week 3 began slowly. monday we recorded ld vocals, with the occasion shaker-ing. but today was all bart.
shakers, tambourines, triangles, file cabinets, maracas, bart was all over 'em.
what's that you say? file cabinets? yep, the best thing we did all day was when bart dragged a file cabinet from the office next door into the studio ad proceeded to play it - with a set of metal door hinges he found on the way to the office next door. lots of compression and sans amp later we had the most enormous, horrendous, industrial revolution steel mill soundiest, sound ever.
just as we were really patting ourselves on the back over such a great song, we decided to head out to the hallway ro record some bongos and get some natural hallway reverb.
but, as always seems to happen, we were shut down by the wonderful folks from ocean grown incorporated.
seems they didnt like the 120db of bongos getting in the way of their important sales calls.
tomorrow - finish percussion, finish mandolin fixes, finish synth stuff.
thurs - start mixing
Nerd report -
say hello to the new guys.
