Studio update 3

Another productive week in the studio so things are moving on nicely with the new album. I wonder what you're all going to make of it...

One slight hitch has been that my wrist injury is getting worse again; it seems the position of the mouse in the studio is making me bend in ways which I would rather not and I can't find any position that works. The software I use has loads of hierarchical drop down menus which unfortunately require twists of the wrist which are not doing me any favours. How I suffer for my art...

Meanwhile, we've got the website forum up and running again and have hopefully solved the spam problem.

Other than that nothing to say really. If I don't update beforehand then happy Christmas to everyone and see you in 2009.

Studio update 2

Things are coming on slowly in the studio, not the quickest recording I've ever done but I'm making progress so should still be on course to release the new album next year.

Working with Maya again today on some of her stuff, nice to have a bit of variety and a pleasure to work with such a good singer.

Outside the studio we've had to temporarily shut down the website forum due to some very concerted spamming. I'm trying not to take it personally but the sites it was advertising were Chinese... ;-) I remember when the internet seemed like this wonderful new world where only good things would happen...
