In the past few months I've been listening to many records from the late 60's to the very early 80's and I was struck – once more - by how much they could accomplish with so little and primitive gear at their disposal. I therefore felt the urge to record something using simple sounds and simple effects, mostly emulations of what was available then. Also, in the late 60's multitrack recording was limited to four (and later eight) tracks. I chose to impose on myself the same limit, so every piece on this album was recorded using a maximum of eight tracks (mostly four, though), as opposed to the twenty or thirty I normally use.
This is certainly not the first time I go back to early recording methods and atmospheres, as it always has a sort of purifying effect on me and it's fun. Lack of limitations is rarely as much fun...
Working on this album made me feel well, I hope it'll have the same effect on you when you listen to it
