Artist: James Blake
Producer: James Blake, Dom (Mt. Kimbe), Jason Lader
Recording Engineer: Nick Breton
RECAP:
Day 4 with James, Dom, Jason and company! Dom and his brother Antony came in first and started recording guitar and bass over one of the tracks we started Tuesday. We set up the Twin and Antony played my Les Paul. The loop is very complex so it took some time to sort out the chords but he laid down a solid 15 minutes of guitar for Dom to sort. Tuned up the bass and did the same, bass went smoother because he’d already learned what to play. We ended up with great tone from both instruments and Jason arrived just as we finished tracking.
We set up his A-100 synth for another day of madness! Jason and Dom went down the rabbit hole again with an hour plus of jamming. They had some great sections which we previewed for James when he arrived. I ran to grab some cables and Nathan took over to keep everything running. When I returned they had a solid amount of new work recorded and were listening and making a game plan.
Another great day in with these guys, such a great crew! Got to meet Dan and Nathan today, looking forward to getting to know all of these guys as we keep working.
