Bang Chemistry

I’ve been involved in helping the folks at WGOT 94.7 LP-FM get things going and we’re finally on the air. My show, Music Mosaic, comes on Monday and Friday nights so take a listen if you’re in Gainesville. Woot!

John’s track is mastered and submitted and we now await to hear from The Man. Given its projected use, we’ve titled it Quadrants.

We’d love to hear your comments. Thanks for listening.

dCal worked his magic and we completely re-worked the intro with a combination of sounds from the E5K and the 505. Version 4 went out on Sunday and they seem to have liked it. Well, it’s either that or they want us to go away and cut their losses.

Mastering is all that is left to be done. This is the part where I claim to need to do something around the house “because it needs it” and so I volunteer dCal to take over.

Sneaky, sneaky, I know.

The good news: draft v3 went out this weekend and apparently we went a little too funk so John asked if we could throw in a little more of our electronica seasoning in there. At least this is the easy part for us.

The bad news: draft v2 was the original 2:00 in length and John wanted it trimmed to 1:30 while still keeping as many fills as possible (to help with the transitions in their video). Let me just say that reworking our previous concept down a full 0:30 has proven to be a challenge.

We’re still not happy with the first part, particularly the bass sound, but we needed to get something out to John for feedback and he agreed. So back to the drawing board with the intro.

After a long hiatus during which we lost a lot of material to a hard drive failure, we’re back on the studio trying to recreate the ideas. Additionally, we’ve been contracted by a good friend to write a track for a video demo that should be released some time in December. It’s tough finding the time to work on stuff but it’s been fun when we do get to it.

The studio has also moved and has been upgraded and the new toys are fun to play with. Stay tuned for upcoming news.
