Cello and Viola recording is going to happen in october or possibly november.
I think simultaneously we are going to begin work on wave 2 of album stuff which is to work on the 4 tiny baby lullaby songs.
wave 1 is the epic orchestra stuff. the remainder. wave 3. is going to be the last batch and probably it will begin around january.
The album is taking shape and it is an exciting shape to be in. Very epic. It will be hard to top. The electronic aspects are going to be a lot more focused this time around. trying to do more with less. The Drive Home was mostly an experiment in non stop wall of synth and hooks. I am going to try and be more delicate with the synth this time around. mostly because the orchestra parts are so crazy and over the top that synth needs to be the anchor. does any of this make sense? I am going to be doing a lot of guitar work on this album too. I would like people who have not heard us before this album to think of us as a crazy rock band with lots of weird stuff. rather than a crazy electronic band with lots of weird stuff.
I have been listening to a lot of orchestral pop music to get in the zone lately. Sigur Ros and Sufjan Stevens are so fucking good at having lots of big textured instruments and not having it come across as overwhelming or over the top.
I can't wait for people to hear this shit! I'm thinking 2/3rds will be done by Christmas. the big 2/3rds though.
The whole album is starting to come into focus in my head and I couldn't be more thrilled. The way I / We record is I have a lap top and I travel to other people and record them in random places and then bring it all back to my studio to fix it up. It's really interesting and effecting the album in many great ways because no one is trapped in a studio for too long. it's like a puzzle we are working to depuzzle. that can't be a word. nope totally isn't.
ok so here is another video. This one is not very focused. it's a clip from us in a park in London. We had just had an amazing nights sleep in a big house and we were all feeling pretty good and laughing a whole lot. The other girl in this is jenny o. if you don't know her you should. she is in our top 8 and working on an album that is going to melt your face with goodness.
