Last Day Mixing at Alaska
Had a very successful last day with Bob at Alaska today. I think we’ve finally managed to nail that bass sound we’ve all been searching for. Just waiting on a few more mixes from producer Dan Carey to be handed in and we’ll have the lot! Major butterflies.
Alaska Studio Mixing – Four days left!
We’ve now spent four days mixing at Alaska with Bob. The album is shaping up well. We have also recorded brand new versions of End Times and Prometheus. The years of playing Prometheus live are really starting to show in the recording! The bass sounds huge.
We’ve also been listening through some of the mixes Dan Carey has been doing for us, including new song “Give”. They’re all sounding incredible, as was to be expected from him!
This month we’ll be mixing tracks for the album. Yesterday we were at Alaska studio with Bob Earland on the desk. Got some nice rough mixes down, one potential album track and one possible B-Side. Album is sounding tight.
…yes that is a microphone pointing at a tape deck…
Mixing Day 1 – Slow Slow
Just got back from our first day of mixing at Alaska Studios, with Bob Earland, who recorded our very first EP back in 2008!
The album is coming along nicely. Today we mixed a brand new version of Slow Slow! Sounding like single material! We’ll keep you posted.
Gig in Cardiff tomorrow supporting Dan and Pip. Look forward to seeing some of you there!
Studio Last Day
Solid day today. A lot happened. Got some good mixes down, great performance from Polarbear:
