We're Stars

Hear 'n Aid by adadepot

Allright people, we've done it.....we got him! The final mix and mastering is finished!

Chester the Jester (CTJ) came up with the idea for this jam somewhere around december 2006 (!), it took us a loooooong time to really take some action. The
first actions were done around march/april of 2007 by CTJ and SAN: programming drums. In the meantime a few of the joiners decided this was going to be the
first jam with vocals.....yes I know, the original HAS vocals in it, but the adadepot members never did something with vocals. A drumtrack was programmed and
sent to others to start recording, up until october 2007. I was talking with SAN on MSN and I was like: "nice...., but why shouldn't we just gather some people
and lay down something awesome in the studio, a professional sounding recording.....or at least a try.... . So, SAN and I agreed that was a better idea,
which means everything had to be redone ! The redo was a trigger to find a bunch of singers to do the vocals in a professional way! Kim, Peter and I came up
with some people who were able to sing, awesome!

We did the JamNation jam in the meantime by the way, just to keep people busy :)

November 28th was THE day; we started around 16:00 in the studio, building up the drumkit, around 19:30 everyone was in: John (drummer), Oppy (guitars)
SAN (guitars), Peter H. Boer (bass) Arco (videos) and me (pretending to be an engineer...) We did around 6 takes I believe, all pretty awesome, but
there can be only one! The final result was something awesome, DIO....you can hire us, because we love it when a plan comes together!

After that moment the lead players had to redo their part and the vocalists started to do their part. Esther Ladiges, Michael Hos, Peter H. Boer
John Tol, Sabine van der Loos.....great takes! While we were gathering the parts one by one, the spirit at our side was 100% alive all the time, but on the
"other" side's people were backing out. A guy who was super enthusiastic at the start, still needs to get back to me, at least with an explanation for the dead silence
the last couple of months, on the side of Kim also strange things happened and people backed out.....not funny, but oh well.... . In the end ALL vocalists are Dutch!

To all of the haters that think their "expert critiques" mean jack shit; The tones, the mix, etc. these guys did is as good or better than what most major studios put-out using VERY expensive Neve, SSL, Trident, etc. consoles, Studer tape machines, Neumann tube mics and million $ rooms. The drum tones and guitar tones are pretty damn good, especially considering what these guys used to record it. I'm a retired recording engineer that worked on a LOT of 80's and 90's albums in major studios.

@beerdeddi At least two of the guitarists in this video kick Vivian Cambpell's ass. Dio had some pretty mediocre guitar on many of his albums. His vocals was all that was holding the tunes together.
