Update

Hi, Everybody! Although it may seem a bit quiet right now, there's actually been some cool stuff going on over these past few weeks. In The Den, Jimmy is working on some preliminary mixing so that when we lay down our next set of tracks, we'll be doing it along to something that sounds a bit more polished. This appears to be a wise strategy in cases where, for example, you're adding backing guitar, and want to consider which chord inversions will best fill out the harmonic space of the song. The preliminary mixing will allow those choices to be more accurate.

On my end, I've been editing the next chapter of "The Making Of...", but I also had the chance to get together with some super-talented singers who will be laying down some very special background parts, and creating some great atmosphere. I scored out the harmonies, and then got together with them to go through the parts and talk about what I would need. I can't wait to record and then add them into the mix--it's going to bring everything to a whole 'nother level!

In other news, I am thinking of holding a huge listening party when the record is released, and the planning of that will be a huge endeavor and well out of my area of expertise, but I'll fumble through it! Timing-wise, I could be ready for that sometime this Winter, but that's not typically the best time for any kind of large gathering--especially for those guests who might drop in from outside the city. What to do? what to do?

That's it for now, but I'll keep you posted!

The Making of Flaud Logic - Chapter 7

This chapter chronicles the continuing sage of guitar recording. Far outweighing any other instrument in terms of the number of parts per song, this is one of what is likely to be several sessions over the next few weeks that focus on guitar. In this segment, Yuri Nikolaev (Wicked Monkey) and Scott Thomas Ferreira (The Last Broadcast) lay down acoustic and electric guitar tracks respectively.
