The Rhythm of Connection

David was a co-founder and co-owner, along with Richard Barron, of Boulevard Sound, a recording studio located in the first commercial building built in Hollywood. He engineered and mixed recordings that were in the Disney film “Honey, I Shrunk The Kids,” a song called “Fire” by Planet Ten. And in the film “Deep Impact,” directed by Mimi Leder and starring Robert De Niro and Elijah Wood, a song by Larry Dean that Larry had co-written with Larry Weiss called “Angel Day” was featured. Larry Weiss had previously written “Rhinestone Cowboy” for Glen Campbell. David also recorded and mixed Rodney O and Joe Cooley’s first album, “Me and Joe,” which included such fan favorites as “Cooley High,” “This Is For the Homies,” and “Everlasting Bass,” which, in 2015, Rolling Stone named one of the top 20 greatest West Coast Rap Songs released before N.W.A.’s 1989 album “Straight Outta Compton.” Six years later, he recorded and mixed Rodney and Joe’s “Humps For The Boulevard,” one of two singles that were eventually released from their “F__k New York” album and were both in the Top 100 singles chart at the same time from their own label. A feat which, up to then, had not yet been accomplished. Both David and Richard Barron had the opportunity to work with Edgar Winter while Edgar recorded the songs for the feature film “Netherworld” at Boulevard Sound. David recorded and mixed most of Paul Zollo’s first solo album “Orange Avenue,” including the duet Paul sang with Art Garfunkel “Being In this World.” David also contributed vocals and piano to that album. 

Currently, David lives most of the time in Merida, Mexico with his wife Hilary, where he continues to have too much fun playing music, mostly with local musicians whom he claims, no doubt, are some of the best musicians on the planet. They occasionally spend time in their original hometown of Los Angeles, CA, visiting a quickly expanding family and friends.
