In August, I remember seeing YouTube links for the band , who recorded an entire song using only their iPhones and a few iPhone peripherals (in addition to their instruments and drum programs). Today, I received a press release indicating that the band have finished recording an entire 10 song album using the same setup. Intrigued, I contacted Stephen Poff, the mastermind behind the record, to get a few more details about the impetus and methods behind the project. The 10 song record was an intentional project by Mr. Poff that started on January 1, 2011 and was recorded, mixed and mastered right up until December 31, 2011. So it took a full year to complete this side project, amidst an undoubtably busy day job as a videographer/photographer at the agency LWT in Montgomery AL. As a former “four-tracker” myself, I have to say the results are surprisingly good. Poff clearly has a Read More

The North Point Community Church had a concert recently in Atlanta that featured a seven-man band made up of folks holding mostly iPads, but also a few iPhones. They run through Carol of the Bells using apps like SoundGrid, MelodyBell and iGog; Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree with Percussions, PocketOrgan, and Saxophone Musicofx; and Feliz Navidad with the help of I Am T-Pain, Bebot, and Guitarist. All-in-all, it’s a really great video, and can easily get any gadget geek in the holiday spirit. Yeah, okay, we get it, the iPhone can be used to create some decent music, but I can’t help but think any time a musician tries to do anything serious with one of Apple’s mobile products, they tend to come off as junky and gimmicky by anyone with professional equipment.
