Blog: Guitar recordings finished! (17.02.2010)
Some of you were wondering that 17 songs is quite much for an album. Not all the songs are going to end up on the actual album.
We need bonus tracks and b-sides for different territories and singles. In the worldwide release, there are always countries asking for bonuses. On my album you can expect to have around 11-12 songs. I am lucky though to have more than enough material.
Last night Alex finished his guitar parts and today he returned back to Germany in the morning.


The band recordings are pretty much done now. We still need the keyboards and cello parts. These two instruments are not going to be recorded here at Petrax, but both Christian and Max are recording in their home studios.
We had some guests in Hollola today. Max helped us to contact musicians from Lahti symphony orchestra to record a string quartet. Max played himself the cello parts and did the arrangement for the quartet. The recordings went really well and the sound I was seeking for, was accomplished.

Thanks to Jyrki, Pauline and Rémi.
It was really great to have all my “band mates” here with me. We had a good time together in these sessions and the results are speaking. The songs are really getting tight, even though they are still missing quite few elements.
I read in the blog that many were surprised to see how fast the recordings are progressing. Have in mind that we have been working, discussing and living with these songs for nearly 2 years in some cases. So at the moment of the actual recording, everything is very clear already.
Tomorrow the vocal session will begin, so wish me good luck
With love, Tarja

Wow asta e o veste chiar foarte buna! chiar merg repede inregistrarile, iar Tarja e as drafuta ca ne scrie mereu
e fain sa vezi cum albumul prinde forma sub ochii tai.

Asta-i partea cea mai interesanta (ce mi-ar placea sa vad imagini din timpul inregistrarilor)!...Tarja wrote:Tomorrow the vocal session will begin, so wish me good luck![]()
