I think, it's just, you know, we've recorded, you know, the better half of the last three records
And so, it's, you know, it's a great studio for one
The room that we're in right now
Is actually the room where we recorded most of the material of the last three records
When we've been at Electric Lady, the staff is awesome
They've always had great engineers, the managers are like a friend of ours
And always tries to get us in here and makes things easy for us
And so, I feel like New York City is very easy to wanna go work, to go in the studio
But then there can always be so, you know, so many distractions about you
It's, it's truly a treasure
We can go to a place and leave the city at the door and just get down to it
And have the comfort just to acclimate very quickly and fall into the music
And this room in particular is a great sounding room
And I, you know, I feel like at the four-frag when we came here
To record that, we were talking about having a really nice, sizable room for drum purposes
Then also, we had eight different amps that we had just sectioned off
So we'd kind of bleed each, all those amps together or blend, I should say, all those amps together
To kind of make a unique sound for each song, whatever was needed per song
On this record, we actually only really recorded all of the drums
And I think like 95% of the bass, right, Paul? Pretty much all the bass
Everything else was recorded at Novor Studio in Red Hope Brooklyn, but
(Atomic sound studios)
Sammy, you really enjoyed obviously laying it down here
Oh, yeah
Well, when we were doing Our Love to Admire, we started at another spot in Soho
And then I got a phone call from Rich Coste, who co-produced the record and said
Do you want to come and retract some of the drums at Electric Lady?
And I was like, why would I want to do that?
And so I got to come in and kind of overdub these drum parts
Over guitar parts that were already tracked, you know, for posterity
And from that point on, it was just, you know, I fell in love with it
And just, you know, things that were done in this room over the year
That black piano that black piano that black grand piano used to be a white grand piano
Where Topperhead and wrote Rock the Casbah
And tracked it and played bass
(And I think it was Hendrix's piano if I remember correctly too)
I believe so, yeah and just like little things like that, that really
You know, do mean something you feel like a kid like it, it's better than it's like adult Disney
There's also like a little am I wrong, they're not like a little stream?
Like literally right here and they can lift it up like one of the wood panels
And you can kind of see it
I'm pretty sure there is, I don't know if anyone
Yep you see that we got the thumbs up confirmation
I feel like I've seen it was it would have been like on our left admirers
So like that's like 20 years ago for me
But like I felt like that was like I heard the tale and I feel like they showed it to me
