Chicago's Alternative Pop-Rock

Growing up watching his father perform, Krason developed a love for music and a knack for the craft and discipline of songwriting. Written and recorded all on one day in November of 2001, he released his first album, “Cold In Your Head.” The “release” was only to relatives and close friends, but it was received with ecstatic acclaim. The critical uplift coaxed his songwriting practice into an addiction and a compelling drive to compose a few songs a day with school and work allowing… But still, owning only one microphone and merely using the primitive “Windows Sound Recorder” program included with Windows 98, Krason didn’t have the greatest options and outlets to produce quality recordings. And, with the passing of his father at age 13, financial capital was slim-to-none. Professional studios, with their high prices for production, mixing, mastering, and the sort, were out of the question. So, without many alternatives, a home studio had to come in the works… Record Dogma was born. Started in 2001, Krason’s scrappy, crappy computer-based home studio has developed through innovational recording technique and continual, yet gradual, hardware/software upgrades. The savings from every gig and album sale was collected and invested into buying better gear. Now, after nine albums and thirty one internet radio singles, this young and blooming singer/songwriter has found and maintained his niche in the music world. Remaining an industry outsider, the realization is clear that commercial quality production is not accessible coming straight out of a budget basement studio. Still, the music does its best with the means available to thrill, exhilarate, question, and inspire. Much of Peter’s work can be found on the internet. And although his studio upgrade to Pro Tools 7.3 and the Digi 003 recording hardware interface have practically bankrupted him, most of his music can still be found and downloaded for free on select sites. Still, if the spirit moves you to donate anything to his recording efforts, you can contact him about equipment or buy one of his songs at http://www.stage.fm/petekrason . Thank you and enjoy the music!
