On Saturday, August 18th Michael Berlin, Steve Scalfati and Kip Beelman loaded into Studio X, Seattle’s one and only world-class recording studio, to record a mens choir for a new venture with creative being headed up by Phil Angel, friend of IQ Beats and the head of the UKRD radio group.
It’s called Savebuckets.com and it’s basically a shopping website where users can find the lowest available price on items as well as reviews… Much like Cnet or PriceGrabber. It doesn’t really matter what the website is for since all we were concerned with was working with Phil to realize what he envisaged for the project.
By working with engineer Josh Evans so that Kip could be free to be the photographer, having David Sabee of Seattle Music handling production coordination and with Steve’s score prepared by copyist Robert Puff, the session went off without a hitch.

Yup. There was some momentary confusion about the hush-hush factor. It’s all good now baby.
