start from scratch, and work those musical chops of yours - your choice.
Q : I’m in, how do we start, what are the next steps, who is involved?
A : There is a creative meeting to decide your goals and everyone's role - Producer/Musicians, Backing Vocalists/Writers. Next comes pre-production. This is when you select the team that you feel most creatively comfortable with. You then select the days and time of day you want to work. (Several famous artists can’t sing a lick, until the sun goes down!)
