23 years building all sorts and kinds of music. Randy Hunicke continues to meld art and science, always enjoying the ride!

7/1/1994-7/1/2024

Whelp, there it is folks. 30 years making records in my little building in Barrington, RI.

I would like to personally thank every single band, artist, singer, drummer, guitarist, harp player, keyboardist, flautist, bassist, percussionist, highland piper, small piper, bodhran player, fiddler, banjo player, mando player, Bouzouki player, etc etc etc. you know who you are.

I can say without hesitation that EVERY SESSION taught me something. 7 mixing boards, 4 chairs, 6 tape machines, about a million microphones, and 4 computers later and I’m still loving it. I might not be here in 30 years but who knows. Old engineers/producers are stuck their ways.

Thank you for allowing me to help build your songs.

Counting down to July 1. That date will mark 30 years in my studio. Last night I found this while going through some boxes in the storage room. Seems like yesterday.

Spent some time with an old friend tonight. We go back 35 years.

Keeping the dream alive….

Keeping the dream alive….

The 25th Anniversary, Remastered edition of "Postcards" is upon us for release. In 1998, 12 songs were put out to the world via CD *only*...pressing vinyl was not a "thing" in that timeframe, and releasing media online was in its infancy, if you can believe it. The original source tape reels were discovered and converted right outside of Nashville. We've been able to sift through several unreleased tracks and restore them; Re-mixed with a more modern ear and re-mastered to current standards. The product will be released within days, digitally (on Bandcamp, then other media platforms)...followed by CD within the next week...and on vinyl by the time the new year rolls around. Hoping that you'll give a listen (or listen to this again if you had the original) SOON!
