0 New Singles Unveiled

  • April 10, 2016

Hi folks!

It’s been a while… Dmitry and Koos have finally emerged from their winter hibernation mixing in the Market Place home studio, so we can at last unveil the titles of 6 new singles due to be released over the coming weeks and months. Exciting stuff!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

1 – Jonathan Livingston – with star guests the Northumbrian seagulls
2 – Migration – our first song, with Dmitry and Carol on vocals
3 – The Piper and the Frog – featuring Markus Bluesharp on, yes, you guessed it, the blues harp
4 – Cyber Funk – exactly what it says on the label
5 – Chicken and Egg – featuring no chickens
6 – City Folk – with a soundscape from Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Mixing is a complicated, delicate and time-consuming business,

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

But when you get it right, you know you’ve hit the spot!

Chris Longwood of SugarHill Recording Studios, Houston, mastered the tracks, and we’re all really pleased with the big sound he’s produced. When we found out Chris works on George Clinton’s tracks, we knew he’d be the guy for us!

So – watch this space for more clips, videos and stories, we’re delighted to share this exciting time with you!

Cheers!

0 VINTAGE IS BACK!

Koos shared his treasure trove of vintage microphones – great collection, including a Tesla AMK 102 and an Astatic Model K-2.

Here’s Dmitry checking out  a Krundaal Dynamic Cardioid Microphone Mod. 607. We used it for the low frequencies in a recent session to record percussion for a new track.

For the top side of the drum we used a Samson Q4. Quite a cheap mic, but stuck into a convenient hole in a chair back, it did the job. In fact, the whole set-up was pretty makeshift, as you can see! Improvisation? We love it! 😉

0 Mixing Work with Pleasure

  • August 10, 2015
  • by MetaQuorum

We love using soundscapes in our songs, so since a new track is on the way, we took a trip to the ruined castle of Dunstanburgh Castle on the Northumbrian coast to sample seagull cries over a rough sea. Got some great sonic shots, and even did a spot of sunbathing!

Although we have a quite tough recording/mixing/mastering schedule, we also find time for some live play here and there – here’s Koos trying out the Steven Slate Drums VST plug-in, metal style!
 
And another video of a sound check before a recording session.

Written by Dmitry, with Koos on drums and Carol as second vocalist, its our longest track yet, with lots of unusual sound effects, a rippling composition and a great dance rhythm.
