Outside In

23rd May going to 24th...

In the same day that Daniel Flores confirmed that he has received the package with the first group of 4 songs in perfect condition, I'm doing another post on the making of blog! Today I have some pictures of this week at the studio: Thursday and Friday (22nd & 23rd).

We are recording the last track for the album - Outside In - which in fact was the first track to be written for it!:) Yesterday we did some bass incursions on the new instrumental section. For those who were at Aula Magna and Europarque and still keep some memories of this song, I can assure you that it developed into a incredible sick track. It has the longest and powerful musicianship we aimed since we decided to write this album, it's a very complete piece of music: has a huge concept, groovy riffs, great vocals, tremendous bass lines, hot solos from both guitar and keys, a big unisson, full of odd signatures on drums...what else can I say? Yes, it's a lot of work and gives us big headaches at the end of day...

Today Mike and I were at the studio and we finalized the keyboard parts for the unisson then we ended up the day by record all guitars for the instrumental, after that we were deadly tired. While driving home, we look like kids who did they're first cool song ever:)

I found some time to upload some pics (sorry for the low quality) but here goes:

. Myself at the studio and my Amsterdam Cherry 7 string before recording Outside In instrumental
