Current Projects for October 2012

There are a few things brewing at Tsyklon Labs this month. First up, we have the Fall 2012 Song (yeah, may as well just tell you) – Fascination Street by The Cure. Sort of taking the version on their Mixed Up album and going a little crazy with that. Also working on a cover of Fast Car by Tracy Chapman. Same feel as the original, but with a different arrangement (including an Irish Tenor Banjo). Also, Laika and the Sputniks are working on a new Christmas Cassingle for 2012. Stay tuned!

New Remixes Underway

I’ve been invited to collaborate on a couple of remixes and I’m excited to stretch my Ableton Live muscles a little more. More details to follow soon!

New Stuff Underway

OK, so the song is at Mastering and should have it back next week! Working on the Fall 2012 Song (take a perfectly good Cure song, pile on some Trent Reznor piano, some Skrillex bass and some Munky guitars and run over all of it with a snow blower) as well as some original soundtrack type stuff work too. Laika also has a new Christmas song, so things at Tsyklon Labs are getting busy!

So much going on!

We find ourselves at the end of July and WTF is my Summer 2012 song? Eh, working on it? There are three tracks that I want to improve upon this morning and then that should do it. Off to mastering, so fingers crossed for this week. Also working on the first original instrumental as Tsyklon (the opening salvo of something I will call “Intergalactic Suite for Scoundrels and Sinners”). Sorry for the delays, but I really want this to be awesome and I’m not entirely happy with it yet.

Moving Day Approaches

In another day, it will be time to pack up the studio for the big move. Moving into a new temp space at the new house, with the eventual plan of a proper studio above our yet to be built garage. Cables are packed, racks are powered down, just need to finish next weekend’s assignment for school in the next day or two before going offline for a couple weeks. See you on the other side!
