I spent the day mastering Superheroes of the Sea yesterday - and what a joy it was! Once again - every single track is amazing in its own right - and super-powerful in Rob's skillful and textural track order. I'm constantly impressed by the lengths you lot go to, to make this project something special. There's some beautiful and intense and hilarious lyrics/prose on the album, exceptional vocals, along with some incredible twang-action and, for the first time, saxophones! As mastering engineer, not a single element that you wrote was lost on me - I heard everything, and I liked what I heard a lot. Keep up the good work IML!

Christmas



Arrrrrr!!!!! Well done me hearties! You've done it. Album 2 is in the net, has been clubbed to death, descaled and is being flash-frozen for rapid transport to your Christmas inboxes. Oh boy! Its a mixed bag this time around, and the quality is even higher than the first album! Congratulations to all IML members - you've done it again. I'm very excited to hear it all back to back once Captain Fish has done his thing as IML selecta. Extra kudos to anyone who contributed to the Shanty - its a marvellous thing! Happy Holidays music machines.

DEADLINE SCHMEDLINE!

Brave Argonauts!

The time has come to get things buttoned-up ship-shape and Bristol-fashion. As Superheroes of the Sea masterer I must confess that I'm the tear-arse last-minute contributor this time around. The holiday season has proved the busiest season of the year for yours truly. NEVERTHELESS - you SHALL have your IML album for Christmas. So long as you've all been good girls and boys...

Good luck with final mixing etc. Don't panic if you miss the deadline! Rob has left plenty of wiggle room to get Album 2 in by Christmas. However - at this stage, we may not be eligible for a Christmas number 1.

Tim Donderevo!
