As is often the case with new projects, things got off to a fairly leisurely start. Drums, keyboards, home-made pedals, computers slowly emerged from the pile of cases in the amp room as the band made ready to give us a tour of the four songs they're going to be working with us on.

After hearing these, and then discussing a whole bunch of references and influences to draw upon, we went back to work on the first song - A+B Chemistry.
Work-shopping can be a wildly different process depending on the band. It can be everything from writing a completely fresh idea with an artist to looping a virtually finished song until that chorus fill is absolutely spot-on.

After about an hour or so of this, we set to work with Dickie, laying down the drum takes.
Here's what happened next...
