Rec Cut Note
Quite good progress now, in the prodjekt, lots of recording / composition done, frequently working on EMS, alot more than i update this blog, We now know quit clear where we are going, ( i think ( i hope))
I tried some diffrent synts here and there while doing the recording, no one really seam to cut it, to slick or big or to boring and so on, so i started to Rewire Record into logic again and as usual, the synt Thor sounds, just TOOO good, if you are into synts try it out, skip the preset, just mess around with it, i think will try to publish a bunch of patches for Thore to make it more justis than the presets.
OK, Now we have to focus on the typography and the choreography a bit, and push it in to some kind of corner, where it will fit .
And also get ouer film camras (dslrs) out of the bags. last word about the image, its taken with an app for my iphone slitscan, a “classic” technic i messed around with in max many ears ago, but its just so fun, i think i have to mess with it a bit more with some hires camera. ummm

Trackday Mantorp
The beginning of this week was spent at Mantorp Park, A racing track in Sweden, i was trying out what happens if you put your self on a motorbike, and no speed limits, i guess a choreographic act in a broad sens. at least in a very fast sens, and you do think about your body in relation to the world aroun you, i recommend it to everybody.

Continue Recording
More sessions at ems done, hard to tell you what is my favorite studio there. i guess all we tried are quite okey, very different indeed, and the listing and speakers are different, very different so winch one sounds most “True” i don´t now at all… In studio one you can easily A-B between some Genelecs with sub and some big meyer ones, and i its 2 completely different things, specially spacial, it’s like 2 different rooms.
So, about the work, now i am the one confused and doubting , don’t now where its heeding now, and why and all that kind of things, i am not RELAY worried (yet) i recognize this phase / period in work processes, but still its very annoying , Mr Eek seams more happy with it now …. I think we have to leave it a bit, and com back to it, put something in between.
We end with some more tec stuff, i have had problems getting the bass sound right, but now its better,(i guess switching bass is also i good ide) I found a AU plugg i relay liked, it doesn’t sound spectacular, no dists or flanger here it just give it a good quality, its called “MarkBass Mark Studio 1″ defensively worth a try if you like a steady bass ( tel me if you got a better tip ) , the same company also make some guitar FX called TH2, i cant say i investigated that one much, just tried it, but i got some sunno esc sound in it. quite fun, but the interface is a drag…

More Audio Work
More work in the studio, Arrange an re record some bits, pieces falls into place, Eek is somewhat unsure of the material, but i really like it, We now have to give it some more digital and electronic twists and tweeks, and come up with ways to do it in a live situation, Now some technical thoughts, I Considering Abelton Live for the performance, i got a NFR of max for live (Thanks Ableton) an i guess it will be a good tool to get the visuals to sync as well and let it be the controller of everything, (MAX, Reactor, VDMX and the Dmx lights or whatever)
About the image, just look at all beautiful knobbs and stuff this is a Serge system, Maybe not as beautiful as the Buchla, but built more like a tank, A rely a rugged feel ti it, i think it was made in LA mid 70 to mid 80.

A Setup
Today it was work at Elektronmusikstudion Stockholm, first messing around in the conference room trying to simulate some small spaces we are going to film in, and se what kind of images we can expect to get and which lenses to use, Basically get a feel for it. after lunch we got in to Studio 2, ( studio 2 is actually a 8! channel surround studio quite a few speakers there ), and made more recordings, we now consider the first recording part finished and now we have to “analyze” the material and arrange or rearrange it… we will see. Anyway right now we both feel quite happy about it.

Today we invaded EMS
It was nice to be there again, long time sins last sessions down at mynchenbryggeriet, this time staffan was there as well, after some administrational stuff in the morning we got into a good recording session, and developing of ides, and as usual a big thanks to the boss at ems Mats Lindström.
humm and yes, wee felt like we had to sneaking in the guitars to that studio, i think its blasphemy to bring guitars there. :)

Just when you counted us out
We ( Staffan and me ) are making great progress again,
MkII is really taking shape. exactly what shape we can not reveal yet, that would spoil all the fun, for everyone.
On the image above you se Leif Elggren in a super concentrated state, helping us out with some adjustments on the Korrex.
