13 . 02 . 08 - Vocal Athletics/recording

We're recording this week. Four new songs - Momentum, Sorcerers, Bones and Roundabouts. Nice, succinct titles. They're lovely, full songs, with a definite leap on from 'Control'. I think I'm just beginning to understand GoodBooks songs now, whatever that means. A couple of them are longer than most of our old songs, one of them even flirting with the 4 minute mark (!). But maybe that's just because it's slower than songs can sometimes be.

29 . 01 . 08 - Berlin I love you..

Ok, so this is it. The last blog from me from Berlin, after tomorrow I am no longer a Berliner..and it's been incredible, totally captivating and so much fun. We've met some amazing people, people who've influenced us in so many ways, possibly more than they realise. They've taken us into their families, their friendship groups and made us feel like we were at home, thank you.

Roxy Music/Kate Bush/GoodBooks

Hello, how is everyone these days?

It’s all a bit non-interactive, this whole making an album process, what with the absence of live shows and everything. But important that we get it right before we’re out again. Today me and JP have decided that the song we’re working sounds like either the best track off a Roxy Music album or else the 4th best track of a Kate Bush album. We’ve spent the last week and a half recording some songs, which are now in the hifis of two men we wish to produce the album, seeing what they think they could bring to them. For the last day of recording, there were workmen chipping and sanding away right outside the windows, and so we were moaning about how irritating it was, and how we had to monitor really loudly etc etc… the next day on our way in to tidy everything else, the same guy asked if we were recording again, because he’d had to listen to the same stretch of music over and over again the day before, and he’d nearly gone mad. Beautiful. Who’s up for the DJ set in March at Cargo? In the words of dear Will from Horsebox, let’s all twat one out together. Right, I’m getting back to my 80s synths, gated snare drums and side-chained compressors
