First Sinch Tattoo Confirmed In The Wild

Twitter user @pgmonday recently posted this photo of his new tattoo:

Seven Lyrics Tattoo

Fresh ink! It’s a quote from one of my favorite @sinch songs – “Seven”

As far as I can remember (which may not be that far) this is the first Sinch-inspired tattoo we’ve seen. We certainly can’t recommend you get Sinch-related tattoos but if there are any other ones out there feel free to let us know.

Drum Tracking Now Quasi-Complete

You knew it wouldn’t be that easy.

So, the plan is to record 15 songs. We’ve finished recording drums for 13 of them. The last two need a bit more “finishing up” than we thought, so we decided to move on to recording bass. In the meantime, we’ll work on the unrecorded songs on our own time instead of trying to figure things out in the studio. There’s plenty of work to do with the 13 song we have, so things will keep moving forward. Unfortunately for the studio journal that means we can’t quite call the drums completed yet.

If you’ve been watching the live stream, we commend you on your patience and willingness to endure less than stellar audio and video quality. We’re working on a new streaming method that should improve things a bit. During the last drum session I thought I had it set up right, but I heard from a bunch of people after the fact that it wasn’t working. Apologies for the non-functioning stream that night. The good news is that we just uploaded a full take of one of the songs we recorded last week. It was “filmed” with a better-than-webcam-quality camera so you can actually see (and hear) what’s going on.

Awesome – reminds me of the good old days of VHS, West Coast Video, and Laserdisc players.

“Subdivisions” – works by Artist Ross Racine


(A selection from Subdivisions by Ross Racine via Swiss Miss)

New York artist Ross Racine creates aerial views of fictional suburbs, examining the relation between design and actual lived experience. No photographs or scanned images are used in the pieces above. Each was drawn freehand directly on the computer and then printed on an inkjet printer.

On a somewhat related note: if you haven’t downloaded it already, our latest release, “Subdivisions” is available in the Sinch store for only $4.99!
