DEFTONES RECORDED ALBUM @ MORNING VIEW STUDIOS


Deftones records their 5th Studio album, Saturday Night Wrist released Oct. 31 2006, @ Morning View Studios.

Here is some information taken from Wikipedia.com

In early 2004, Maverick Records told Deftones they needed to head into the studio due to the, in their opinion, lackluster sales of Deftones' self titled effort. The band started spinning around ideas for a new album at their studio, The Spot in Sacramento, California. On April 30, 2004 they announced that they would be relocating to Malibu, California, to continue writing the album at the "Morning View Studios", which was made famous for being the place Incubus recorded their 2001 album of the same name. The band spent most of the summer there and came out with an album's worth of material which Chino described as "straight evil music."

Morning Side Studios ????


I guess. The television network Bravo had a t.v show called "Million Dollar Listings". It seems as if they got the studio name wrong. Oh well, in some way the show promotes the studio. This was filmed back in 2006. Currently on a webisode on Bravo's website.

MORNING VIEW SESSIONS


This is a video posted a while back featuring the band New Found Glory recording "Coming Home" (5th studio album) released September 19 2006.

BEHIND THE SCENES OF MTV CRIBS INCUBUS


Incubus introduced Morning View Studios on the hit show "MTV Cribs".

This video was an extra taken from the DVD Morning View Sessions.

To record the album, the band lived temporarily in Malibu, California, near a street called "Morning View Drive". Former bassist Alex Katunich (aka "Dirk Lance") noted that the band had previously "tried to do that for at least the writing portion of Make Yourself, but we didn't have enough clout at the time. When we were getting ready to write this one, we knew that we needed to get into a more creative place. The idea was to not feel as if you were driving [somewhere] to work on a record. You could just get up and it was a natural extension of your day."
Vocalist Brandon Boyd stated that the band "needed quick access to the beach because we're kinda spoiled brats sometimes. We need that outlet. At least I do. It's nice to write music all day and be like, 'I'm going to take a break, see you guys in two hours."
Out of the 30 songs the band sketched out for the album, 13 were recorded ending up on the final release. (Taken from Wikipedia)
