THE ART OF RECORDMAKING: Day 2

november eleventh, two thousand-nine

KB again here, reporting from The Mansion again, the second day of our adventure  in recordmakingland. so far so good. so far so very good. 


today we are tracking lotzzzzzz of vocals on "my first love maria."  taking it a spacey direction that i'm really digging. i'm excited to get the rhythm section in here next week, but am thoroughly enjoying the chill afternoons beau and i are using to hone in on some of the folkier (or 'something'-er) tracks.


this song "maria" is a real winner. it's a story that tells of a love lost, in a way pointing out that it's dangerous not to say what you mean in a timely manner.  p.s. it's the only song that i've ever written or may ever write that has the "f-word" in it. sorry, mom. couldn't get around it. everyone will know why when they hear it.


the song's giving us lots of room to play! there's a pretty dramatic ending so we're making pad sounds to go underneath with some fuzzy feedback from a hollow-body guitar.  beau's playground.


he doesn't mean it. he really loves you all. he wants to be a rockstar when he grows up.


that's it for right now. may do some more later. 

catch you soon.
