No news is good news. Well, sometimes that's true. Just looking forward to moving and finishing up the album. Thanks for being understanding and I hope the wait is worth it.

I appreciate all the feeback on my new tracks for the album. Makes me feel like I am going in the right direction. There will be more to come in the next few weeks so stay tuned.

Listen to the tracks and let me know what you think.

The big elephant has fallen off my chest. I now have four songs recorded and I am looking forward to finishing the rest of the album. The first day is always the hardest and it actually wasn't too bad at all. I am looking forward to the shows coming up we have, then taken a little bit of a break and then start to write the electric part of the album. I am still kicking around song titles and the album title. My friend Brandy is doing some artwork for the album and some of her artwork should be on the site shortly. The sample songs are in the music link on my site. Check em out and let me know what you think.

The first recording session is in the books and so far so good. I had a blast in the studio with my producer Gabe and we did two songs in under 3 hours. The process was a breeze and I highly recommend Gabe for any recording that you need done with affordable rates. I already have a copy of the two songs, there not mixed yet, but we are right on schedule with have clips of the songs on the website on Monday. I go in tomorrow to lay down two more songs and then it's back to the drawing board for the other four or five. I think the album is gonna have 10 songs on it. The last song is a cover and it's gonna be a surprize if I can pull it off. The song is gonna be live and it will have vocals on it provided by Mario. I'll have another update tomorrow after the session tomorrow.

The wait is almost over. I start recording this Saturday. All these ideas are flowing and I am looking forward to putting them down on tape. I am doing some touch up recording on my computer right now and I am trying to hash out some final details but I am thinking about just going in with the skeleton of the songs and see where the vibe of the studio takes me. I have the session already paid for, so that takes the pressure of getting it done quickly out of the picture. I will have samples on the site by Monday for sure. If you want to hang out during the recording session, please email me or sign the guestbook/mailing list and say you want to and leave me an email address where I can get a hold of you.

The first recording dates are coming up and I have already gotten some requests from some of you guys to join me in the studio. That means a lot and I will let you know where and what time as the dates get closer. Make sure you send me an email or let me know via the guestbook. The first session will be nothing but acoustic guitars, the second session in the end of May should be drums. That might get pushed back because how busy our schedule has been. I'll keep you posted on that.

I am in the process of finishing up some ideas for my album. I start recording the acoustic part of the album May 15th and 16th. Shoot me an email if you want to stop by and check out the studio and recording process. I like some of the ideas I have for the album and I am looking forward to getting my Vetta II amp tomorrow. I know a ton of creative ideas are gonna start flowing once I get my hands on that bad boy.

wrote a couple new riffs that might make the album. Looking forward to Vegas trip to pick up my new amp and to also write some more music, Vegas tends to bring out some ideas in me. Keep checking back for more updates and I promise some audio clips soon.

Started writing a little more today but nothing concrete, just some ideas on tape. I think I am gonna get into the studio and cut one of my acoustic songs so RJ can put it on the site. As I think more about this album, all sorts of ideas are popping into my head. I originally decided to record an all instrumental album but I am having second thoughts. I might sing one song and I might record one song with Audioboxx. Maybe those songs will be hidden tracks or something like that. Who knows, only time will tell.

I met with an engineer(Gabe) yesterday concerning the pre production of my album. I am very excited to report that the meeting was a sucess. I will have a lot more news in the next couple of days(weeks maybe). I don't want to let the cat out of the bag with the plans I have but I will working on a couple things at once that I think a lot of you guys will dig. i can assure you this, the recordings that I heard from this studio were very well done and I have a lot of confidence in Gabe and the studio. Hopefully I can get some stuff on the site soon. Speaking of the site, RJ is working is butt off and I just bought a domain name so we should start seeing some major traffic in the next couple of weeks. The new website is www.estang74.com   It's not up just yet, but hopefully in the next couple of days.
