Studio 1: just a few more days left of the Opera Diabolicus project, finally getting control of the mix,
500 vocal tracks in every song ? altenative takes, good, but a pain in the butt to sort out
next thing in would be finish up the vocals with Last Kingdom before I go to a different studio next week setting up a mix for a swedish band.
no scoops at all in the studio this week, so far !

Hello again, after a very hectic week starting up the mix with Opera Diabolicus, I just took my first beer in ages when Joacim Cans of Hammerfall called me to say that they were looking for a place to continue their recording, which started a few weeks ago at a different studio.
The only problem with that was that I had to move my current bookings to later, since they wanted to start in a few days !!!
Just poured myself an oversized JD and coke…
Alright, guys of the Opera Diabolicus,and Last Kingdom, thanks for beeing understanding, Ill get you drunk when we continue…
for now, take care
regards from the house that never sleeps !
