Dark Matter guitar parts ready to go… almost

Dark Matter guitar parts ready to go… almost

Still working away at these guitar parts for Dark Matter, but it shouldn’t be long now. Meanwhile, Convergence at Fossil Falls is well underway, with the drums, keyboards, and vocals all recorded. Some of the bass is already done for this track as well, and the guitar parts are ready to go too, so once Dark Matter is done, Convergence should follow not long after. For the gear nuts out there, Chris has also finished designing a 5 band parametric EQ to insert into his amp’s effects loop to fine tune his tones. The plan is to have it built and in use by the time he records Dark Matter.

Only guitar left on Dark Matter

The bass and drums for Dark Matter are now complete and have been recorded. The bulk of the keyboard (including pipe organ!) parts are also done and recorded, with only a few small parts left to record. Since this one’s an instrumental, the only thing left to do now is record the guitar parts. Most of these are ready to go, but there are some (very) difficult passages in this song, so it may take a while before the guitar gets recorded in its entirety. Hopefully these will come together in the next few weeks, during which time I’ll start picking away (no pun intended) at the tentatively title track of this release, Convergence at Fossil Falls.

Most of the mixing for Sex for Sale is now complete, and Dark Matter is well underway. A little less than half of this one is already recorded, and things are moving along quickly for the next few sections. It shouldn’t be too long before this one’s in the can too.
