  IN A HURRY

Okay so today Kris and I recorded vocals and it went really well. He did his takes in a logical order and I sat on the console throwing cues and we hardly fucked it up at all. Yes, being organized pays off in a bunch of ways, doesn't it. We are all surprised and delighted that the organized heart triumphs. Anyway we were having some problems with popped plosives, but didn't have a pop screen handy. I offered a very bacony splatter screen, but we opted to go back to his house to fetch our "real" pop filter.

The last thing we did was record the two screamed parts of the song. Only a single word in each part, sustained. One is "task", one is "rest". So symmetrical! No complaints from the neighbors - we did this in the middle of the day and only had to do a couple takes for each part.

I hope every apartment recording session can be as trouble free. This I pray to you oh gods of chaos and magnetism. Free me from the bonds of compulsion and denial. Thank you oyez oyez.
