Clinics will be taught by Bryan Stratman who founded Capricorn Studios in 2000. Bryan is an accomplished engineer, producer, musician, and instructor. He will share his technical audio recording skills and his real-world studio know-how to give students a valuable learning experience.
Bryan has music in his blood. His grandfather, an accomplished jazz saxophonist who played professionally for over 50 years, introduced Bryan to music at age 4. Bryan chose the piano and electric keyboard as his main instruments of choice, studying Berkley music theory with a private instructor at a young age. At age 15 he bought his own 4-track tape machine and has been recording ever since. In November of 2000, Bryan built Capricorn Studios, a thriving 1300 sq ft custom recording facility in downtown San Diego, where he has been perfecting his recording, producing, and musicianship for the past 6 years. He has worked with national bands such as The B-Side Players, Brazilian Girls, Fountains of Wayne, Cattle Decapitation, Killah Priest (of Wu Tang Clan), and has performed voice-over recording for Comedy Central, Discovery Channel, M&M Mars, Subaru and others. Bryan's own band, Crash Encore has received local acclaim and success becoming a nominee for Best New Band at the 2007 San Diego Music Awards.

Bryan's Philosophy: "I bring to the classroom real world examples and techniques that I have learned over the past 10 years to give my students the tools they need to focus on what matters: the music."
