Abstract expressionist painter, Jackson Pollock once said, “Every good artist paints what he is.” Neon is a direct reflection of its designer, Chris Zane. Albums like Matter and When the Night by indie rock legends, St. Lucia demonstrate Zane’s unique producing and mixing style.
Neon is full of drums with beautiful ironies and great stories. For example, some of the drums are old but explosive. Some of them are tight and dead without being meek or quiet. The centerpiece of the library is Zane's custom Eames kit handmade by Bay Stater, Joe Mac.
And then of course, there's all the gear: vintage Neves, Pultecs, API, Chandler, old Neumanns, AKG as well as some amazing UAD plugins. All of this comes together to serve as a tasteful tribute to the live room in NYC where Zane has made every record for over 16 years. And if all of this isn’t enough, Neon features performances by That Sound Icon drummer, Paul Mabury.
