NEWS FROM THE STUDIO!!
Hi everyone!

We're still working hard on Almah's second album, and the results are making us really happy! Since the last report we have worked on guitars, bass and acoustic guitars, and it's all done now.

As soon as the drums were done, Paulo Schroeber and Marcelo Barbosa started recording the basic guitar tracks. On the first day we spent many hours looking for the right sound, trying different setups, guitars, amplifiers and microphone positions. In the end we came to a killer sound, but with a very particular character, that doesn't remind you of every other metal band around. The guitar we used was a 7 string Carvin that belongs to Brendan Duffey, owner of Norcal Studios, where we are recording, and also a guitar player. From all the various guitars we tried, it was by far the best.

But the best of all was not the tone itself, but the way Marcelo and Paulo played the songs. It's funny because they have their own unique styles, but at the same time they complete each other perfectly. Everyone was quite surprised with the level of musicianship that we achieved in the band now. The rhythm tracks were awesome, and the solos even better! Jaw dropping guitar duets with lots of feel and technique can be heard all over. From the speed of light licks to the soulful bends, it's all there! Sounds like they've been playing together for ages! We were all thrilled with the results!

We had a very good surprise with the pleasant visit of Mike Stone [Queensryche guitar player] to the studio. He was in Brazil doing shows with Queesryche, and was kind enough to offer his great contribution. He recorded a beautiful solo in one song. In return all we could do was take him to one of the best burger places in Sao Paulo. He seemed to like it!

Then it was time for the bass. All Felipe's Yamaha basses were taken to the studio, together with tons of gear to be tested. After a couple hours we came to the right sound, using a small Roland combo, the CB-100, with two microphones plus the DI. He had all the bass tracks done after 11 hours, including a beautiful fretless in one of the ballads. Felipe used his Yamaha TRB6P2 and BBNE2 basses.

Next step was to do the acoustic tracks, which were recorded by Edu and Felipe, since the guitars players had already left back to their cities. They used a steel stringed Takamine captured with two microphones for everything. Edu took care of the detailed harmonies and Felipe did the solos and overdubs. In one track we have an E-Bow solo which reminds us of a bowed instrument.

Now we are working on Edu's vocals, and more news will come very soon!
