Silent Film - Update May 21st


Only two full rehearsals to go before the show (10th June) - here is why we are not worried!!!

We have made a lot of progress over the last few weeks and now have a full set of tracks all set out to match the content of the film.

Everyone has contributed a track and/or is playing an instrument or singing using effects

All the equipment works and we have decided on a way of getting it all plugged in and working pretty quickly.

We are using Logic, Reaktor and Ableton Live software as well as using DJ decks, Akai MPC sampler and various MIDI controllers.

The music sounds great...really great. And I am not just saying that.

We have one of the fastest bass players on earth

John is a wicked song writer, guitarist and piano player

Ralph is scratching "whaaat" and "whistles" like grandmaster DXT in ROCKIT. yo yo yo. And he has composed a great song on electric piano

We the two angelic voices of Tegan and Millie and we put them through various audio effects!!! cool


David and Toby have come up with some cool tracks using Logic and Ableton

Shane is one of the cornerstones of the project and keeps producing cool ideas including a brand new track

Adam is firing on all samples and providing added Kaoss

Joe is using Reaktor and making some great sounds along the way. He adds something to tracks using his new Korg controller
