As you could read in the "welcome" post, the original idea for this blog is to be a documentary about the making of our debut album. The reason we want to blog about the album is that we think it will keep us focused on the task at hand. Once we go public with the plan, we can't really go back. It puts a bit of pressure on and that's good. Just by typing these words I already feel extra motivated!
So how far are we right now? Basically, we have a title and about 50 half finished tracks.
The title : A good title is important, even if it's just a working title. You gotta give the little baby a name. No, we're not gonna tell you what the title is. Not yet, it's just a bit to soon for that! But it sure will draw attention.
The tracks : Ok, I didn't really count them and I'm sure we have more than 50. We spend a few days going through all the hard-drives and throwing away all the silly and "what were we thinking?"-ideas. Obviously we only want to present you the great stuff... Some ideas are almost finished, others are still in embryonic phase. The range of styles varies quite a bit. Everything from big room stompers to experimental electronica.
Finding the sound for a Filterheadz track is always a bit of an adventure. We have covered a lot of directions in the past : techno, house, progressive and everything in between. So far we have always combined elements from everywhere and sometimes we wonder if that was always such a good idea. Although those combinations gave us the classic Filterheadz sound, we feel that we have to push the boundaries this time. With this album we really want to take a leap forward sonically and go for a wilder and more cutting edge sound.
Curious? So are we. So join us on this journey and we'll discover it together...
I came to this site with the hope that you guys would be making a new album. It was great to find out that one is in the works. I LOVE "Blue Sky Happiness" and "Endless Summer"!!! Much love.
