Statement: GGD&Z was made 1. just for fun and 2. celebrating the 10 years of SF (which started by covering other bands), and as anyone can see, thus it contains mainly coversongs as tribute to the inspirators. The future of SF will be purely about making original music, and getting deeper into defining the term "scifi grind" better through the music. Keep in mind, that in space no one can hear you grind.

After revisions

I have corrected some things and somewhat satisfied with the results. Antti will surely let us know if something needs tweaking, or if everything is ok.

Stay tuned.


Weekends to ya,

Damn deal done, but not quite yet

Funnily Timo happened to write and kind of predict things exactly in his previous post:

"No recording ever goes down effortlessly and this one was no exception to that rule"

I just listened the supposedly final version of the whole package - and while it made me grin a lot, in how good it feels, I also found few things that will have to be corrected before putting the release out. Mainly some vocal tasks, two songs need bit more recording to make them work 100% - and one ambient noise section gets more alien noise to it. No more than that.

If all goes well, the GGD&Z will be released during the coming weekend.

EDIT: Uploaded the ancient SF releases and now they are available after quite a long break at www.scumfusion.com - just keep in mind that it's 1. ancient material and 2. with 128-160 kbps ... that's the form they were once done back in the day. They are the original files in original shapes, for better or worse.

Done!!!

Finally.

Recording, mixing and mastering the brand new Scumfusion offering is finished. Antti will surely fetch the files from the net asap, and they will be made available for download very soon.

No recording ever goes down effortlessly and this one was no exception to that rule. No animals were harmed though, neither did I sustain serious injuries during the process.

I hope the results are listenable and maybe even enjoyable!

Soon to be released

Timo just got all the ambient / industrial noise elements finished for the GGD&Z package. The Z-files will be drowned within those elements ... still some final messing around with the generic audio things based on what I heard from Timo today. It sounds that the GGD&Z might get released within a week. Perhaps on weekend, who knows. We shall see.
