This is an updated recording of the
track from a couple of years back. My Roland VS-2480 recorder used all 24
digital tracks, mainly due to stereo recording of pianos, synths and drums. We
tried to get a more 'folky' feel to the first part of the song, but couldn't
resist the trademark organ background picking out counter-riffs to the vocals.
On the reprise, I started to add waves and steel drums, so along with the
six-part vocals, it started to sound a bit Caribbean…bring on the longboats! As with Long Gone Geek, everything is recorded in real time, one instrument at a time, but unlike LGG, I have now graduated to Roland V-Drums instead of the finger-pads! Two years on from the original recording, Anne's voice continues to give a natural feel to complement the instruments. Post-recording activities consisted of the usual mix-down, effects & mastering etc. |
