It is how I would describe our last couple days of recording. Layers of percussion, all sorts of musical interface controllers, reverse delays and leslie speakers… and that is simply today by itself. Looking at what we have thus far, I have a (rather unorganized) list of titles as well as working titles for songs we haven’t quite dived into yet…
Seagreen Light
Fireworks (Stars in Blue)
Orchestra one
La Luna
Suburban Pledge
Paper Song
Around the Lake
Seagreen Light demo version
Healthcare
Nature-y acoustic one
Blues song
And thus it was, and as it shall always be… back to work.
Peace.
Chris.

We will be releasing a new record in approximately 3 to 4 weeks. It will be entitled “Earthen Sighs”. The first single from the record is entitled “Fireworks (Stars in Blue)”. You can download it for free here:

We are having a contest for the record. Email your first and last name and address to earthensighs@hotmail.com to be entered in a drawing to win a free copy of the album, a physical copy of the Lily Demo and some other goodies. The Icily Polite will not share this information with anyone outside of the contest.

Please send this song to anyone and everyone you think may enjoy it. Happy 4th of July! http://funkyfighters.tripod.com/theicilypolite

Oh my… the last few days have been nothing but a flurry of ideas… there’s not much I can reveal at this moment but let me just say we are having an absolute blast. As I write this I’m wearing earplugs because Cardshark has his drums set up about ten feet from where I’m sitting and he’s giving his new 18 inch Zildjan china cymbal a go… I stepped outside for some water and saw Skintley sitting criss-cross in the kitchen with his laptop, totally immersed in something… Fa_Sha’s on the lawn with Westy and Fa_Show (who is leaving for the Dominican Republic in two weeks) and they’ve all got capoed acoustics… I’ll tell you more later, gotta go now.
Peace.
Chris.
