WEEK FOUR: Hit me with another one of those tooth-cracking nougat bars

Wow, are we four weeks in to this lark already? Jeepers.

We stuck to our one song rule this week. We spent a couple of hours working on drum programming, percussion and live drums for a (brand) new tune. Very happy with how it’s progressing. Used the new (to us) Roland SPS-D for programming the drums, which was pretty revolutionary. SO much easier than your typical mpc / mpd pads – although Daryl would argue the opposite.

Daryl has renewed his addiction to the crap below.

Non musical inspiration this week was derived from watching both of the ‘Wall Street’ films in reverse order. For a moment, I felt nostalgic for a time when you, me and Charlie Sheen could eat a lump of raw mince with a raw egg on top. Nice. Speaking of nostalgia, it’s rather nice being back on the blog. Even if it is *so* 2005. Still not sold on this Twitter lark.

In between takes we’ve been listening to:

Mathewdavid (whatever we could find)
Teebs – Ardour (beautiful album)
Cass McCombs (looooove the new record)
