Recording Session Plans...

So continuing on from our previous group me and Alie have planned out two recording sessions so far which should give us enough time to record the best part of six songs. We still have a lot of planning to do for another possible two recording sessions but this is what we've come up with so far.

Recording Session One:

Recording: Three original songs.
Instruments: Piano and Vocals.
Equipment:

• 2 x C1000s Microphones
• 1 x C414 Microphone
• 3 x Stands
• 3 x Mic Clips
• 2 x X.L.R Cables
• 1 x Music Stand
• 1 x Headphones

Recording Session Two:

Recording:

• Kate Voegele - All I See
• Evanescence - My Immortal
• Third song is yet to be confirmed

Instruments: Piano and Vocals.
Equipment:

• 2 x C1000s Microphones
• 1 x C414 Microphone
• 3 x Stands
• 3 x Mic Clips
• 3 x X.L.R Cables
• 1 x Music Stand
• 1 x Headphones

Floor plan for the above recording sessions. 

Recording Session Notes: For this recording session we may be having drums and guitar being recorded for these songs as well however, in this recording session we'll just be recording the piano and vocals for these three songs.

So we've taken the hint...

So we've got the idea that the others have left our group even though they still haven't told us. They made it pretty clear they had left our group by joining in with other groups recording sessions and planning their own thing so we've taken the hint and planned on ahead with our project. Although it puts a spanner in the works by having only me and Alie as a group we're working as hard as we can to make this work and to get the best grade possible. It's annoying that they've decided to just leave us half way through the project as this means that me and Alie have to record a whole new set of songs in half the time we've originally had so i'm pretty annoyed about that.

Despite all of the above me and Alie have planned out recording sessions (read following post) and have agreed on some designs for an album cover. So we're getting things done it's just a matter of being able to get it all done well and how we want in the time we have left. I have hope we'll get there though!

So there's talk...

Earlier this week me and Alie heard that there's talk of the other three members of our group wanting to form their own group which would leave me and Alie on our own. As we haven't actually been told this by the other members of our group we've sat down and worked out our back up plan if this does happen.

Our plan consists of similar ideas that we had in mind in the first place, an acoustic EP consisting of six tracks. We've chosen six new songs and are going to use the other tracks that have been recorded for personal use instead. 

Tracklisting (not in order):

• Kate Voegele - Kindly Unspoken
• Kate Voegele - All I See 
• Hot Chelle Rae - Tonight, Tonight
• Elliot Minor - The Liar Is You
• Evanescence - My Immortal
• The Mitch Hansen Band - Lullaby

We also chose a back up song (The All American Rejects - It Ends Tonight) in case we couldn't do the last one (The Mitch Hansen Band - Lullaby) and we may include an original song as a bonus track that we're both going to write but we're still deciding whether to do this. As well as this we have a pretty good idea for a possible album artwork which Alie is in the process of designing. So we have a pretty full proof plan and are quite happy with it. 

Although it's been pretty full on with re-deciding and changing everything we've done so far, it's been a big step forward from all the mess we were in. Lets hope things go to plan, we'll see.
