Mimesis - studio diary

[Jami]

Day XXX

Howdy folks, Studio days at Oulu behind (actually we left there about week ago), Hiili and I had a blast but we still have some shit to do. I wasn't able to finish all lyrics yet, so only about half of the vocal parts are recorded.

Anyway, otherwise everything is going as planned and I sing rest of the songs as soon as I get them ready.

Unfortunately we didn't have any cameras at Tonebox studio's so I can't show you any new material.

Howdy folks, I started to work with lyrics again and I hope I get the damn album done within couple weeks.

Here few rough demo's what didn't make it to the album:

- Outlines
- Hourglass

(To clear things up, these songs are not going to be on our next album)

[Jami]

7 songs ready, 3 more to go. Check. ugh. Roger.

Time for a smoke:

9/10 Check. This song was actually pretty weird, 'cos I don't usually sing this high, but I think it works pretty well. Now when I think of, many songs are in different tune than with Unreal.

Soon we need to start focusing to artwork and all other shit what we need to do before album comes out.

I hope we get last song finished within a week.
I stay in touch

[Jami]

All right folks, all songs are finally ready!!!
I just need to record few vocal tracks and then we are done. This haven't been easiest process and I must say that I newer ever want to enter studio again if the songs are not 100% finished. It's not fun at all, although you can achieve lots of interesting stuff with this approach.

I also have been in flu most of the autumn so it take some time to get this far. Anyway, it's going to be a fucking killer album and probably something what you didn't expect to hear from us.

Mixing stars within few weeks, I keep you posted.

I was bored and made some dragons for no reason, download "wallpaper" here:
