Hi Alex,<br>
The album is great. Did you record it with a band or by yourself?<br>

I wrote, recorded, mixed and played everything myself (my ego is
reaching critical mass ;)) It's taken almost precisely a year to do
this, I released the first tracks january 26th 2011.. I've recently
bought a cello too and my next songs will be a oneman quartet rather
than a trio. It might take some time tho cause the stroke action on
the cello isn't as easy to 'fake'. With this I mean that it either
sounds good or _reeaallly_ horrible so you really have to know how
to do it right.. Plucked instruments and the mechanical hammer
action on the piano are alot more forgiving on this mather so it's
alot easier to get away with not so great playing :D I also think
I'll release later works in larger chunks.. we'll see what the
future brings...<div class="im"><br>

<br></blockquote></div><br>Hi Alex.<br><br>I'm just listening to the downloaded album and I'm totally agree with the other LAU folks, the album is really good: a tasty mix of Jazz, experimentation and even a little progressive at times (ie the sound of the Mellotron on track 5).<br>
I think this won't be the last time I listen to it.<br><br>So, you have already list the gear you used to record. BTW, very clean and professional recording. I would like to know something about how was the process to the final mix, given that you played it all and it seems in different (maybe distant) points in time.<br>
