Topic: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, this is an update as to what's happenin' in the studio. Tomorrow, I'll be heading in to put down two more songs (rhythm tracks first) and then we can move forward into lead parts in the songs. The CD will then have a total of 12 songs big_smile We will eventually put down the vocal tracks and do some solo parts, it'll be a lot of fun big_smile

Re: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, just another update. Went in to the studio yesterday to work on more songs. Got down the last two songs for the CD, leaving it at 13 wonderful songs for you all big_smile Got down all of the guitar rhythm tracks, lead tracks, and solo tracks. All that's left is to put down some vocal tracks, and my band members will go in next month to get down their parts, and then the CD will be sent in for mixing afterwards big_smile

Re: Studio Updates

I'm lucky enough to have heard the material for the new cd played raw unrehearsed in its entirety and I can tell all of you that if you thought Power and Force was good, this new cd will blow your mind !

Re: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, just keeping you all updated on the latest news on the new CD. My band and I went in to Carriage House Studios in Stamford, CT to lay down the bass tracks and the drum tracks for all 13 songs, and it was a very long session, but all of that part is officially finished! big_smile Hooray!! All we need to do now is put down some vocal tracks and some more guitar solo tracks and then we can move on from there! big_smile So far, this new CD is sounding absolutely amazing and is going into a whole new direction, I'd have to say, much more of a different path than Power & Force II for sure, but it still puts out a strong kick just like Power & Force II! Hopefully it's be released sometime by early spring of 2010.

Re: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, just last weekend, I went to the studio and laid down some vocal tracks to 2/7 of the songs on the CD. The CD will have 13 songs on it, yes, 7 of which will have vocals. We are making good progress with it, vocals were laid don on one and vocals and a guitar solo was laid down on the other. I should be expecting that I'll be going back maybe either next weekend or in two weeks to put down vocal tracks to two more songs. At this rate, we should probably look for a release date of either April or May of 2010.

Re: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, I got back from the studio yesterday, and we worked on more vocal tracks. I got down three songs yesterday, and we only have 2 more songs that need some touching up and needs vocal tracks and then it's off to the process of mixing. My other producer, Phil Magnotti, is already working on the mixing process of the songs, he has started and there is no slacking off on this project =] So I should be going back probably next weekend to work on the last bits of material big_smile Meanwhile, I got a show coming up in 2 weeks in Mt. Vernon, New York at the Bayou club. This will be great, it'll be my first show in New York of the year =] It'll be a late night show, but we're going to rock the place out haha XD Hope you can make it to the show, rock and roll everyone big_smile

Re: Studio Updates

Hey everyone, today was the last day for the studio, we wrapped up the last of guitar parts, and vocals are all finished. We are now currently in the stages of getting the artwork made out and the CD is going through the process of mixing. It took us since about May of last year to get as far as we are now =] The expected release date of the CD A Bit Above should be within April - May of this year. I'm not positive if we will be putting samples up or not, however, there MIGHT be a download available of a brand new song, it's still not positive, and that song will have to be wrapped up as well. Rock and roll everyone =]

Re: Studio Updates

Well Zziggyflavel, because of some delays in the project, it won't be coming out until sometime next month, but the CD will have 13 tracks on it, 6 songs will be instrumentals and 7 songs will have vocals. Right now, we are in the process of having the CD mixed and we are currently working on the album artwork, we will definitely have it out before August for sure smile
