Today, MKE a Scene is grateful for Stillwave Studios
This entire album wouldn’t be possible without Alex Meylink and Erik Atwell. Alex didn’t even let me finish my sentence when I asked him to help with ‘Sleighin’ it’.
Stillwave Studios is an up and coming studio based in Walkers Point at the Factory, Alex produces the music and Erik masters them up. A little over a year and a half old, Stillwave has been pumping out the jams for Milwaukee bands like crazy. These fun and animated guys sure do have a good time in the studio, helping the creativity flow and the head bopping.
Recording groups like Devon Kay and the Solutions, Telethon, No Show Cadillac, and Hot By Ziggy, Stillwave Studios have a great repertoire that helps MKE music survive and thrive. Since opening, they have made some serious improvements in their space and their drum room is a beautiful piece of engineering.
Along with Stillwave, these guys have a good amount going on in Milwaukee. Both being members of Telethon, they also own and operate Halloween records. Another music minded business helping MKE artists. During the quarantine, Alex has also started his own Kambucha brewing company, Bolo Boy's Beverage Co. with two other partners.
Here at MKE a Scene, we can’t thank these two enough for their time and the effort they both put into ‘Sleighin it’.
Go check out their projects and make sure you give them a like!

Day 18 of 31!!!
Today, MKE a Scene is grateful for, The Door Stoppers.
“Then all the Reindeer loved him, and they shouted out with glee!!!!”
MKE a Scene is filled to the top with ‘glee’ over The Door Stoppers decision to cover ‘Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Old soul Aidan White, Stag Barber extraordinaire and frontman, leads the stoppers in this 40s swinging version of the little reindeer that could. Booming upright bass, cavalier vocals, gypsy jazz drumming, and a wailing saxophone that brings people to their knees, these guys can get hips-a-swingin’ and feet-a-steppin’.
With one of the most unique sounds coming out of Milwaukee, The Door Stoppers have a little something for everyone. Whether sipping back a cocktail and talking to a friend or going all-out on the dance floor, their range from gentle to swing can be used for any setting this great city has to offer.
They have a ton of amazing videos online, the one that sticks out the most is this swinging jazz piece (https://www.facebook.com/nationalrecording/videos/469954336866829/) from when they visited National Recording LLC - Milwaukee WI Recording Studio Services. We cannot wait for what is next from this talented group.
