Adam writes great songs.  “Comin’ Through” is no exception.  It contains so much that I love about great music. His lyrics, sonic experimentation, sick guitar tones.  Dimension.  And vibe.  It’s simply brilliant.

New mini album/EP “future weather” is due out on Secretly Canadian October 26th.  Pick it up peeps.

These were just sketches with the exception of “A Bouquet of Ghosts” which was written and recorded as the theme for a student film called “The Other Side”.

Hope you enjoy them.

I also spent Saturday mastering Audible’s Isolette EP with MK, and will be finishing up some small corrections this evening.

Mike V, aka Young Lion Apprentice, was in the Laundromat all afternoon recording vocals for his upcoming full-length.  We used the 1970s MG UM70s through my 1970s Yamaha PM1000 preamp.  Lots of transformers between the mic and preamp in this signal chain folks.  We finished vocals for four more songs.  There’s three more to go before mixing tweaks and mastering.

Looking forward to a little soup before some more mastering work.
