New songs are taking colors and shapes. Three weeks have gone in very intensive song writing atmosphere. And lots of work are ahead still.

About the writing... When we find a great idea for a song, we agreed to spend days on arranging it and still, we don't  find the correct form. So the songs live on until we are completely satisfied with them. We are not yet there. It is very challenging, but also very liberating to imagine as if the band would be around. You don't need to do any compromises and the whole musical world is open. You are like exploring what is there.

In general, I(Juha) do very much of the base of the song. Then we sit down and talk together with Epi about the song arrangements and drum patterns. The song can turn totally new on this stage.
Last time, I wrote and recorded the almost whole package at once. This time, we do first demos of the songs and then record all its glory again. One of the reasons ie., is that there is so wide range of guitar sounds and we want to choose the most appropriate on that particular purpose. Hopefully we will succeed.

Here's a small snippet of the songs in the making( shooted with my better camera this time ;) ...). We thought maybe this is too much music for listening at this point. But on the other hand songs may change so radically still, so what the heck. And you should bear in mind that these are recorded in the camera's microphone(and demos...)... We are very excited about the new music and we have found a good writing mood. More to come!

First of all, we are sorry of the image quality. The camera was about to fall apart, which we discovered only afterwards. So these clips are definitely the best of what we could save. Right at the beginning of this year I went through wrist surgery, so I couldn't make music at full condition. So we are really not dead. Recently, the album has already begun to take shape better.

I found in some old photo. It brought a lot of memories, and also what kind of choices we make in our lives. The options, whether good or bad, they’ll change our course at all times. One wrong choice and you will find someone else living in a life that is not yours. Does it cover you or do you want to look for the bus back to the life you live to the fullest?  We have the time to enjoy what we intended. We face many people in our lives, but who really stays in your mind and why we do not all behave as we behave towards ourselves?  Mind can only hold a very limited amount of information at any given time, and I am aware of most of it, but still information continually will flood over me. These are just thoughts which mill around as album is building up. However on this day there's someone in the world thinking of you. So put big smile on your face, good music and new updates are coming!
