I have been in the studio collaborating with my producer musician friend George, working on some of my radio friendly songs, they always start acoustic, we're currently doing dark trip hop electro versions of some of them that are similar to Mata Hari the band I'm in so shall put it all together and get an animation made about the story all the songs tell together.
Its been great fun, how ever the Neve unit one day is your best friend the next day it dies. So is a little tempriemental, but some of what we've done sounds ace, quite experimental.
I like the Sleaze Jazz stuff of Nick Cave and Tom Waits and the Gospel music of Mahalia Jackson, if I could make a gospel record would be great fun, go to an old church with loads of mics a piano in a small room a big room, choirs, organs string quartets.
But also do stripped back versions, so using a small chapel, start acoustic would be so good, a great release, I love anthemic gospel music that just washes over you, so one day I shall do that invite all my musical friends to help me, will be a huge party. I'll do it in the summer. awesome.
