@bsak I have letters for you if you are short :-)
@RandyCoppinger Back diffusers are custom built by his specs as well. I'm going to get that done in my space as well. Thank you internet.
@RandyCoppinger Addi spent a lot of work getting this right. Here is a closer view: http://yfrog.com/nbhotyj
@dhmorton It's admittedly not without risks here, but a live volcano adds drama....
Toggi - Wonderful
Thursday, 19 June 2008 17:57

We just finished mixing and mastering Toggi's new single, entitled 'Wonderful'.

If there ever was an 'inside job' this is it. Composed by Toggi and the band, Wonderful was produced by Bjarki and Don Pedro, and mixed by Addi800 over at Syrland Studios. Radioplay will start next week, but since you have come all the way to the internet, it wouldn't be fair of us not to let you have a listen:

 
 
 
 

While you listen, here are some production details for you:

Wonderful was recorded on May 27th 2007 at Studio 12B in Reykjavik. That's right, more than a year ago.

We had a strict policy of one song per day for the session, and recorded 2 over that weekend. The whole band played all takes of the track, no scratch takes were allowed, we tried to keep a live feel and performance.

Consequently the band took a break, Toggi spawned a beautiful son (with some help from his fiance), and was absolutely too happy and fluffy to write lyrics for the songs. We tried our hardest to make his life miserable, finally succeded, and started recording vocals and minor overdubs last month at our own studio, Wömbin™. From there straight to Addi 800 for mixing. The other song, Silly Old Song will be released in approximately 2 months time.
