Day 1 In The Studio






They say the first day in the studio is the toughest.

You arrive with grand designs but soon realise that the majority of time you spend making a quality record is in waiting around twiddling thumbs while the people who actually know what they´re doing set up lots of expensive equipment. That´s a fair description, I´d say. "They" can be very astute.

Attached are two photos. The first is of Dan and HÃ¥kon at rehearsal. Enjoy. The second is a fantastic 1970s Analogue Tape Deck that we are using to record the EP. The photograph also features a fan, one of many devices we employed to stop the tape deck from exploding in the extreme heat of the studio. We even had to get some special technician guy in to try to fix the cooling system buried deep in the dusty recesses of the beast. Today was very hot indeed.

We are very pleased indeed with how the process is going. We´ve had some very kind messages and a most pleasing response from our mailing list. We´ve even been in contact with some nice blog people, including Kurt at www.eardrumsmusic.com who you might be hearing more about soon.

All is well. Sleep soundly you good people.

Dan, Chris, Freddy and Rudi
