It’s Complicated 02
First vocals on this track were laid down yesterday, and hence the first version of this song being posted. This is the first track post “Fire Fire Fire EP” to be worked on, and while we were looking through our “sketch” folder yesterday we realized we’ve got another four or so songs to work on [...]
Left Behind 04
It didn’t take long for Anders to make a new mix for this one. Nothing much has changed however, just slightly more bass and a more polished sound.

Left Behind 03
This is the first available version of Left Behind. We might do some small edits or reworkings of this song, but we feel it’s almost complete as it is.

Fire Fire Fire 10
I ran the the vocals through a TLA 2051 mic preamp using its compressor and EQ instad of the DAWs. I think the result sounds slightly better, maybe because of some slight tube overdrive. I then ran this track through the Roland Space Echo, recording the wet signals reverb and a short slap back echo.
I’m [...]
Fire Fire Fire 09
Another recording of this song. Yeah, who knew? :)
We performed an advanced microphone test on these vocals. You can
All in all, I am much happier with this mix and the sound of the vocals now. Before I felt that they were muddled but now it cuts nicely through. What do you think?

Underachievers 08
New remix of this song. Anders did some tweaking and replaced the “wimpy” guitar with a piano in the chorus. I replaced the glockenspiel in the break with FM bells straight out of a Paul Young nightmare I had about the year 1986. What do you think?

If You Don’t Know Why 03
Måns and I talked on MSN on how to make the song less monotonous so I fiddled around with shortening the intro and only letting Måns sing every second phrase in the verse. I only had time to edit the first verse, so the second is still the same as in 02. I also did [...]
If You Don’t Know Why 02
Last night I re-recorded the vocals for If You Don’t Know Why, after changing a couple of lines in the lyrics. Also I tried a couple of different approaches in singing styles, and today Anders made a remix of the song, with a couple of new sounds, like an acoustic guitar.
In my opinion, this song [...]
If You Don’t Know Why 01
Last night I added a first vocal draft to the song previously known as “”. After finishing the first lyrics I changed the name of the song to “If You Don’t Know Why”, but I’m not sure this name will stick around.
This is a very rough recording, more of a vocal sketch really. This is [...]
Underachievers 07
Last night I worked with the vocals on Underachivers, and re-recorded the entire vocal track. I think this is better, but I’ll need a few more listens before I’m sure.
Also, Anders had previously tweaked the mix and sounds, so there are some changes, especially after the second chorus, during the break and outtro.
I made a [...]
