Anal Dungeon Rough Mix

A demo mix of “Anal Dungeon” – a song dedicated to the Buffalo weirdo band Anal Pudding – was created yesterday. I made it just to see how it’d go in the real mixing phase, and also to give this pudding to some folks.

Even though it was a pre-final version and a rough mix, it took me 3 whole days to mix and master. Looks like I underestimated the vast enormity of VME’s new songs, many of which are fully orchestrated (not necessarily in a classical sense) with tens of, hundreds of, thousands of, or maybe not that many but still many enough, different instruments.

Once I get done with the current vocal recording phase, I’ll replace the scratch guitar parts with final versions of them, then onto the real mixing and mastering phase. It’ll be awhile, since I’m the only one doing this and I can’t have multiple myselves which I wish I could.

I’m sending this rough mix of Anal Dungeon to a few folks in the press and also to a few of my friends around the globe just to let ‘em know I ain’t fuckin’ around and this new album will sound extra-bitchen. Stay tuned.

PS. Yesterday I attended a classical concert where my pianist friend Sachio Yoshida played. I used to hate opera singing, but I guess I’m growing old and somehow found myself starting to like it. The fact that the singer was a Baritone helped. I was deeply moved, moved to tears. Speaking of which, the aforementioned new album has parts that sound like a low-budget high school opera. Sure to make you have a good laugh.

Aigh, talk to ya lata.

hugs,
