Awwww yeeeeaaa..

Drums are DONE. Midi is complete on all songs, and I'm so happy with them. They're simple, and they rock. I have not yet tracked them as audio because I want to keep the sessions light, in a cpu usage kind of way. I think dropping them in later is better anyway because I can see how they fit best. Kind of a mix-on-the-go, if you will. Anyway, bass tracking will begin with one of us this week. I'll probably start getting sounds tomorrow for the Music Man.

I'm taking down all the songs next week with the exception of "Untitled"....which is no longer untitled....

Keep on Truckin'

Drums are almost complete, and the songs all finally have names. I feel like a proud poppa. Can't decide if the E.P. will be self-titled. I'm leaning toward yes. Feels good to have a goal and work toward it. I haven't felt this positive about something for a while. Probably since tracking bass for the last Helen 55 record.

...end transmission...

Drums are coming along nicely. I'm a little over half done with programming the entire E.P. and have been happy with the results thus far. Tracking will start soon enough...

Work work work...

Working hard on getting solid drum beats so we have a nice bed to record with. My bass is in the shop getting a tune-up, so in the meantime I'm staying productive. I have a sneaking suspicion that this EP is gonna be the cat's pajamas...
