Studio Log (Warr Guitar)

Day Four:

A fifth song was completed today along with overdubs for a previously recorded song. That leaves one more song to go and it’s the epic of the album. Tomorrow, I take a break and resume on Saturday with a longer session. The plan is to finish everything then. This has been very enjoyable to record. As of late, my recording output has been a lot just me. It felt like such a relief to simply have to play one role with just an overdub or two.

 
 

Day Three:

I mentioned to Amery as I walked in today that I felt like I was just there which was almost the truth. Today, I brought a second guitar today to experiment with sounds and found that I may end up using my Raptor more often than I originally planned. I took a different approach by recording both the basic tracks and overdubs for song four. The song sounds complete for my part which allows me to get this track to the guys sooner. The part that I wrote for the chorus section of this song seemed to simplistic for an Aziola Cry song so I reworked it today and feel much happier with the results. I also added a cool new section to this song late last night as I was practicing. These changes have made a big difference to to the overall sound of the song. This one will also mark a first for the band, but I’ll share what I mean later when the guys record their parts.

 
 

Day Two:

I finished up song two and song three today. I consciously tried to write shorter songs this go around, but a few of them still ended up being in the ten minute range. Two of those songs are now complete. I am now half way done with the basic tracks. I also spoke with Mike today about the next steps for guitar. I will be back tomorrow for track four and maybe five.

 
 

Day One:

The recording process for a new Aziola Cry album has begun. I will be recording my parts at Gravel Road Recording before moving to Transient Sound to record drums, guitar, and finish up the album. Today, I completed the basic tracks for song one and got 3/4 of the way through song two. The plan right now is to record my “bass” Warr guitar lines first so that I can get the guys this audio to start working with. Next, I will add some overdubs as needed. The recording will be spread over the next month or so with me putting a lot of my recording time in over the holiday break
