I've moved into the next phase...

ok, so you might not be excited but I sure as hell am.  Tonight, my album BIG was warmly received into the loving arms of Sterling Sound Mastering Studios in New York City.  Yes... I'm almost there.  A few months back I sent one of the songs away to Sterling to be mastered by 2 different chappies there.  It was so I could hear what 2 different sets of ears could come up with for the 'right' sound for the album.  Whatever the 'right' sound is.  As it turns out, that little experiment nearly backfired completely as the song came back with striking differences in sound... however... both were incredibly awesome.  In the end the decision I made was a toughy but i think a goody.  I'm getting a chap named 'Chris Gehringer' to master the album.  He's got a ridiculously cool resume` of albums under his belt that runs the whole gamut of the 'biz'.  He's been everywhere... man.

Unfortunately I won't be in New York to see the magic happen, every single dollar I've had has been sunk into this mighty mighty album.  What a dream it would be though to walk the streets of Manhattan with my woolly coat on, making my way up 10th Avenue near Pier 57 walking through those revered doors and watching Chris master my album.  That would... rock.

Alas, I will wait for its stealthy return fom home base... I can't wait to hear the shiny shiny wonderous glossy aftertouch that will surely be present when 'she' gets back.  Excited?  Much?

The lads from Debaser have been working on the album artwork too, and they're not far from completion.  So the next NEXT phase after this one? Once Big is back in my hand from Sterling?  I'll be shopping the bastard around for the best distribution deal around.  that's what you call INDEPENDENT, kids...

Hey stop freaking out.  It's coming ok?  he he...

Love Court.
