Great progress on "Car Crash Flashback" & Joy Division Covers News

I made excellent progress in recording the new track "Car Crash Flashback" yesterday with the bulk of the music now recorded. Once again I am really pleased with this track and it sounds excellent alongside the 3 other tracks I have recorded for the album so far (A Face I Knew, The Glimmer Man" & Stranger In The Room).

Instrument wise on this one I have used the following:

Roland Juno-D synth
NI Pro53 Synth
Superwave Pro Synth
Novation Bass Station
Roland CR78 Drum Machine
Rob Papen Blue Synth
Rob Papen Predator Synth
& A few Other Synths

As the album is very much inspired by the album "metamatic" by John Foxx I came up with the working title of "Systematic" which I do like, so for now, that is going to be the "working title" of the project. Below is the art work for the front cover (Again this might change)



My 2 Joy Division covers continue to get brilliant positive comments and a few weeks back I sent a message to Peter Hook (Member of Joy Division/New Order) about placing the cover versions on to my myspace page. Last night I got a message back from he stating it's fine by him, which is great, but even better is that he has asked me for a copy of my cover versions which is fantastic. Whether he just collects cover versions of the songs or he has heard them and likes them I don't know. Let's hope he likes them, if he does what is interesting is he now does a lot of DJ'ing so who knows these cover versions may well reacher a wider audience ...... I can but dream!
