  • This “Bad Romance” Cover Was Recorded Dirty — On Purpose

    A new project that I’ve been working on for a loop CD company is nearing the final stages of production. Files are being mixed and cut to be sent in. The company has heard one of the tracks already and are extremely excited. That’s a great thing.

    In the meantime, I’ve recently took a little time to create a rough and dirty demo of a Lady Gaga song called “Bad Romance.” You can view the video for it right now on YouTube. Jody Whitesides, Lady Gaga “Bad Romance” cover.

    Other good things are afoot and when they come to light I will share them.

    Stay tuned!

  • We Won ProMax. Then I Went Shopping at NAMM. Now It’s On.

    The new year is getting off to a bang. Robert Navarro and I are putting the finishing touches on a new project right after coming off the heels of winning the Audience Choice ‘Battle Trax’ live promo competition at the 2009 PROMAX UK show. A track we wrote and produced called ‘Ripper Deck’ is the winner.

    I’ve been extending feelers for new remixers to start work on another one of my new songs. Now that the library is getting underway, I’ll be putting my efforts into finishing all the songs I’ve currently got in pre-production for the next CD.

    NAMM show was a great time. New relationships have begun and I look forward to putting new toys to use on all the projects I’ve got coming on my plate.

    Stay tuned and may your year be off to a great start!

  • No Shows, No Problem: How My Sync Work Made 2009 a Silent Smash

    It’s been a crazy end to the year. A vast majority of the time spent between this update and the last update was in preparing a library of music…

    The cool news is a song I co-wrote with Robert Navarro has helped a video win the Audience award at the ProMax conference. Here’s a little better representation of it: “A track of music by Navarro & Jody Whitesides called ‘Ripper Deck’, produced for Boosey & Hawkes’ Strip Sounds Library, won the Audience Choice ‘Battle Trax’ live promo competition at the 2009 PROMAX UK show.”

    Additional bits of news include being hired to sing some movie trailers, finishing a song with Heather Bradley for a TV show and doing some cues for another trailer company.

    The performance schedule has been unreasonably light this year, but little elves are telling me that will change for next year in 2010.

    I hope you all have a great holiday season and New Year! See ya on the flip side.
