The Struggle is Real (Episode #9 – Ken Rutkowski, Outer Limit Recording Studio)

Musicians Ryan Gurnett and Dennis Reed Jr talk about the good, the bad and the funny of being a DIY musician in Western New York. The boys visit Ken Rutkowski of Outer Limit Recording Studio to discuss what a successful recording session requires, the time Eminem came over, and the upside of having a mic booth so quiet you can hear your own murderous thoughts. Ryan and Dennis play Real, Not Real: Studio Edition, and we introduce “The Guitar Center Minute.”
