May '09
Quite a bit going on at the moment - the final 'In Through The Marshalling Yards' recording sessions for Champion Version are now finished - as usual think sparse bass, delay, delay, delay with some gentle crackle and you won't be far off.
I'm over the 'moon' to have been invited to do a record with the incredible US label Futurerecordings so I've now started improvising a few pieces for this, which I think will be released late Summer/early Autumn. I'm thinking of adding some distortion or even some drums but we'll see how the sessions pan out - any one who fancies having a go at putting some drums down for this please do get in touch.
And those 'ZERO' plushes I keep promising that Parskid put together will be available to buy from June - I promise - they're amazing and severely, severely limited edition so be quick if you'd like one.
Elsewhere I've been incredibly busy with Cut Iowa Network for the past six months but we're now finally approaching the closing stages of the 'Projector Gunship Held 2' mixing sessions - and that is why I haven't been answering my mails very quickly over here because the last month or so has been pretty intense - It's then off onto 'Projector Gunship Held 3' for CIN - thanks a lot and more in a few weeks.
