Making of Band 'DC'...........one year on the line.......

haapy birthday dc (i know its too late, but im happy anyway! i just saw it now.)

Adrian, i dont want to disappoint you, but i dont think we're gonna have an album anytime, you see, we still havent finished the first song, believe me, each song will take more than months to be finished, we might have 2 or maybe 3 songs each year, and why you're wasting your time about booklets or album designs or the order of the songs? we cant make an album and how we're gonna publish it and print the artworks? and who will ever buy it? i doubt if anyone at here buy it, i dont care about these things if someone can do that or not, i'll be happy if there will be a real album someday, im talking about the record, we're not going to finish it, i think its better if each time we finish a song, we make it available here for jovitalkers to download it and tell what they think about it. i think its better if we forget the album and work on single songs.

dont count it as im tired and i want to leave the band, i really enjoy this band and i really want to play on dc songs, and ill do my best to make more songs, but u better think about what i said.

Arash, that is exactaly thinking about sometimes now. I'm really think we should go by song by sone instead of wait till for whole ablum to finish. Coz i'm sure it take ages and since most of musicans are busy with there other workm, it doesn't appear too bright for album at a moment. I rather go for a single to relase first(don't know exactly how to do it).
Once we finish HBT, i think we should release it somehow(may even give for download).

Anyone anything to say about this matter?.

yeah allwyn, thats what im saying, we're not doing this for money to release it, its just for fun and for trying to make a group work while we are all in different corners of the world, im saying when we finished HBT, we can also have WILD X WIND to do an artwork of it as if its a single, just to make an image for our work, and then ask peter to put it online and everyone can listen to it and download it(ofcourse only jovitalkers). then we can make another thread and ask people to comment on it.

Perhaps we should poll the denizens of Dry County, see if they'd prefer a whole CD, or individual releases. I do like the idea of releasing the whole album as singles, but on the other hand, I like the idea of releasing the whole CD at once. It should be more up to the musicians of the band and the manager than it should be up to me though.

We're not going to sell the CD, we never were. Too many copyright conflicts with the D.C. theme. It was always going to be a download release.

I don't know what Britain has for summer breaks, if they're similar to US summer breaks, but I was thinking that the way this was going to work was that Tawtami was going to record several vocal tracks over the summer, and then the musicians of the band would go from there. It'd be a whole bunch of half-finished tracks, and then over the next few months, those song would be finished. I was working on several assumptions here, and probably a few of them are wrong, as I know nil about recording.

Adrian

the problem with that is that in the recording process, vocals go down last usually witht he exception of backign vox and any punch ins done.

and without at least a basic backtrack with the progression then its goign to be very easy to lose the rythmn and melody and got out of tune

summer brakes doesnt help it adrian, we cant have more than 2 or maybe 3 songs throught the summer, it might be easy to record a whole album in even a month, but since we arent together, we cant make that happen. i really say u should forget about the album.

yeah jim got that right... BUT - im pretty much out of the picture till july now, and then ill have moved house and been away and stuff and ive got 2 months to kill, SO i will be getting a lot of stuff (including my own album) recorded so ill do the DC stuff at the same time to work from...

then people can take it as it comes.. as it is.. im packing at the moment ready to move, my exams are in 2 weeks and i leave the country in 3.

arash: a little pessimistic there... i see what you're saying.. but it is possible...

by all means poll the rest of the board... and once we get going it will be easier... i promise.

sara

i dont think there is a need for a poll, we have a manager and we ourselves can dicide what to do...

Ok here what i think we should o. We should wait for a while likt till summer gets over, if we still not able to do any progress anywhere, then we should go for releasing singles, if we really able to record some more songs, i guess album is possible.
So lets wait till end of summer and then we decide. What u guys think?.

arash: no need to be nasty about it!
i was only responding to someone elses comment previously.
