He is the founder and chief engineer of Aura Sonic, a mobile and location production company in New York.[1] He has worked on 17 Grammy Award nominated albums, three of which have won.[2]

Early Years

In 1976, Remote began his music career in New York City’s nightclub scene, recording live acts at clubs including Max's Kansas City, CBGB and Irving Plaza among others. Bands he recorded include Blondie, Cherry Vanilla, John Collins Band, Johnny Thunders and The Heartbreakers, Klaus Nomi, Mink DeVille, New Wave Vaudeville, New York Dolls, Suicide, The Cramps, The Fast, The Ramones, The Voidoids, and Wayne County.[3]

Aura Sonic

In 1977, Remote established Aura Sonic to handle a variety of his recording duties: live albums, live television and radio broadcasts, and film and video concert remotes.[4] Not content with operating a conventional recording studio, he decided to create a studio on wheels so he could go to the client instead of the client going to him. Most of what he learned about audio did not come through formal training but through hands on experience.[5]

Selected artists recorded, engineered, mixed and/or produced by Remote include Aerosmith, Allman Brothers Band, Beck, The Beach Boys, The Black Crowes, Blink 182, Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Carlos Santana, Chick Corea, Coldplay, Donald Harrison with Ron Carter & Billy Cobham, Eddie Palmieri, Frank Zappa, Green Day, Hall & Oates, Herbie Hancock, James Blunt, Jane’s Addiction, Jeff Buckley, Jim James, Joshua Redman Quartet, Lenny Kravitz, Marcus Miller, Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Wonder, Stone Temple Pilots, The Avett Brothers, The Police, Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue and Wayne Shorter.[2]
