Newest Song - Broken Well - Initial Mix Complete


Yeah, we know. Nobody has to say it, so we won't either. Onward and upward...

Just last night, in a seemingly simple, no-complications recording session at the Dragon Room, Gary and I finished the initial mix of our newest song, "Broken Well". In what we call "the morning after test", we're still really happy with the results from the evening. (The Morning After Test is just the process of letting your ears rest over night, then listening to the previous night's work the following morning.)

So here's where we stand:

Almost four songs complete:
  1. So Far
  2. From the Bones
  3. The New Logic
  4. Broken Well
We want to record one more song - completely instrumental - that should take us a couple of full days in the studio to complete. Once that's done, we will be sending our tracks for mixing - presumably by some music guru, then, once we're happy with the mixes, we will send the mixes off to a mastering studio - to be finalized for release, where another presumed audio guru will tinker with our songs on tens of thousands of dollars worth of equipment.

Then we plan the album's release: getting press, airplay, distribution, putting together the album layout and design. Then we release it. And somewhere in there, before the official release, we'll give you a chance to buy the record before it's in stores.

So there you have it. We have a busy three months ahead of us.
