We are getting close to shutting down the recording progress for the summer, due to house moves. Finally after almost ten years together, we will be living in the same town.
Hopefully, this might mean the return of us playing live, even if only at a few local open mics. What this will mean is no more 36 mile round trips to recording sessions. So less time driving, more time writing and recording.
EP7 is almost three quarters there. Two songs ("Love is Overdrive" & "Epic Song") are ready for mixing, (other than possibility of adding additional backing vocals to one if we need it).
The third tune (as seen in the images) is making good progress and in a first for us, uses some royalty free samples. In addition, there isn't a guitar in sight either.
Hopefully this will be ready for mixing in the week.
On every EP there is a difficult track. This appears to be track 2. This is currently called "Drowning in Air".
It started as an electronic track. Which wasn't working, it is currently turning more orchestral, which in turn doesn't work at the tempo of the electronic track, (at which the vocals were recorded).
So a complete re-recording will be in order during the band downtime by me(given he has to sing it).
So there we have it. Close but no cigar. We have possibly one more recording session, before we take a break. Hopefully, we will reconvene in the Autumn and get EP7 out of the door, shortly there after or at least before the end of the year.
I'm off to start re-recording "Drowning in Air".
Later
