patrice and i lugged all of our stuff over to the momentarily unoccupied st anns warehouse dressing room to start on our first record. we loaded up the old zipcar minivan yesterday and drove around sunny brooklyn jamming to hot 97. with everything set up, we were able to come back today and record drums for seven of our songs in about three hours. patrice is a machine. i'm really excited to be getting moving on this - and i'm curious to hear how it will all turn out. this is the fun time where a two-piece band can sound like a twenty-piece if we want.
i'm definitely motivated after the somewhat grueling palmyra recording sessions yielded a five-song e.p. i'm really proud of. it's called
the city, on repeat. being able to see into the future makes it a lot easier to haul a bunch of heavy stuff and be cooped up in a small room on the first beautiful week of the year.
more to come from makeshiftstudioland.
