Elissa revealed to me what she and the musicians, Daniel and Elliott, have been recording and mixing.
It's pretty exciting!
One track is like an explosion of sound that makes it hard to sit still. One track is like walking along the beach. One track is like a quiet little dance. One track is like standing under a night sky of shooting stars. One track is like tumbling around inside a climbing frame and the other track is like floating away into deep, dark space.
The next step is to continue to mix the music - that's like putting all the best recorded bits together in the order that we want so that it creates one beautiful track. Then Elissa will master the tracks. That's like cleaning up all the different layers of sound to make sure all the audio is high quality and the track is in a format that can be played on anyone's machine. Then the tracks will be ready to be uploaded to the website for you to listen to and download from January 12th.
We're looking forward to hearing about what you can hear in the tracks.
