Lammas – full songs being posted on soundclick today

Wow, August first already – since it’s the first of the three Harvest celebrations in Celtic tradition -and also a day to celebrate Crafts and Skills: it seems a fortuitous time to announce that the individual songs are being posted in their entirety on soundclick.com. Woo-hoo!

A new decision for the songs…

The streets of Eugene seemed oddly empty tonight… and there was a strange heaviness in the air – with clouds blanketing the sky yet refusing to release their rain. It was almost as if the entire night were holding it’s breath… waiting…

update on recording, mixing and writing

Weather slowed down some of the outdoor video – rain and threats of rain postponed our short hike to the second magickal location we want to use. But we’re using this time to mix; and I believe we’ll have a new tune posted really soon.  Meanwhile, I’m posting a new  recent photo  just to fill […]

Shooting video and preparing tracks for final mixing

The last couple of nights we’ve been shooting a bit of video, and it’s quite fun. We were looking for just the right lighting in the evenings – the golden hour. We’d decided to add a bit of theme footage to tie together all the live footage we have – to capture the essence of […]

Vocal Effects for Marmalade Moonlight

I wanted to post a little bit about the mixing to illustrate what’s going on with it – knowing so many people are waiting for the next song to be released, hopefully this will give you an idea of how it’s coming.

New Song Sample Posted: Riding the Wheel

We’ve just posted another song sample on RockScarlet.com “Riding the Wheel” is kind of a fun song, it strikes me as being a bit more “radio friendly” than some of our other tunes – but what about you? What do you think? We’ll be releasing another one as soon as it’s mixed – soon!

Mixing the latest tunes

Wanted to post a bit of an update on the mixing. My first thoughts are that all three new tunes came out quite cool, the tracks are great. This recording has taken a bit of time, but its been worth it, and we’re pretty happy with it. However, I’d really like to enchant up the […]

Monday & Tuesday Night in the Studio

Whew! We’ve finished the vocals and harmonies, and did a rough mix tonight of “Ring that Bell.” As always happens, we’ll need to listen tomorrow with fresh ears and make some adjustments. These 3:00AM mixes have their own personalities 😀 and often need to be tweaked a bit later.

Saturday Night at the Studio

Last night we recorded the basic tracks for the final three songs in this project. As always, we had great fun in the studio, and Ben the engineer was really good at getting the sounds. He’s easy to work with, a night owl like us – and it was just so nice not to have […]
