The End of the Beginning...

The End of the first Maya Productions trip.....

Well I rapped up my trip with an asado (BBQ) at Abel’s house. He took a good 8 hours of his time to sit me down and explain the origin and elements of the true Argentine Tango, as well as explain a couple of his own songs. It was amazing. He also let me videotape him teaching me all the different strumming styles of Argentine Folkloric music…. Priceless.. It was a night I’ll never forget.
Before leaving the country, I tried to say good bye to as many friends as I could but it’s amazing how established you can get in 2 months,,, ha ha, I’m still calling people.. Everybody was so nice to me…. As far as the Artists go, each one had at least a Master copy of their project as well as a DVD with all the raw data from the project.

Run Down:
-Spent 2 months and 2 weeks in Argentina with a 6 day detour in Brazil.
-Recorded 6 Full CDs ranging from 7-16 songs each…Actually 8 disks total if you include the Cultural Event recordings in Rosario, and a live album I did for my friends band, but those will not be seen on the Maya Productions site as they do not fall into the category and requirements of the project
-Almost done with the Graphics for each project. Basically I tried to create a template for their CD covers that incorporates pics from the recording sessions and elements of their music.

Thanks to everybody that followed the trip and my apologies for not always being on top of the blog.. The Web site will be updated with in the next month so everyone can enjoy this amazing music that was recorded…………..

Hi, Steve,
I have very much enjoyed reading this journal since our e-mail discussion regarding "Opening Doors". I am now really looking forward to hearing the music that you have gathered on this project. Also, you must share some of the 8 hours of Abel's Tango seminar! Blessings to You, Gina

I have the great honor and pleasure of meeting this great musician. Besides his talent, I also find a great artist and worker, with very clever ideas and great spirit. Such a guy is an inspiration for those who think that there is more than meets the eye (or the ears, in this case).
Now go and buy his album!
Bless you brother
