Volume 2: A Demo is Born
Three new tunes all done and dusted which, keeping with tradition, I’m going to call Volume 2.
The songs Bananagate, Coyote Tranceman and Clouds Amongst Us got pretty much the same treatment as the last set of songs. All instrumental, all recorded to an appauling standard with shockingly cobbled together gear which I call a home studio. Hey, when you have no money, you make do, or make the most, I forget which one.
Apart from the obvious gap where a noisy head should be (I’m working on that), I think these sound pretty complete, an improvement over the last set in terms of production.
Recorded between 23rd and 26th of June.
Lets see if, third times a charm.

Our First Demo Recordings are Complete
My first Demo songs have been recorded.
The songs ‘Zero’, ‘Robotic Heel’, ‘I Am Symmetry’ and ‘The Art Of Self-Defence’ have all been recorded as instrumentals between 22nd and 26th April 2008. I’m collectively labelling these as ‘Volume 1′.
It’s been almost 5 years since I’ve played music, you don’t know how much of a relief it was to finally crack open my head and let the juicy ideas pour fourth. Honestly, I was about to burst. What the fuck was I thinking with not being a part of music for so long.
The music was recorded in my home studio set-up onto PC via a single solitary mic, into a crudded up old PA head. Cubased, effected, programmed and polished. They don’t sound half bad considering the absolute dog shit gear they were recorded with. Very LO-FI.
Now where’s that singer and drummer I ordered?
