Well the captains album is going well. Were still on the working title YSP, but maybe we shold think of others. We've layed down the first half of the songs and have been stuck in the process of mastering them , trying to capture all of the beutiful magic we got in the mix, but making sure we have the same sort of volume as commercial tracks, which is a lot easier said than done. After crying for several days about our lack of bass compared to little rogo, we decided the only way forward was to use Isotope's Ozone 4. Now Captain Dan is usually against all this juggery pokery, harmonic enhancers, stereowideners and volumer maximisers, but in this case it seems to be giving us good results. Its very powerful and is a realy just adding that final layer of niceness to our mix, some would say the money shot. But time will tell I guess, its easy to overdo this stuff, last night we got stuck in a loudness war with ourselves.
Anyway so what that means is you might hear some more sneaky peaks from the album soon, but we've still got the rest of it to even start (which is gonna be fun as we've decided we need to reacreate all of the samples we nicked from R kellys sopa opera)
but keep your pingus crossed YSP is coming soon, like henry the fifth. in your ears.
