Recording Day 4: Black n´White galore

Friends and fans,

Keyboard jockey Alex Jonsson enters the arena for a session in the Over the Hill studio. Micke is up early and makes that great coffee of his and while we wait for Robert (as usual) we decide to crack open the Moog and see what's inside because it's starting to sound funny. After a while we find the culprit being a couple of not-quite-correct-solderings who now had given way for the wear and tear of time.

Micke soldering away on the RougeNotice especially Micke's captivating smile, the lemon flavored muffins and the three VHS tapes taken secretly of the previous sessions from a hidden camera stashed up a bookshelf (exhibits "maze1", "maze2" and "maze3").

Alex had just got his Roland stage piano back from the shop (Thanks Putte for lending me that other one), and could show what many hours of practice can result in without having to fight with a bad case of inconsistent key velocity reading - another way of saying he previously played well but it sounded near awful :-). But now it sounded great and most of the piano sections were dealt with, in harmony with feeling.
