Halfway?

Hello!

A short update of our recording process. Juha has done his drum parts as mentioned before. Petri has done his part with the bass. I have not heard those bass tracks yet. Matti has Petri's files as he operates as an integrator. I have done almost half of my job with keyboards and been sending those files to Matti. Mathematically I'm in the halfway (6 out of 12 songs done) but truthfully I must say that I've started from the easier parts. I'm not sure how the guitar parts progress but I've heard that something has been done. I guess keyboard and guitar recordings go quite well schedulewise. We have one gig coming up (26th of February, 2011) and it takes shortly my focus out of this project.

I've been recording keyboards with ProTools M-Powered 8.0.4. I have only Juha's "quick-mix" stereo drum track, a click track and a "clue track" telling me where verse, chorus, solo etc. starts. It will be exiting to hear in a couple of weeks how all our efforts sound combined. We've been playing these songs months now so I expect no suprises. Maybe some fine tuning (soundwise) has to be done.

Recordings and gigs

22nd of January we played a seven song gig in Nuclear Nightclub, Oulu. We were supporting El Supernaut which is a band playing instrumental music (two guitars, bass, drums). Thanks for a great gig and cheerful backstage time for El Supernaut! Check what those dudes are doing. I bought their record and like it.

Short update for our recording project. Juha has made drum parts and he gave the files to Petri and me. Petri has already made half of the bass tracks while I have not even listened one bang of Juha's drum recording. Been too busy!
