Otto D, Making Music Live On-Line & On TV.





Every Wednesday evening at TheRecordingArtist.com, my members challenge me to make the best record I can with the song of their choice from an up-and-coming artist.  What's the challenge? I only get 2 hours!


Sometimes it's a great band with a wonderful song so I have time to dive into the nuance of their emotional intention. Other times it takes all the patience and talent my 30+ years of experience can muster just to make a record that doesn't bother me much.


Then I make a TV show about it called "The Recording Artist". Watch the TV show here, on our ROKU Channel or on Amazon Prime.
