Some more cello

I've discovered I'm probably not cut out for this blogging stuff.

Real bloggers write everyday, and even though I had the vision that I would write every single time I did something with the album I haven't. Mostly I think because I get home so late and am so tired that I just want to go to bed.

Anyway, we recorded the very last song yeterday. I wasn't even sure if I was going to do it, after all we already have 12 wonderful songs. But hey why not, that gives you one more song for the album and we might as well while we're in the studio. I've been on and on about how this album is going to be more produced and sound bigger than the last one, but this last song will only have a bit of slide guitar which we'll record today and then, it's done.

I found some pics of my cellist Christian, that I haven't published yet so here they are.

finally

some songs for you

"Running out of you"

"mother's way father's way"

"I won the first price tonight"

"what happened on the bridge "

I know I know

I promised to put up samples yesterday, and I didn't. And I haven't today either. BUT we've added all the band stuff now and it's simply beautiful. My god, the cello, it's just WOW! I'll spend tomorrow mixng and I'll try to get som samples up then!

Here's a little vid from yesterdays recordings.

Love is an important ingredient when you record an album. (No this man is not my guitarrist!)

a growing seed…

… of an album… looking more and more like a flower. The buds are bursting with power…

Check in on sunday eve for more samples, now with solo guitar…

good night folks

Beautiful Bass

It's been a hectic week to say the least. I decided to skip one of the songs for the album (as everybody thought it was horrible except me, haha) and had to choose and record a new one. I decided for yet another song with the word "shoe" in the lyrics and probably will have to rename the entire album to "shoes" now .We decided not to put Baby, eeerr I mean Anders, in the corner anymore (as he was forced to be there during the recordings of the last album, that studio simply wasn't big enough for him and his bass) so we even gave him his own room this time. Check out the video here:

I'm nothing but truly impressed of the way he nailed all these songs in just six hours. We rehearsed a few of them for the gig at Landet and the radio gig last week but there were several he never heard before and he did brilliantly! Even the song "Holding your hand" which he renamed "the Zappa-song" because of all the half times hidden in it. Being unrehearsed may not be the ultimate way of doing it but I must say it does add a kind of nerv that you don't get if you know the songs too well.

Anyway, next week we'll be recording Marcus and his guitars, yep he'll be doing both acustic and electric this time. And I'll record the last song for the album (no shoes in that one), which I have to do in the studio where we recorded the bass, because I have to play and sing at the same time.

In the meantime, listen to a sample from "I won the first price tonight"

take care now and I'll see you all next week.

The studio

Me as the true technician.. press "rec" press "stop"…
Jonas, behind the camera, did all the real work.

No wonder we had to give Anders a bigger room, we couldn't even fit him into one frame…

It's a kind of magic: the other halft of Anders.

Now here's the big picture! With a bit of a distance we managed to get all of him. Isn't it beautiful, well it sure sounds beautiful!
