The Creative Process

Soo, we got to Adam's house with our instruments and Tyler brought his recording equipment. We were all set to record but we had yet to actually write the song. We decided to write it in the A blues format and the lyrics were just simple rhyming verses. We just wrote the lyrics as we played, so it was a pretty fluid process. Once we had the foundation of the song, we decided to set up the recording equipment. We only used two mics, one to record the band and one to record the vocals. We could have recorded each track individually, but we wanted a raw, live sound which is why we want for the whole ambient mic approach. Once the mic check was finished two hours after we started, we were ready to record.
