Things are begining to sound how they should. Yesterday we got back down to Brighton Sound and fired up the mics for a day of vocal harmony and some rough mixing. I think we’re ready to put a clip up here soon. Stay tuned. No sign of the studio mouse today.
Have no time right now but here’s how we are doing – all lead vocals complete aside from 2 songs – there may be some edits. A load of backing vocals done by Andi and Dana. It’s all sounding wonderful. Yes yes. Back in next friday, mixing in January at the Hangar. Can’t thank my ...
Today is strictly vocal. No muscial accompanyment recorded today (aside from a little bouzouki from Jack).

Unexpected day back in Brighton Sound with Dana today. Managed to crow bar it into the deeply disturbing schedule of work. Threw a few guitaros in the car and we got a few things done: feedback etc… on the Theme, picking guitar on the untitled song (confessed again) along with a few layers of droning ...
A week in the studio left me ready for this. Nothing nothing nothing. Now i’m ready to go back. Thank you sierra november glory. Andi is really sleeping.
I’ll finish this more later but just so you know Saturday consisted of an hour of guitar on Colder before switching to vocal mics and many peoples. We capture Lee, Andi and myself on Sign of life and everyone on what is currently called King’s Theme. Everyone means – andi, ro, ski, dana, lee and ...
