You know I expected more, so much more out of you

During the recording sessions last week at Marcata Recording in scenic New Paltz, NY and at NY HED in the not-as-scenic Lower East Side, we took a few short videos on our digital cameras. Edited together, this short video captures some of the feel of the recording sessions:
In addition, Holt penned a very detailed recording journal.
So, we’re headed into the studio tomorrow to throw down the latest Bosch tracks on 2″ of analog tape. We also have cameras and computers and will be chronicling the sessions daily at boschcast.com/recording-journal/.
Things may seem quiet here in The Bosch country, but we’ve got some big things on the radar. We’re currently in pre-production for a new recording and will be in the studio in January. What does that mean? Details. Getting all the details in order, from playing all the notes and rhythms together to having tape for the recordings.
We will be recording in glorious analog sound, filling a 2 inch wide reel of analog tape with 2 minute long songs. (And some songs that even crack the 3 minute mark.) Once again, Duane Lundy will be producing and mixing. Two studios will be implicated in the process– The Walkmen’s Marcata Recording in scenic New Paltz, NY and Matt Verta-Ray’s (Speedball Baby, Heavy Trash) N.Y. HED in the somewhat less scenic Lower East Side.
The end result will be an EP released in early 2007. We’ll be revisiting some of the songs from this summer’s demos, rearranged versions of some live staples, and brand new songs. And once in the studio, we will be taking photos and posting updates whenever possible. After that, the songs will be mixed, mastered, pressed and released. Hopefully in that order.
Until then, happy holidays! Light a menorah, decorate a tree, drink a holiday beverage, or enjoy the unseasonably warm weather here in NY.
There’s only one musicial extravaganza in NYC on Friday that will kick off with the swinging sounds of The Bosch. So, be there.
It’s at Crash Mansion, which is located at 199 Bowery (at Spring St.) There will be an open bar from 9-10. That happens to coincide with our set time. Fantabulous! Our good friends The Walk Ons will be joining us in the pursuit of ROCK. MTV Korea will be in the house! Maggie Kim will release a video! Tenacious D’s The Pick of Destiny will represent! We’ll use many exclamation points!
And you, yes you, can get in for FREE, but only if you RSVP to rsvp@newyorkunderbelly.com. Let them know that you’d like to be on the list to see The Bosch. And then, show up at Crash Mansion at 9 PM on Friday.
So, to reiterate:
The Bosch.
Crash Mansion (199 Bowery).
Friday November 10.
9 PM.
We’ll see you there!
-Holt, Valerie, Andrew, Matt
