BACK IN STUDIO FOR THE III

After 4 long months struggling in a forced 'coma' we finally got the time to build a new studio that allow us to compose, reharse and record on our own works.
Nothing will ever be the same, we took our time to fill out all the rack spaces with tons of new recording gear and we also improved our individual set-ups (this means new sound for the new album!)

OUTSIDE IN(side)
On 2nd May we did a quick brainstorming to schedule our agendas; we're fully dedicated to the 3rd album and to improve the concerts' performances. New members on the band means double work, but hey, we got some of the best progressive musicians of the portuguese market on our ranks for free, why worry?:)

Day one was meant to refresh the 'Outside In(side)' song, Sam and I got all the structure defined and Mike was pulling out a great line for the 'chorus', it's in fact one of the best Forgotten Suns' 'chorus' ever made. We made some new arrangements on the song structure since the last time we played it on the previous studio.
Now it's perfect!
Bass lines from Nuno are also pretty advanced for this one; vocals are really good but yet not finished and keyboard work is about 30% done. This is due to the fact that the keys' work represent a different role on this song, we imagine it like Mike working some sound samples on the background instead of doing lots of harmonies like the usual neo-prog approach.
Ah, there's a keyboard and guitar solo on this one, not to miss:)

all for now
