COBU, Drury Design Dynamics –  Prerecord for IBM IOD Conference

Producer/Director David Darby of Drury Design Dynamics brought in members of the virtuoso taiko drum ensemble COBU to prerecord music for an IBM IOD Conference.  In the show, the live COBU interacts and plays an intricate choreographed number with their prerecorded selves, who appear on huge video screens above and flanking the stage.

“If you’ve never seen a COBU performance, it’s a fascinating mix of precise drumming and demanding choreography, as the agile performers whirl and leap from drum to drum in tight synchronization,” Gordon notes. “COBU is under the direction of founder Yako Miyamoto, who also appears in Stomp.”

Veteran stage and screen actor Len Gochman (Finian’s Rainbow, Law and Order, “A Little Night Music”, “Don’t Drink the Water”, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying”, “Somerset”, “Another World”) called on JGMP to to consult on converting the study in Gochman’s Carmel NY home to double as a voiceover studio.  JGMP took a modular approach, specifying a modest core system that can be expanded and refined as needs and uses for the setup develop.  The system is scheduled to be installed in December.

JGMP hosted engineer Sean McClintock, who was mixing live tracks of the Pedro Martinez band for producer Paul Siegel of Backbeat Productions.

The mysterious investment-banker-turned-videographer, L. McDuff, recorded another of his financial world-oriented You Tube parodies, this time based on the Journey song “Don’t Stop Believing”.  The song was recast as an overview of technology companies duking it out over mobile apps.  The “astonishing” vocals were performed by Neal Coomer.  The video, “Don’t Stop Competing”, can be viewed here HERE.
