Studio Diary Part 5: Bass and Ass



Howdy! It's me, Roger "Hevi" Ravonen again writing in behalf of Miksu, who's currently too shitfaced to write. Soooo...

This was an interesting day alright; Miksu (aka Rauno Ratakisko) came in with a bag of booze, the 5 string bass which is used by Catamenia and the fattest motherf*cking strings you could find! That and some Big Muff distortion... damn! It all went actually REALLY smooth, not like you can see this on the vid, but yeah. Some went in with a single take, which was nice. Miksu proved to be a real powerful and solid bass player with a cold-headed attitude! But since he IS a bass player, he tends to be quite odd at times... most of the time really. And he shares the same tendency for drinking as other bass players.

Anyway... With a good work rate we managed to get most of the songs tracked that day. Only couple of songs were left for hangover.

EDITOR'S NOTE:

This time I actually went pretty much all the way on the thought of doing a sort of 'inverted' studio diary, so to speak. The idea being simply just excluding all the 'good' and 'formal' material and use only the 'backstage' material... the goofy shit. I think this reflects Miksu's personality in The Undivine. Next video, which is about Paka's gtr tracking will be more umm... controlled.
