Progress report 2010-08-12
Ok been ages since an update on here but here's a fairly substantial one.
I've originaly said early fall 2010 as release date....I fear I might have to push that back and set an absolute deadline at the end of the year. Sorry about that but life has this tendency to sneak up and just steal the time right from under your nose. I still aim to have this done much earlier than new year but that's the absolute latest.
Summer came and went passed in a blur, 10 songs have their basics recorded. Drums all done, also all the bass is recorded. The songs that lean heavily on piano and similar have had those recorded aswell.
So that's all done and good,what's left? ALOT!
Right now it's a hunt for the perfect guitar tones for each song, and then to record them. This is the most time consuming part of the recording for me, tone hunting has never been a favorite hobby of mine but it's rather essential for a song to have the right sound so it has to be done.
And once the guitars all are recorded it's time to give those vocal cords a serious workout! Lead vocals and harmony vocals is left to do for real (right now it's just rough guide stuff on the tracks).
And after that it's done? oh please, of course not!
Reaching this far only means that the essentials has been recorded, now it's time to put all those little details in to the songs that makes it all sound finished.
And once THAT is done, it's just the mixing and mastering left!
