I mentioned in that last post being miced up – excuse me, apparently, mik<\/b>ed*<\/small><\/sup><\/em> up – and surrounded by drums, which was making it hard to use the keyboard on my studio’s digital audio workstation.<\/p>\n

This is why. I’ve been talking about doing a bunch of engineering for Leannan Sidhe recently, but the whole “possibly doing a guest appearance on their album” thing has gone unsaid – well, until now.<\/p>\n

Sadly, it is not<\/em> the return of Fake Drumkit. It’s two tracks of bodhran (tuned differently and effected quite<\/em> differently), two kinds of bells (Chinese and African), and a ratchet noisemaker which sounds a little like kokiriko, but with more harshness. If anything, the result is a little bit kabuki; I was afraid they’d find it a little sparse and alien. But they liked the test mix I sent over last weekend so much that they said it might not even need cello! And everything<\/em> they do has cello. So we’re on.<\/p>\n

The song is called “Once More,” and it’ll be on the album Mine to Love<\/i>. They have the money to complete recording and mixing, but are a little short on funds for mastering and replication, so have a campaign going for that. You want to hear it? Awesome. Help them pay me. XD<\/p>\n
