Are you guys going to do the mastering yourselves, or do you have a mastering engineer?

Jon Jenkins I apologize in advance for this lengthy and "blog-ish" two part post. If you are following me to track the progress of the new album, then you might want to skip these two.

If you have 15 minutes, here's something I've been contemplating from the "Music Is Art" file. Trey Gunn shared this amazing short film a few d...ays ago, and it made me think about how we experience different forms of art.

Music is a "time-based" art form. We experience it in real time, it starts and ends, it is constantly changing and developing as we listen, but when it's finished, it's gone - the experience is over.

What if we experienced a painting as a "time-based" art form, the same way we experience a piece music?

The film is 15 minutes long, split into two parts. Watch both parts for the full effect. Here is part 1...

Ryan Eric Childress Am curious to know from both (x-post to each artist), are there track titles yet? Album title? What inspires you to a particular title?

Hey Ryan - Checking in from the studio here. Like David said, the album has had a basic concept and title since the beginning. The track titles just seem to fall into place as the music develops and the details of the journey become clear. More to be revealed soon...

Thanks, Adrian! I'd heard about this a while ago, but hadn't seen the song list yet. Looking forward to that Radiohead track!

Jon Jenkins Had some big breakthroughs on the new record with David Helpling today. Settled on which tracks will make the final cut and a song order that is absolutely mind blowing!

To prove we're still at it, here's a new Moments in Exile video taken today during some percussion editing....

Absolutely! Do David and You carry digital recorders with you, so you can capture something that catches your ears? Either that, or you'd have to specifically go on a sample gathering field trip.
