of the drums being recorded.
Yes, it has finally arrived. Whilst I pen this blog-ular masterpiece as Ryan peeks over my laptop screen and therefore gets the ireful jut of a monitor into his mandible, I am listening to Mattfu, drummer extraordinaire, lay down the drum track to Eye to Eye.
What have the last 3 weeks entailed, you ask? Seemingly behind us (cross your damn fingers and go knock on some wood!) are the hours and hours spent sound treating the main and control room, setting up 7 separate microphone configurations and tweaking each to find our little pocket of the ideal drum sound spectrum, and then picking the pocket that we all collectively like the best. All wrapped around the wonderfully sporadic and highly entertaining stories of Indigo and Orion.
Drum mic mission completed. Album storyline 3% more unlocked, “Ideal Drum Pocket” achievement is … well, achieved.
So on we march through the material with drum sticks blazing. Ah damn, feels good to get some tracking done.
You want more? Perhaps some leaked album info? That what you want? You dirty, dirty information voyeur. I’m gonna keep my eye on you. But here you go.
