STARKWEATHER STUDIO UPDATE

Studio Notes (10/3/2009-10/7/2009)

SATURDAY
Started early Saturday afternoon. Load in up the god awful fucking stairs. Set up kit and spread Harry's shit out to easier mic. Harry brought his junkyard goodies. Saw blade, hollow core drill bits, ribbon crasher, Hammerax noise maker. Tuned drum heads and set up mics. Vin's bass rig in the isolation room. Same setup as last time. Played through my rig for scratch tracks.

Started tracking Drug at about 8 o'clock. Did 3 or 4 takes. First keeper take 23 continuous minutes. Take 2 better last 7 minutes. Drug Holiday done. Song so long that listening to the playback to find mistakes is difficult. I cannot concentrate for 30 minutes straight. Alap edited 2 sections together and we were set to record Space Jam.
