Triangle of new tunes

The streak of grind burst continues. Combination of frustration and having let the ideas for songs be boiling for longer time seems to be a winning combination. Like yesterday, I'm really happy with the songs I laid down today. Perhaps even more happy today.

The song lengths can give again some kind of idea of how the songs are. First two songs, even that they are totally different by structure, ended up the exactly same length (1 min 33 sec - though there are few seconds of empty space in all the songs, rough mixes as they are). The third one is the shortest song so far, being around 50 seconds long only.

About this forthcoming SF album which is under work:

This album will not go past 30 minutes mark, quite certainly. At least that's the aim for now. There is a chance though, that the space/scifi elements might make it over 30 minutes long but that remains to be seen. At this point it feels that there won't be long space elements in this package, could be that the space soundscapes are built inside the songs, more likely. Where possible / where it fits to the content of the song musically and perhaps lyrically speaking. It looks like there will be about 20-25 songs overall if the song lengths keep staying around that 1 min 30 sec length. Currently it's over 14 minutes already with the 10 song bases - though there are several seconds extra time per song at this stage.

Also, what I've written in past, still counts; Timo quite probably has no time for Scumfusion during 2011, so this album will be fully worked during Spring 2012. Which feels fine, no need to rush for change. And it's better that way since we will be trying live drums with dubbing for extra extremity factor. We'll see what happens with that, and when. Gonna be an interesting experiment for sure.
