Circuline’s Debut Album release date has been set for December! This past weekend was spent with Andrew Colyer re-recording the rest of the keyboard tracks for “Geode” and mix prepping at Inner Nova Records on Saturday, September 28th. On Sunday, mixing began with the legendary engineer Julie Last over at Coldbrook Productions in Woodstock, New York. We’re very grateful to be working with Julie – she spent ten years at the Record Plant in New York City, and ten years in Los Angeles at major label studios. Her credits include YES, John Lennon, Brian Eno, Joni Mitchell, Aerosmith, Talking Heads, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Peter Frampton, etc. We started with the drum tracks, then imported some of the keyboard and guitar tracks. There is a lot more to be done, but we’re making great progress!
