Stormcellar Band Home Page

I am unable to predict which of the song collections will actually turn into a finished product or exactly what they will be called. Sort of.

I mean I have an idea. Ok I probably know. Or sort of.

Remember the good old days when we had 5 mins to cram an album in and everything had better be organised, buster?

Ok well that didnt exactly exist either.

I'm starting to wonder how much of this I just plain make up.

Oh yeah drums due in....10 days? Are these tracks even finished? We dont have enough done done to do a second day. Yet. Sort of.

Unless we get this other stuff done.

I don't know which proposed release I am writing for. I am fairly sure I could be replaced by one of these bots at a very reasonable rate, just say 'crikey' and 'can I have some tea please' and who'd know the difference? (borrowing from some interdimensional mice).

So drums huh?

paypal.me/stormcellarband. yeah send me cash. We need to pay the bots off. They don't work for cheap, they unionised.

So we have a date for recording drums.

That's usually the start not the finish.

This feels pretty weird. I get it though. first time our guide tracks have been to Tempo. Ish.

Otherwise Theo has had to set everything first.

Also, limited live gigging to roadtest tracks.

Thus here we are doing it this way. Ok. What exactly is it we're doing btw?

We've been toying with release types for a while and it's back on the menu.

'Album' (yeah?) vs 'Record (ok yeah makes more sense, like a 'record' of where you are at) and then 'Playlist' cos basically:

The CD is dead. (long live).

 

Vinyl is for cool kids and we're not that cool. See by definition....Ahem....

Radio is dead. Did I mention that? Not dead dead but a very sick parrot. Pining for the fjords as they say. Overtaken by podcasts and auto linking phones and cars that allow people to travel is a bubble of their own media choices.

Playlists, youtube.

 

Hi. Welcome to the 21st century, enjoy your stay.


To borrow from upcoming work - superhumans are not coming to save us. let's sing and dance until the robots replace us.

I have a bit of a vibe to release the first 6 songs as a single release. The the next one. Sort of. Why? cos we have the artwork and cos...maybe it doesn't matter anymore? There's no 'do this for this reason' to releasing stuff. Or it there?

Who knows.

Meanwhile, I had a blast making Devils Preacher and now I got a ping on for a few more story songs cos I already paid for the filters and they'd work.

Plenty to crack on with, as best we can. Sponsor the madness here: paypal.me/stormcellarband
