Hive studio's OCT2012

34
Well we're a third of the way through the pitch and just short of target. You guys have pledged £347, which is thirty percent of the total needed to make this a successful pitch. Sat saw the first of several sessions at 'Hive studio's' in Glastonbury. Smiffy and Gem combined to record drums and bass on the track 'I Feel Fine.' The session went really well despite some severe gremlins in the machine. This is where intuition comes in and I have to say had i listened to my flow i'd have spent a little more time with the track rather than expecting to get two tracks down in the session. I kinda knew that it wasn't right to finish on 'I Feel Fine,' and that we weren't going to get a rough cut of 'Rollin On.' we fumbled an hour on a guide track that just wasn't ready for recording over. You live and you learn and a good chat with a gentleman in the pub reminded me to get in the flow and allow this project to happen rather than stubbornly forcing my will and dictating the play. The monitor mix from the session at Hive studio’s is up on Soundcloud.
