THE SERIES
Shaking Through is a recording and documentary series that explores the importance of creative expression and its impact on society through the perspective of people who dedicate their lives to making music.
THE VISION
With this series we are committed to enabling self expression and seek to inspire and educate the community about the creative process, and the art and science of recording music.

Members can download the multi-track raw audio and stems from these sessions to practice their mixing skills, make their own creative remixes, and share their work back with the community for feedback and support.
EDU
Along with tutorial documents and lesson plans, these tracks are made available to audio engineering and mixing programs in Universities and high schools all around the world.

10 years later!
To start off our 10th year, we are re-releasing the very first episodes of Shaking Through, from before it was even called Shaking Through! These four episodes, which we’re calling “Volume 0,” show our beloved home-base (Miner Street Recordings in the Fishtown neighborhood of Philadelphia) as it was 10 years ago…my how much has changed!
multitracks
remix access
These episodes were released before we started releasing the tracks from the sessions. Since then, multitracks have become a flagship for Weathervane, and a great way to bring together a community of remixers. We are happy to say that members will now be able to download these multitracks to remix and share back on our site. We hope you enjoy and happy mixing!
