Brian Charles and his friends at Zippah Studios are recording in the style of past hits, and then detailing how they did it. It's a weekly series. The latest post, in which they take an original song by Aaron Perrino (The Sheila Divine, Dear Leader) and arrange and track it in the style of Duran Duran's Rio is awesome!!!! Definitely watch the video. The song is great too!
