about

Inertia Diary IV - February.

The only rule I applied this time was to write simple acoustic numbers and record them all with a very basic set-up consisting of one guitar (or uke/mandolin) and one condenser microphone. The intention was to record a live 'roomy' ambience for these songs, even the drum machines were amplified to capture the space between the source and the microphone. Only one song features any overdubs, which is 'Melodies Are Remedies', as it required a Piano and String Synths. I'm sure you'll let me off with it! ;)

As with all the 30 day projects so far, expect rough edges along the way.

Recorded across a rather snowy and windy February 2013.

**Update - 'Japanese Bonus Track' is a one-off February 29th recording for 2016's leap year. Written and recorded especially on 29/2/16.
