So I’m (finally) almost done with the big amazing record. And I have a new name for the project too: Tomorrow is Already Here. The album name will be “First Words.”
I’m probably a few weeks away from finishing up the sequencing work (gotta cut some songs! 65 minutes is toooo long), then I’ll be working through mastering, cd artwork, replication, and promotion… one battle done, on to the next!
February is record production month… The annual RPM challenge just finished up, and this year, I took a shot at it.
I was too busy to post any details about the process, but after many long nights and more than a few days off work, I finished. I wrote, recorded, and mixed a record in a month. Well, it’s not really a record, but it’s 10 good songs. I actually had three weeks, since I heard about the project late.. so I spotted myself three songs I had already written, but which I had never properly recorded.
You can hear the whole shebang, which has been titled (in a bleary-eyed haze) “And Then There Were Ten”, at the RPM headquarters.
Here’s a link where you can download the whole EP as a zip file… (for a limited time).
