Latest lab news. http://pedrogil.net/blog/2009/10/17/latest-lab-news-2/ http://pedrogil.net/blog/2009/10/17/latest-lab-news-2/#comments Sat, 17 Oct 2009 20:37:03 +0000 Pedro Gil http://pedrogil.net/blog/?p=110 All done with the first half of the track list; now, off to the rest.

Heath was able to record drums for four songs: Lite Beer, Rocks and Stars, Two-Second Stranger, and The Adventures of Ninja and Capri. Janina will be out of commission for a few weeks, so scratch bass trackes were laid; by the time she gets back, the rest of us should already be done with our parts.

Getting closer, peeps. We’re getting closer.
