the Sonic Fedora: General Info

Member Since	8/7/2005
Band Website	www.benstrano.com
Influences	Ok... I am gonna do Scott's "10 Songs randomly chosen by iTunes" thing. This might be embarasing... 1 - Fiona Apple - I Know - When The Pawn Not sure if a more haunting song exists. 2 - Idle Jets - Genious Of The Obvious - Atomic Fireball Buds of mine... I love these guys. First time I listened to this record I put it in at the studio and arrived at my apartment three minutes later. I stayed in the car for another forty in awe. 3 - Norah Jones - Sunrise - Feels Like Home Feel good song... amazing piano sound... great perc 4 - Fiona Apple - Get Gone - When The Pawn My computer is feeling morose. 5 - Procal Harum - Grand Hotel - Grand Hotel Love me some epic classical rock baby!!! 6 - Aerosmith - Write Me A Letter - Aerosmith If you can tell me the verse lyrics... I will by you coffee... this track rocks. 7 - Etta James - Something's Got A Hold On Me - Greatest Hits One of the worst two track editing jobs ever... I LOVE IT!!! 8 - Kate Campbell - Would You Be A Parson - Sing Me Out Best sounding rekkid I ever done did... maybe. I don't really like this song though. Chris' background vocal is haunting. 9 - Natalie Stovall - No Other - Late Night Conversations I swear my iTunes has more than just stuff I worked on. Greg Morrow is a God... the vocal distortion on "get" of verse one still drives me nuts. 10 - Sheryl Crow - Hard To Make A Stand - Sheryl Crow I loved this tune the second the guitar came in... loved it more when I heard the slap on the vocal. Great chorus!!
Sounds Like	Joe Hardy... ok I said it I steal all my shit from Joe Hardy. I don't sound exactly like him because he is just better than me.

About the Sonic Fedora

Well it has been far too long since I updated my bio so here goes.

I am one of those people who loves awkward moments and my favorite thing to do is create them. People either love it or hate it, therefore they either love me or hate me. I tend to answer "I know" when complimented. Some would call that cocky... I prefer to call it confident. I am opinionated about most every aspect of life... if I don't have an opinion about it I honestly could not give a fuck either way.

I help people make records for a living. It is a life of many peaks and valleys but I am pretty sure I wouldn't have it any other way.

The following is a list of things that I could speak as an expert witness in court for.

1. Asking people if that was a random person on the phone when it was obviously their wife.

2. How to over compress... well... anything

3. Lighting a girl's cigarette

4. Making everyone at a table question why they are sitting with me.

5. Following 4 with making everyone realize why they are sitting with me and laughing.

6. Properly recording drums

7. Improperly programming drums

If you are going to friend request me make sure I actually know you. My friends list contains only my friends and bands that I have worked with. A few of them are bands that I would really love to work with... so unless you are a band that I would really love to work with or a friend of mine... don't bother.

If you are wondering why I just deleted you from my friends list you fill out to many bulletins and I can't take you answering who your best friend is or what color socks you are wearing one more time.
