II: Decet Hostium update #002
11 years ago
General
I know that my page has been all Sketches and Demos lately, but take it from me, stuff is getting finished track by track.
Alas, time is not entirely on my side: my tenancy with this student accommodation ends in early August (and with my course finished, there's no chance for renewal) so I've also been on the lookout for a place to live. Don't worry, I've been sorting it out fine. But as a heads-up, if I disappear and/or updates become very sparse for any amount of time, it'll be because I'll be in the process of moving very soon (probably back to my parents for a short spell, then to wherever I end up living - it'll be in my local area anyway).
But onto II: Decet Hosium. Like I said, things have been finished. For the last few weeks, I've been focusing on writing and recording vocals (even if the backing track hasn't been recorded, singing over Sketches isn't a problem for me) while I still have access to recording equipment. Thankfully, I've only got a couple vocal tracks to do, since the album will have its fair share of instrumentals.
I suppose I can give out the tentative tracklist to the album while I'm here (finished tracks in bold, written (but not recorded) tracks in italics):
01. /run INTROD~1.BAT
02. Overture for the Upgraded (instrumental)
03. Pareidolia
04. To Arms, Brothers; We Are At War! (pt I: Fate Denied)
05. To Arms, Brothers; We Are At War! (pt. II: The Rebellion)
06. Cure?
07. Man Becoming Cold (The Surrender) (instrumental)
08. Frozen, Unconscious... Immortal
09. Rogue Terminal
10. Machine Becoming Warm (The Uprising) (instrumental)
11. VICHAMA The Destroyer (Collateral Damage)
12. Release Candidate (instrumental)
13. The Ghost Inside
I haven't put track times because it's not mixed together, but I'm currently looking at a total time of 62 minutes.
I'm still hoping for a AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2014 release, but given my near-future circumstances, SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2014 may be more likely. Believe me, I want this to be finished. I've always wanted to finish an album and now that I am able to truly make the music I wanted Not a Number to be, this is truly my chance.
