Steve began recording one section of the organ parts for I, Awake on Monday night. We were fortunate to be able to actually use one of Steve’s Hammond organs with a Leslie speaker, and are really happy with the way things turned out – the organ tone is too sweet (Steve’s playing isn’t half bad either…)
Unfortunately Steve didn’t get everything that he wanted recorded, so he’s going to try to finish up tomorrow. More on that as it develops.

Falling Edge received a nice mention at Dante’s Prog Blog Inferno.
Well, after a fair amount of hassle and an unusually long delay between posts, our web page seems to be up and running smoothly. Hopefully it’ll stay that way for a while…
The band had a great rehearsal on Monday, and is now ready to begin recording of the final CD cut I, Awake. Steve plans to record some of the organ parts first, after which Kevin will begin laying down drum tracks. Steve hasn’t committed yet, but there is a possibility that he’ll use (one of) his vintage Hammond/Leslie organ/speaker combinations for the organ parts. We hope to begin work on Steve’s tracks early next week.
The band also made great headway in Social Engineering, nailing it at rehearsal this week, with the exception of one small and very difficult passage. It won’t be long before this one is performance-ready, though.
