I suddenly remembered this record again a few days ago and it's the best thing ever I think.

Well then, I'll have to start thinking about how I would go about that writing a thing about how I record, should be fun, of course if anyone has any specific questions feel free to ask away.

Subway: Yes, it was very much on purpose; I've fallen deeply in love with Brazilian music over the past 1.5 years or so, Caetano Veloso, Gal Costa, Novos Baianos, Joao Gilberto, Jorge Ben, Os Mutantes, Nara Leao, Jobim (of course), Tom Ze, etc...I'm also fairly into '90s indie/alt rock/whatever stuff, so that makes sense.  And that's okay, I've started to like Computer Savvy myself, though I wasn't too fond of it at the time of it's release.

10k: There's nothing I want more in this world than to live with you on the sunny shores of Australia in marital bliss.

Hmm, I'm undecided on whether or not I like it, but the lyrics are top notch and the overall feel is quite elegant. Very well done.

Wow. This is really good, excellent work, sir ! I'm still waiting for a J. arthur physical release though...

I'd definitely like to know more about your recording / mixing habits, even if 95% of the job is to know how to listen I guess.

Hey JAK, your songs reminds me a little of 90's indie stuff.

Monsters is clearly bossa nova, was that on purpouse?

And sorry to say that, but I still prefer Computer Savvy. tongue

Please do. I have so many questions.

+1. I love the way your recordings sound. I'd love to hear details, no matter how "amateurish" they may seem to you.

Your records sound good by pretty much all standards, I seriously keep wondering if Best Coast ripped your recording style off.

Okay, I'm kidding about that part, but my point is that it sounds great. smile

The answer is that the southern accent is really just the way that I myself talk, because if you go south far enough you end up right back where you started.  Case closed.

There was a question that arose that I'm not sure if it was answered.
We weren't sure what was meant by a southern accent

Since you are canadian it could be a southern canadian accent, but I held that since you are canadian, then everything is south of you, so a southern accent is just any accent other than your own.

Tell is what is the right answer Mr. Band


this is the best post and i am also curious
