13.02.16 This Week in the Studio
Written by Jimmy
An unintentional ‘boys only’ session in the studio with a bit of Abubilla Music and a bit of Abubilla Music Foundation work.
The Music: Focused on two songs:
- Back on It: We worked on this during Spanish Jam but wanted to see how it would work as a more rocky song with Gus. So Mike, Rob, Ed and Gus slaved away in the isolation booth working on a new version.
- Sammy’s mash up: Sammy had worked on a song that took the best from Tati’s ‘Call Me’ (still unpublished and part of her second discovery album) and Chris’s ‘Be Like You’, from his album, No One But Yourself. Mike and Rob added drums and bass to Sammy’s ukulele.
Everything Else: While the boys were recording, Jimmy slipped out to the Bridge Pub to meet Kathy, Vicki and Guy Morley to discuss next steps on Singing Wells. We talked specifically about the upcoming training sessions for Steve and Patrick and how best to use the new studios.
Last point to note – Jimmy and Rob ran the sesssion sans Andy. Gradually learning to ‘patch’ but still struggling with the musicians desire to hide in the isolation booth rather than use the big studio!
That’s it.
