Och yus. Here's an update on all things studio-ular from the recording of the nu album. A fun filled recording sesh over at the beautiful Grimersta Studios took place yesterday (15th Feb). Five tracks are now almost complete from a musicular point of view. All that remains to do are the 40 layers of vocal harmonies. Jason has excelled himself once more in composing choons full of soul, passion, and musical notes. First up was a moving tribute to the recording of the guireans mighty Alasdair Mackay is God (sorry Bod). Wattie has laid down a test vocal which is in no way the finished version and has to be done again. Ok? And that bleeding note is hard to acheive! And as for the middle eight!
Secondly a song about wind farms. During the take, Jason announces that there is no longer a third verse and there is now a middle eight thing instead. It's nice to know these things.
Thirdly a song provisionally called Funk Odysey which has no wurds yet. And fourthly a song about a lone surviving ship from the Spanish Admarda finding itself at Scalpay- possibly in the present day and seeing the Scalpay bridge. We need to work on the lyrics for this but the music is fantastic. A sort of Rush meets Julio Inglese ytype thing.
Fifthly is a 2002 version of Ponderous whcih may form part of a mini concpet about emigration or something.
So, its all go up here. Bet Robin and Jon are jealous that they've been fired from the band.

Fired? don't be silly. Me and Jon fired you and Jason from the band ages ago, only we forgot to tell yous. And now you seem to be masquerading as 'the dunringles'. well we'll soon see about that. See you in court. Or at Deep Purple at any rate.
