About Us Johnny A Carter and Paul A Yeadon started working together 10 years ago as sound engineers and producers. Carter was previously a founder member of industrial noiseniks Pitchshifter (Peaceville, Earache and Geffen). Yeadon was in grunge rock firebrands Bivouac (Elemental and Geffen). Both have worked in studios worldwide: Carter from Parr Street, Liverpool to Eldorado Recording Studios, Los Angeles; Yeadon from Sawmills Studios, Cornwall to the Magic Shop, New York. Neither has studied sound engineering, they have amassed practical and creative skills over a 20 year period which has led to their output displaying a unique understanding of the balance between the musician and the recording process. MOOT HQ Is a three storey Victorian house in Nottingham, the first floor is a lounge (tea/coffee/pot-noodle/xbox) the second floor is two live rooms and the third floor (loft) is where the control room is located (see tech spec, microphone and instrument list). This unusual arrangement makes for an interesting and unique creative space - bands have often commented how it does not feel like a studio and has an un-intimidating and friendly atmosphere to work in
OTHER STUFF The Labels we have worked for include: In At The Deep End, Visible Noise, Earache, Reflection Records, Undergroove, 30 Days Of Night, Household Name, Copro, Golf, MidMarch Records, Seduction Records, Field Records This Is What They Say Be-hellmouth - 'Send More Paramedics' - "These two awesome mortals made us sound even sicker than we already are! Send More Paramedics swears by the Moot Group, hell, they've recorded nearly everything we've ever done...super cool guys, super pro sound wizards ... we'll get you next time bastards! SMP" Scout Nibblet – "Paul and Johnny are really really good and great. In 2000 they recorded a demo of me and kristian goddard playing songs in a studio and it turned out so good that i nearly cried. and a label signed us after hearing it. so they were a bit like angels. not only that but they are both a bundle of joy to work with. always in good spirits. and paul has really rosy cheeks, so i nik-named him "rosy-cheek-paul" Terrorizer Jan/Feb 2004 (8.5/10) - Certain questions need answering. Like, why, in 'Dawn Of The Dead', did main protagonist decide to turn on the escalators in the shopping mall? And, more importantly perhaps, how the blood-splattered hell has what's essentially a p*ss around hardcore-retro-zombie-thrash act made an album as magnificent as this? Send More paramedics debut 'A Feast For The Fallen', had it's moments yet was held back by a four-pack-of-Hofmeister-and-ten-Lambert-&-Butler production job that made it sound like a bad C90 copy. Here, however, the turning has taken place in spectacular fashion: with punchy production from the ever reliable Paul Yeadon and Johnny Carter, the 'medics' Cryptic Slaughter meets Tom Savini attack sounds positively ravenous for brains and human flesh. What's more, there's grisly tuneage aplenty here; 'Zombiecore' may be the first undead beatdown anthem in recently living memory, whilst 'Burning The Body' us a horrifying smorgasbord of Exodus crunchy riffage and shoutalong infectiousness. Run for your f**king lives, people, or at least get a good headshot on, cos' otherwise there'll be no stopping this bunch. (Jim Martin) - SMP also get mentioned in Ian Glasper & Pete Yardley's top five playlists (Deaf Metal) in this issue. Technical Stuff Recording Desk
