Another Ohrwurm Studio bass session

Here's a few photos of a recent bass session I tracked for Josef Falsch in Ohrwurm studio.

Happy new year!

So happy new year to you all. I feel really good about 2011! A year for some great achievements. Some of which I have already achieved today.

Today the lyrics are flowing. I wrote a song called Winter Winter ( name could change in the next coming days ) in 2.5 hours. So far the idea is to have this one freestyle on the guitar and tracked on a 2 track tape machine. Keeping it clean and raw. But we will see how that pans out.

*Note to myself, write it all on the guitar - then throw it in logic and if I want the final piece without guitar, then at least the structure is there.

Recording bass for Honey in Ohrwurmstudio.

Josy from Ohrwurm studio kindly donated some of his time for me last night to record a new bass line for the EP I am working on for Jon. The first track "honey" is finally coming together and sounding less static now that the pre production synthetic baseline has been replaced. The bass was played by myself through a line6 Pod X3 and a soft compression was applied on a Urei compressor before tracking into Logic Pro 8.

I also found an old Jen SX1000 mono analogue synth lying around, so on my next visit I will be sitting on the sofa in the back making some noises to be used on my next production. Thanks again Josy.

Schweden Records listening to Jon Botham
