The engineer John Hoffman helped and guided us all along the way. John takes great pride in his craft and is a true, knowledgeable professional! The studio is like a portal that goes back in time to the 70's-80's! Great vintage vibe in the huge live room that makes it easy to relax and feel comfortable. But just because it's authentic vintage, don't let that fool you! The studio is very well equipped with an impressive selection of high end mics, preamps, compressors etc... As John worked, we felt very confident that we were in good hands! His skillful knowledge of the control room equipment quickly became apparent as he turned our newly recorded tracks into polished artwork. Recording at Ultrasuede was a great experience for us, we will definitely go back to complete the rest of the EP that we are working on. The rates here are extremely reasonable as well. So much was accomplished on this day, yet we never felt rushed or having to compromise. Excellent studio!!

Wowzers! Are you looking for a fun Saturday morning for the kids, the family, or even a student…read moregroup? THIS is the spot. Ms. Fumi and the team at Bi-Okoto are ready to lead you and your group (large or small) through a fun series of movements, play, sound, and singing. Stop telling your kids to sit still and not make noise. Here they'll be encouraged to get up, move around, make all the noise they can, AND work together while learning about West African culture and traditions. I took a small group of students from UC for a private lesson today, and they had an amazing time, dancing, drumming, and even singing! I'm incredibly impressed with the ability of the team at Bi-Okoto to draw everyone into the fun, and will absolutely be back with other groups in the future!

For over ten years, Bi-Okoto Drum and Dance Theatre has promoted cultural diversity and…read moreunderstanding of African heritage through music, movement and language. This troupe has toured over 39 States and countries such as South Korea , Italy, Germany, and France. Dance styles include apepe (from Ijebu, part of the Yoruba land), koroso (ceremonial dance from northern Nigeria), jameba (Nigerian tribal dance), and apeja (celebrates end of fishing festival in Nigeria). Tempo varies from subtle and sensual to boisterous and energetic but always entertaining. After seeing this group perform at the Fines Arts Fund Sampler Weekend, I understood that Bi-Okoto are teachers as well as artists. Audience participation is integral to their performances, from rhythmic clapping to responding to songs in Nigerian dialects (don't worry they'll instruct you what to say). If you have the opportunity to see Bi-Okoto, definitely check them out. A trip to Africa will never be so close to home.

Bass-ically speaking, these guys know their stuff!…read more When you walk in, you know you're in a die-hard Luthier zone. The smell of the wood, the shavings and sawdust on the floor, the parts hanging on the walls and the tables of work in progress says it all. I needed some tuning up on an Englehardt M1 3/4 upright of mine. I can play but I'm not a Luthier. My M1 is not the finest of basses. It's basic but solid. I knew that I wanted another set of strings on it and some tuning up of the bass itself. The previous owner seemed to get adventurous with some of his set up techniques and she needed a good professional workover. The boys cleaned up my fretboard, adjusted my sound pin, replaced my bridge with an adjustable used bridge and put on a set up used strings for me. The price for all of the work was about $600. Not bad. Now, if you're questioning the "used" bridge and strings.... A bridge for an upright bass is usually made from scratch. This can get a little pricey. The previous owner decided to "customize" the bridge that I had on the bass in a way that was not helpful. New strings can also get very expensive as well. I told the guys that I typically pluck but, on occasion, I like to bow. They set me up with a used set of flat strings that work beautifully for both. Not only that but the previous strings were chewed up and eating the fret board. Also, the former strings were more of a round wound type that were tearing my fingers up and would not bow for anything. The set that they put on there was perfect. In all, I was extremely happy with what they did. The best part is that they had it done in a just a few days. Now, this turnaround time won't always be that fast, but it was a huge bonus for me. Here's probably the best part of the experience. These guys are Craftsmen. They know what they're doing and they know how to explain what they're doing and why they're doing it. I learned more about the construction and inner workings of my instrument, during the drop off and pick-up, than I had ever learned before. They were extremely friendly and helpful. Overall a very educational experience. Would I go back? 100%. This is the number 1 place that I would recommend, as it was recommended to me, and I had a great experience. They are professional, friendly and do great work. Whether you have a $500 instrument or a $50,000 instrument, the Luthiers at The Bass Cellar will treat you and your instrument right.
