Once we got back to the studio and started working on the drums, we bounced them on to a 24trk Radar, and started to track the rest of the Band. 

Ben(Bass) was first up, he uses a really old Fender Jazz with an Ampeg SVTii all valve monster with a 6×10 Cab, we mic’ed it with a Sm57 and a Heil mic through an API mic pre and the 57 though the Shadow Hills, turned the amp to eleven it was that simple! It took over a week to track the Bass, Ben is very particular about what he hears so it had to be spot on.

Then came the guitars, Mike had about 6 guitars he bought along with him, 12 string Ricky, two telecasters, and couple of les paul style guitars, plus with my 6 string ricky we had plenty to choose from.  At the time Mike played through a Mesa amp & Marshal cab. We had also borrowed an old 1950’s marshal head & Cab from the Delays, as they only live round the corner, I had recorded them a long time ago when they were Idoru so we’ve become friends over the years, we also had a Hi-Watt 100w hand wired head & cab plus an Orange Tiny Terror and a Rocker 30. We would normally couple a few together to get the tone we were after, the Orange and the Old 1950’s Marshall paired up quite nice, the Hi-Watt was generally super clean and used at very loud volumes then paired up with some thing dirty. In fact the Orange Tiny Terror was used to track pretty much all the rhythm guitars for Brown Bread…at only 7 watts it’s a monster little thing.

At this stage we had almost all the main parts done, all on the Radar recorder ready for mixing.

In Part 3 we’re recording session musicians and mixing.

Live at the legendary Bath music venue Moles

Live at The Railway Winchester

From the new Building Humans album, this is the first of many tracks to be available to download from the site.

This songs overall impact is highly charged, emotional music delivered in a grandiose style.

Sine Star Project’s influences are hard to pin down, a few elements point to some of the great classical composers, but rock influences are also apparent including Queen, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Buckley, Muse, Tool and Pink Floyd to name but a few.
