Welcome to the studio
log!
(the old homepage can
still be found here)
Here you will find all
the latest news on the recording of Illusion of ClarityÕs 3rd demo.
ThatÕs right! The wait
is over! The band has finally decided to start recording again.
We will start off by
recording the drums in our rehearsal room/studio.
The guitar and bass will
be recorded in different locations around central Stockholm, as will the
vocals.
When the recording is done
this log page will be replaced by a brand new official Illusion of Clarity home
page!
So stay tuned for more
updates, pictures, sound clips and movies!

GREAT NEWS!!
See this movie to find
out whatÕs happening
in the Illusion Camp!
07-05-06:
Christian is working on
some additional guitars while Anders has just started recording
his parts. Everything is
going good, but somewhat slow, due to a lot of work on his day job.
Sadly we have to report
that singer Patrik seem to have got one of those dreadful springtime colds.
While waiting for it to
leave his system he is working on fine-tuning the vocal arrangements
in terms of lyrics,
harmonies and timing.

Thank you so much for
the big interest shown in the guestbook!!
Sadly we have to report
that thereÕs been some trouble in the
Illusion-camp lately:
Anders new computer didnÕt work properly for quite a whileÉ
Then the Magic Boxes mentioned in the 07-02-03-update below
didnÕt work until
Anders and Christian
spent another couple of days on them.
Patrik has been ill as
well, so the energy level has been quite lowÉ
Now, however, everything
is working and the recording of
guitars will begin
seriously this weekend!
Some pics of the guys
working on the boxes will be up as soon
as Henrik puts them up!

Today I (Patrik) and

We found that no additional
recording was needed.
We also found that the
drums sound awesome! We will edit them as soon as possible.
New short movie also in
the editing room!

DAY 4 – 07-01-28:
We (hopefully) finished
recording the drums!! On Tuesday Henrik and Patrik are going to check
the material to see if
thereÕs a need for any additional drumming.
The drum sound is
without a doubt the best Illusion has ever had!
With the right mixing
itÕs gonna be KILLER!!

occurred but after
solving them we were finally under way! The recording started at about 19.00.

A bit of soundcheck and

before starting the
recording tomorrowÉ
