about

Reindeer Tribe is a collective of musician friends that live in Southern California. We gather for a few days to record an album of original Christmas songs, and some re-tuned carols. Each year we have a theme of sorts, and this year we had a double challenge. First we wanted the vibe to be 80's synth pop, new wave, cheesy 80's etc. So we dragged out all the drum machines and synths and noise makers that pushed the sound in that direction. The second challenge was that we captured all of the sound of the instruments with one stereo mic in the middle of the room. We had to balance the levels of all the sounds on the spot and capture the performance live. We tracked vocals separate for those curious.
