Been listing to some cool Kylie Minogue records recently, particularly Outta My Head, and my other half Katie is quite similar to Kylie, in fact Please Stay and Outta My Head sound more like her than her usual material.

Our manager has just got us our new premises, so we’ll be able to record live drums, loud guitars and stuuf again for the first time in about four years. Katie’s also recovered to the point where she can resume her singing career, thanks for all the love and support!

This is a nice Drum & Bass meets pop number, we found a basic version from a few years ago and overdubbed, we used a MIDI gate filter effect on the backup vocals.

AMG is a cool little VST plugin. Whilst we’re now recording entirely with Linux, we still use the Windows version of Reason 3 which actually runs better on KX Studio, and I run Cubase 5 on my Windows laptop which I use to host plugins that are Windows only.

Ardour is shaping up to be a very capable and functional package, we’ve needed an open source Pro Tools clone for a long time, if you’ve any spare cash or time please consider offering it to the programs developers!

Peace


Andrew and Katie
