My company, Recording Boot Camp, is producing three “retreats” in May of 2018 at a beautiful rustic resort in the mountains of West Virginia. Not unexpectedly there is a little bit of confusion about the retreats, so here is a little information about each.
These retreats are NOT my 6-day Recording Boot Camp programs. They are each their own entities and are a very different experience. We have just a few spots left in each of the programs. -Ronan
Mountain Recording Retreat: May 6-11, 2018
The Mountain Recording Retreat is intentionally not like anything else. Now in its third year, it is about community, music, and great sound. It’s an opportunity to spend a week learning, listening, and relaxing in a community made up of world-class mentors and fellow music makers. We will have daily recording workshops, listening panels, DIY gear building workshops, and even Bingo! Mentors include Ronan Chris Murphy (King Crimson, Gwar, Mafia III), John Rodd (World of Warcraft, Elysium, Starwars Battlefront), Joe Gilder (Home Studio Corner), Brad Smalling (Evergroove Studio) and Peterson Goodwyn (DIYRE). There are $125 discount codes available. Contact us to get the code. recordingretreat.com
Game Audio Retreat: May 6-11, 2018
The Game Audio Retreat is happening at the same time as the Mountain Recording Retreat, but is an entirely separate curriculum. This retreat is advanced professional training in video game sound design and audio implementation, primarily taught by one of the top game sound designers in the world, Mark Kilborn (Call of Duty, Borderlands). Previous experience in game sound is required to enroll. gameaudioretreat.com
Mountain Songwriting Retreat May 15-18, 2018
The Mountain Songwriting Retreat features Dave Nachmanoff, performing/recording artist and longtime collaborator with Al Stewart. This retreat will focus on the craft of writing and provide opportunities for feedback and collaboration. This retreat is open to songwriters of all levels (including no experience). Producer Ronan Chris Murphy will also be teaching some of the workshops. mountainsongwritingretreat.com
