Philosophy Professor by day - Bluesman recording artist at heart. Francis Schulte (right) found CAZADOR Recording this year and is about to begin his third tune with Producer/drummer Jimmy Hunter (left). His first tune, "Daybreak" was the last tune played on by bassist Bob Birch before is passing on 8/15/12. Schulte combines roots blues music and colors his progressions with lyrics that tell the story of his life and the people around him with Hunter's big studio production sound.
Dante Roze is an exciting new vocalist on the Hollywood scene. His tone and phrasing and interpretation of his music set him apart from so many other vocalists out there who just go through the motions of mere emulation of artistry. Roze is one of those artists who doesn't have to do a tune line by line in the studio to get a performance as his takes are crafted from within his natural ability to express and create his visions - not to mention his compelling live performance abilities. Dante transends race, music genre and type-casting with his music because his sound is so current, modern and accessible. Much success is predicted for this young man as he develops his music at CAZADOR Recording with Producer Jimmy Hunter.
6/7/12 -- German guitarist eclectic extrordinaire, Mattias Weisheit came to CAZADOR Recording to record an acoustic composition called "The Three-legged Dog And The One-eyed Cat" with producer/engineer Jimmy Hunter. Weisheit, known for (but far from being limited to) his gasoline flaming metal guitar playing with Sledge/Leather, received the free studio time as a promotional prize via the Music Connection Magazine's Friday Freebie contest. Hunter and Weisheit hopefully will do more projects in the future from this networking session at CAZADOR Recording.
Pop dance music Top 20 Billboard recording artist Jason Dottley comes to CAZADOR Recording (6/4/12) to do the vocals for his newest release with Jimmy Hunter on state of the art ProTools 10 HD6. Hunter also sang multi tracked background vocals on two of Jason's tunes. Another friend and guest artist,"BassTramp," also did overdub adlibs and freestyle compliments. Dance club scenes all over the world will soon be stepping to Jason's hot new tracks!
Good buddies for over 25 years, Ben Forat and Jimmy Hunter are back at CAZADOR laying tracks on a batch of Ben's fresh new tunes. With Hunter on drums and keys, Forat's guitars and vocals are a perfect combination for a musical merging with Bob Birch's (Elton John Band) pumping basslines. Ben's sound appears to have genre crossover potential combining rock, dance, and pop sensibilities which hopefully will get him the recognition he has deserved for so long.
TEE-M is an exciting pop singer/songwriter originally from Pakistan who recorded his spring 2012 project at CAZADOR with producer Jimmy Hunter. Tariq's vocal and guitar playing complemented by Hunter's drumming and Albert Reye's bass playing are the perfect combination for a fresh pop sound sure to get Tee-M's music the world wide exposure his sound now cries out for. 
Yes friends, that's Maxxxwell triple X. It's not a typo. This former Seattle based shredder / champion body-builder is currently mixing his CD at CAZADOR with Jimmy Hunter on Jimmy's new ProTools 10 state-of-the-art gear. Drummer Anton Peterson was instrumental in putting Hunter and Carlisle together. Maxxxwell is hoping for a spring 2012 release to his last efforts with a new female singer on board. This is a "must see" band.
Brett Baker is an amazing singer songwriter as well as a very successful actor. He is currently working on his first song with producer / drummer Jimmy Hunter at CAZADOR. The very unique song, The Man Who Lost His Land is about a white man raised by Native American Indians and has a haunting blusesy spaghetti western vibe which features guitar work from Brian Naughton and bass from Bob Birch on loan from the Elton John band. 
Producer Jimmy Hunter did drumming sessions for Crimson Crout dating back to the mid 70s. One day-out of the blue-Crimson called CAZADOR Recording for a re-mastering gig of some of his older tunes. The two decided to pursue a handful of this 6 foot 4 stove pipe wearing artist's very catchy and cleverly crafted country tunes. Some tracks were played by John Duva (former guitarist with Edgar Winter)
Other feature Paul Warren (guitar/Rod Stewart), Dan Schafer (guitar and pedal steel/Shania Twain), and Bobby Barth (guitar AXE/Blackfoot). This should prove to be a successful endeavor for Crimson, who is a veteran country personality, as he is long overdue for his musical ship to come in.
Ric Lashever is a Los Angeles long time singer/songwriter who is a root based Americana type artist and plays acoustic guitar on his recordings. Lashever is currently recording his 10 song CD at CAZADOR with producer / drummer Jimmy Hunter. Bassist James Rhodes just finished electrica and stand-up bass parts. Ric hopes for much successs in 2012 on this brand new realizaton of his tunes.
This CD is one of about 12 CD concepts currently being produced by Jimmy Hunter at CAZADOR on Ivy Lite Rocway. The single, "Your're A Dick," is a ground breaking, theshold pushing and daring concept. Ivy is a brilliant Hollywood prolific songstress. She has recorded over 80 songs at CAZADOR with plans to make rock musicals to each CD. It's only a matter of time now will some record company picks her up and finds what a treasure trove of music Ivy is. Rocway also has much hit activy on Youtube with her videos and this very visual performance artist is currently compiling her concepts into fully realized works from her massive catalog. 
Finally, Producer Jimmy Hunter got a chance to work with L.A. based session singer, Darci Monet by recording her first ever Christmas single, "Where Are You Christmas?" Money is one of the darling of the torch divas of the San Fernando Valley - well-repected and known for her skills. The two were introduced by a mutual friend, Hillorie McClarty, who is Hunter's Music Connection Magazine ad representative. Hopefully this will be the first of many more Darci Monet recordings to come at CAZADOR Recording. 
After ten years of email / internet networking, Ohio guitarist, Ian Ross has finallly done a recording with producer / drummer Jimmy Hunter at CAZADOR! The recording of Ian's tune, "Baby Baby Baby," came about following a live in-studio jam session between the two...
yes some cats still jam - - and can Ian Ross ever jam in that guitar of his! Ross' bandmate Jeffrey Long also came out and dropped piano and organ on the track with bass contribution by Bob Birch (Elton John Band). Hunter has high hopes for Ian and Jeffrey to come out to L.A. to pursue his options as a touring and studio musician. 
Mike and Jessica Boss came to CAZADOR a few days before their wedding to sing their wedding song, "Come What May" with Jimmy Hunter on his HD ProTools. Special thanks to L.A. vocalist Jon Sinclair for recommending that they come to this studio. Here is an excerpt from Mike Boss's email expressing his satisfied CAZADOR experience: "Heyyy Jimmy, I got all the files and I'm very happy with it. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Thank you for being so flexible and taking us in on such short notice, thanks for being so patient, thanks for being so nice and funny and thanks for doing lots of magic!! Good call about sending us two versions with 2db louder vocals. I hope we have more stuff in the future, because I really enjoyed that experience. :-D Thanks JON for recommending and connecting us with Jimmy! I'll send you guys some pics and video links after the wedding!"
