FLOOD & FIRELIGHT- TIM KORRY-Week 15 Audio Recording- TAYLOR Studios

Clouds and lightning, low and sweeping, passed overhead like an army treading over a bloody battlefield. Wind and rain began to pound and roar as we added some vocal slap back to ‘Light as a Feather’. Lights flickered and streets flooded as work at TAYLOR Studios continued through the storm. I’m hoping the unusual weather is somehow a good omen. A cool and creepy reverse reverb ala ‘Poltergeist’ was added to a distant background vocal somehow making the weather and the vibe of the song one. Four other songs were scanned for missing parts and much needed odd bits. There are a few guitar tracks to be re-tracked and the drums tracks will need the appropriate horsepower.

 Photoshop was used on a scattering of pictures for a soon to be released interview about the recording of this CD. I think some sort of Celestial Goth look is budding in the back of my mind underneath this audio recording process. I’ve never been opposed to eye makeup or poet shirts anyway…I am told the FRESH COAST MUSIC site will have the full interview posted soon. Jeff tells me of his plans to assist in the revival of an odd musical instrument called the Janko piano. According to the people in the know, the keyboard makes more sense than using the traditional black and white keys of a regular piano. My interest in this strange device began to peak as things began to wind down for the week.

 Ignoring the insane thunderstorms and flooding from the night before, we decided to keep our camping plans with an old band mate and his wife. The trip proved to be full of recreation, wit, and suds as a camping trip with musicians usually is. After another pounding night of rain (Thankfully I was sleeping due to our friends at Spaten) the weather cleared and brightened. The weekend was a pleasant break from the inside of a recording studio on a Saturday afternoon. As some old Peter Gabriel Genesis and Ian Gillan’s Deep Purple played by the firelight, I began thinking of the upcoming drum and guitar work still needed on this project. We will be back to busy soon, but I’m pleased to know that we can break the rhythm of everyday life to hang loose with good friends around a campfire. 
  
     The fire is the main comfort of the camp, whether in summer or winter, and is about as ample at one season as at another.  It is as well for cheerfulness as for warmth and dryness.  ~Henry David Thoreau
