Kung Fu Cowboy being "Mixed" in the Recording Studio
American Zen's 4th album, LEVEL 4 = KUNG FU COWBOY PART 1: King Solomon's Temple, is being "mixed" in the studio.
Rehearsals |
The songs are written, rehearsed, and arranged before going into the studio.
A local pub has musicians hanging out and jamming throughout the week.
Performers include Flash from "Love Hurts" radio fame.

2009, Coyote jams in local bars... |
Basic Tracks |
Coyote records drums, guitars, bass, and vocals; Richard Connor, Record Producer
Impatient to wait for several musicians who offered to help and not finding any drummers to work with... Coyote gets a couple weekends of rehearsal, then sets up his drums and records two albums:
LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy Part 1: King Solomon's Temple
LEVEL 4 = Kung Fu Cowboy Part 2: 3rd Degree Master Mason |
2009 Summer, CV Park |
Overdubs |
Coyote records bass, percussion, vocals, electric guitar, slide guitar, and acoustic guitars in his upstairs apartment. The walls are very thin, so Coyote has only a few hours to record each day when no one is home below. |
2009 Autumn, Montrose Home Studio |
Mixing |
Richard Del Connor, Mixing Engineer, Recording Engineer, Record Producer
By mixing the album with headphones and small speakers, Coyote creates the best mix of his 30-year recording career.
|
2010 Winter, Montrose Home Studio |
Mastering |
Richard Del Connor, Mastering Engineer, Record Producer
Mastered using the Ozone software... Dick strives not to overdo the special effects.

2010 Spring, Shaolin Records Studio |

Masonic Kung Fu
Coyote performed his "MASONIC KUNG FU," for the Grand Secretary of the California Grand Lodge of Freemasons.
Grand Secretary Alan Casalou was puzzled that no one else had discovered this Masonic coding within my Lian Bu / Ling Po Kung Fu Form of Shaolin Chi Mantis.

SID'S PLACE poetry
I really enjoyed reading my poetry and lyrics in the book I wrote, SID’S PLACE.
It had been over a year since I’d read it, and I was moved...
Hey, I’m not just saying this because I wrote it! It’s a good book!

Coyote is still honoring his lost Alvarezy 12-string acoustic guitar with free songs.
Usually, we change the song each month, but Coyote wants these to be here for a little while.
