| I
recorded most of this album in late 2005 - early 2006, except for No
Surprises, which was done in early 2005 with Roly Skender and passed
around as a two-track CDR b/w Letters Of Complaint, which became quite
popular. Track 3&4 were recorded for the Descend Here Destroy All
Ornaments EP and Postal Aid Package From Mum was a re-mixing of
an earlier recording done sometime in mid-2004. The rest were put together
during that time in my house and, with the exception of Loudspeeka,
using my rather limited setup. Well, not that limited; I was
combining FruityLoops, Ableton Live and Cubase and a stack of plugins but
as with all my recordings to date, my computer chugs with too many tracks
so a lot of the time it's a very slow process to get everything perfect.
Anyway, I'm really happy with this record, it's a really good snapshot of where I was at at the time. There is an out-take waiting to be re-mixed in my house of a version of Getting Aware I attempted with Audio Cephlon but we didn't really get into it 'cos at the time I think I was being too much of a lazy shit and wanting him to do all the boring shit like EQ'ing for me both because I didn't want to do it and because I was still learning how to do that kind of thing. I learned quite a lot from him about Cubase though and without those sessions, I doubt I would've got through the recording. There's a lot of light and shade here that people don't often think of with my work as I seem to have become known for being a bit full on; which is fine, I guess. I mean, people think of most performers in a 2D way, it's only when they scratch the surface that they begin to see other stuff. But if you listen to this record, I think you'd get a pretty good general idea of who I am. Obviously you wouldn't be a Tomás Ford expert or anything, but you'd certainly have insight into quite a lot of the ways that I think. 19/05/2008 |
