Check..

Bass guide tracks are finished, these will be re-recorded later with better equipment but I came up with some pretty cool new riffs on bass for some of my songs. The question will be do they fit with the current guitar riffs. I was going to set up some amps and stuff in a room out at my mums house that has a cool walk in wardrobe that I could have used as an iso booth, unfortunately the time I have left until somebody moves into that room has now become short, it may not be an option now. Exploring other options this week.

Meanwhile on the song writing front, Tim and his partner Naomi have been getting right back into it. They have written some melodies and lyrics for that song I wrote with Tim via the Internet as well as a whole new song that I am yet to fiddle with. When we have a working demo I might post a preview of one of these. As a group we have pretty much decided to write more music together so expect more new things to come of this (it also gives us somewhere to play the few songs I have dropped off my album).

The live recording of the 'Awakening' event Tim and I did last weekend went well considering the difficult situation (36 channels of audio coming from the stage with only 24 channels to split and record). I am going to do one last check on the mix tonight on my car stereo and that will be ready to pass on to the video guy, will post a link to a vid once that's done.

Anyway, will post updates on the guitar recording process as I can.
