Hit The Road Running was recorded in the summer of 2000 in Grand Bank, Newfoundland. It was recorded using a close to Antique 4-track recorder which broke on us twice during the entire 3 month session. Once while recording the drums and the tape would not eject, and the second time the rewind and fast forward buttons stopped working. Through all our problems and playing of shows though the CD was finished at a fairly high quality considering we did do it in a hurry, and in a basement and a garage. Drums were recorded in a garage using about 4 microphones to mike the drums and run them through a board into the 4-track. Thanks go out to Philip Piercey and his dad Jim for letting us use their drums and garage. The drum tracks were laid down by Ryan and Matthew. When Ryan played drums, Matthew played rhythm guitar, and vice versa. The rest of the lead guitar and bass was recorded in Ryan's basement while we were moving equipment in and out from playing shows around the area. A lot of the lead and bass was juggled around between Ryan and Matthew. Jeff was mostly unavailable other than at show time because of work, so we did most of his bass tracks. He did the first half of You Walked In, and Matthew fixed the ending so that Jeff could still stay on the CD in some form. The CDs were then mixed by Jeff and Matthew using Jeff's computer. And so the Wavelength legacy started....

Thanks for the listen and for the info.
Not bad dude I like it i just wish it was a little better recording just remeber vocals should be the loudest then everthing comes next. Even if you have a deep voice. Trust me me and my band have that trouble all the time I still love it though JOE
