Twilight is the best time of the day

As I sit and listen to the sounds of winter winding down and the snow melting from my rooftop, I reflect on the last few months and two seasons we spent recording our debut EP. Tracking drums and bass began early October in the Chapel and that room really shines on the tracks. Major label producers pay big money to have access to this type of "room" sound...and as the drummer/co-producer it's extra special. We recorded some of the guitars at the chapel but mostly at my apartment, and the bass was tracked at Mike's apartment. It's amazing what people are able to do now days with the tech of digital recording. A hard drive, a MacBook, a Digi002, some decent mics, and a lot of patience and desire got us some amazing tracks using no digital plug-ins. We went to the expert in Dustin Burnett (http://www.plumemedia.com) to track the vocals with a Charter Oak mic into a spectacular signal chain. We left the tracks with him for mixing and then they found their way to New Zealand where they were mastered.
Twilight is the album. Six tracks of methodical planning and writing/recording. Four guys, all imagining music and creating what we imagine with our hands into our instruments; the sound created is captured by technology and played back into the own ears of the guys who imagined it all to begin with. A record that feels like the sound has no boundary, an endless expanse of glorious sound.
We are very proud of this upcoming release. We believe in what we're doing and we believe you will take the album to heart.
