You guys. I’m getting excited. Seriously. Why? Two reasons:
Firstly, (I think that’s a word? I know that secondly is) we had a blast this week recording The Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel. If for some reason you’ve never heard this song, or Simon & Garfunkel (gasp!) you should check it out:

I think our version is going to be pretty cool. I’m pretty biased. We had a great time recording anyway. We tracked everything in our little apartment, meaning we had to get a bit creative with our space.
We made a special vocal booth between our mattress and futon:
The control room/our closet:
And my personal favorite, tracking snare in our bathroom (clearly I don’t know how to play):
So much fun. Instrumentation for the song: clarinet, glockenspiel, acoustic, mandolin, epic choir, upright bass, kick, snare, and hopefully some trumpet.
On to the second reason for my excitedness:
