Professional Audio With A DIY Feel
Recording should be an extension of songwriting, coming straight from the heart.
We’re here to help you make that happen.
Starting from the basement of a home in Brooklyn, we’ve moved out to a larger space with a lot of added flexibility. Though the space is more professional than before, we aim to continue our DIY ethos with a personal touch. From recording to mixing, you should never have a bad time with audio. We've spent over ten years learning this craft and one thing is for sure: a friendly face can make the difference between a song and a hit.

Discography
Everything engineered and mixed by Eamon McMullen unless otherwise noted.
Gibbons & Mosey Jones - Be Kind, Rewind (2023)
I was always irked that we'd recorded the Gibbons EP back in 2018 and did not recording their song "Air Bud" for it. But because the song wasn't released, I managed to finagle a split between Gibbons and Mosey Jones. It righted a wrong and made both songs from both artists better than ever. The only bad part is how long it took to come out!
Mosey Jones - FOMO (2023)
This song was written pretty quickly for RealoEmo's ESFEPIII Compilation. Is it wrong to gush over your own tone? I really like it lol. Turns out I quite enjoy blending microphones!
Gibbons - Fuck Around & Find Out (2022)
It feels like Gibbons was away FOREVER, but technically they're not that many releases ago for us. Thanks, COVID. In any case, this was once again a great time to experiment with making a two-piece band sound full. This time, I worked on layering; mics on various cabs for the same take. The guitar wound up huge!
Pancho Villa's Skull - Sin Agua (2022)
Cajon is a surprisingly complex instrument to record, but the end result ends up so good. Really love how full this mix wound up with a two piece playing instruments/a style I'm not well versed in recording. Also, the school PA mic was a fun touch!
Jekssaira - Becoming Well Again (2022)
This is the first released album that was recorded 100% within the new studio! It was a great one to start with, everyone was very nice as I was still getting used to the new workflow. Super happy with how it came out! Recording drums in a room meant for it is... Really nice.
The Loneliers - Enough Already (2022)
This whole EP had a rocky production; it began right before COVID hit. That means it was recorded in four different places: Our original studio (the last release recorded there!), my bedroom, Jessie's bedroom, and finally, at The Coop. For as crazy as the recording process was, I think it sounds stellar!
Jekssaira - I Want Your Love (2020)
This song was recorded during COVID, and no one was comin' into the studio. Instead, I helped from afar giving recording tips, and then mixed the song in the end. The whole thing was recorded with a Shure SM57 and some weird "DR-LVX2" mic that shouldn't have worked as well as it did.
Gibbons - Gibbons EP (2019)
Awesome two piece. I learned a lot about how to fill out the space with only 2 instruments here! I didn't record the guitar for "Ya Know Its Cold Outside".
The Pigeon Pack - Fireside Reflections (2018)
A Winter Compilation with a ton of sick bands. I recorded tracks 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 11, 15, and the vocals on track 4. I also did a touch of mastering on all tracks just to ensure all songs were at least kind of the same level without ruining the integrity of the original recording.
Jekssaira - Jekssaira (2018)
Jessie originally wanted to do a full album that was half slow acoustic songs, and half instrumental rock songs. She eventually decided to split them and only record one during these sessions. This is the acoustic side.
The Skates - October (2018)
A fun novelty song about a Halloween party gone wrong. We had a ton of fun recording the sound effects for the outro, and we probably spent just as much time on them as the song itself. Release the SFX only cut!!
The Loneliers - Sunblock (2018)
We did a quick recording of this single for a concept video/PSA they had. The whole thing was a wild rush of productivity.
Mosey Jones - Seldom (2018)
A little acoustic EP where I tried out some new ideas and played with layering. Had a lot of fun with it!
Archer Violet - Gemini (2018)
Kamikaze Pilots should probably be the biggest radio hit I've recorded to date.
The Skates - The Big Rip (2017)
Recorded partially with Frisco Granda in his basement. Finished and mixed in mine!
Mosey Jones - Certainty (2016)
For the second MJ LP, I really took my time messing with every detail. I even took off work!! This is where I felt like I really started understanding mixing drums, and I think from here on there's a lot more consistency in the drums.
The Loneliers - American Dream (2019)
Officially released in 2019, this acoustic track was actually recorded during the Best Night Ever sessions. However, the band decided the album didn't need an acoustic track!
The Loneliers - Best Night Ever (2016)
What do you mean they actually came back for more? This time I did my best to right my wrongs by them, and it came out pretty well!
SemiCrcls - Two And Five (2016)
This EP took forever to record due to scheduling conflicts. SemiCrcls used a live recording of one song instead of the one recorded. I’m not bitter!!
Ministry Üf Metal - 4 A Hell Bruisin’ (2016)
Peak MÜM recording. For now. (We don’t talk about mum 5 tho)
Blame Mercury - Demo (2016)
A two song demo to put out before they recorded their EP. They’d already booked time with Jason LaFarge for the EP so I was out of the running. I’m not bitter!!
The Lost Youths - Demo (2016)
Recorded a four track demo with this band over a weekend. The guitarist was slated to mix the record. I think the bassist quit the band within a month after, and the band’s been pretty quiet since, so the record has never seen the light of day.
Ministry Üf Metal - Thankskilling (2015)
The snare got messed up on this one but what are you gonna do?
Culturally Compulsive Disorder - A very CCD Halloween Special (2015)
A three track cover album created for Halloween. All three songs are different styles which made this an interesting thing to work on.
The Skates - The Skates (2015)
This EP was recorded before most of the songs were finished. The band spent the day with Billy Polo recording whatever they came up with, and then the tracks were brought to me. I recorded some extra things to finish up before mixing.
Vagabon - Persian Garden (2014)
Vagabon first went to a studio in Dobbs Ferry to record, but after recording the drums and some vocals decided against continuing there. I finished the recording process and went on to mix it.
Ministry Üf Metal - In Mumoriam (2014)
Two MÜM albums in one year, I tell ya what. Same one take style but improved dramatically.
Mosey Jones - Spinning (2014)
Mosey Jones visited Drexel Studio and recorded this EP in 24 hours with Vince Santillo and Greg Monaco. The tracks were then sent to me for mixing. I also re-recorded some guitar and vocal tracks, along with some additional tracks to fill out the sound.
Ministry Üf Metal - Black Magic (2014)
Recorded live in one take, the first MUM album is a mess of a metal experiment.
The Loneliers - The Loneliers (2014)
My first taste of really recording someone else’s band. I felt good about myself and my abilities, but over compensated with the low end. Some wonderful music in there though!
Vagabon - Vermont (Demo) (2014)
Recorded this demo track with Vagabon pretty quickly one day, did minimal mixing and put it up on bandcamp.
Mosey Jones - Skankster Demo (2012-2014)
Currently my only foray into hip hop styled beats. These are silly songs made largely as jokes, so production wasn’t the main concern. Made over the course of a few years on a one-off basis.
Mosey Jones - Swell (2012)
After Espionage Act, I began doing some research into how to actually record music. I got myself some CAD drum microphones and an SM57 and went for it. I still made some crazy mistakes, like thinking the snare was meant to only be in the high end. Reviewers called the album delightfully lo-fi. I took offense.
Mosey Jones - Espionage Act (2011)
My first step in the world of audio engineering. I used four Samson Q4 mics to record everything. I had no training or anything in proper techniques and just went with what felt best.
Gibbons & Mosey Jones - Be Kind, Rewind (2023)
