Check me.Īlexei: The Machine Shop was the for sure the most Wily Wonka studio we've seen, and Machine (real name Gene but NEVER CALL HIM GENE) is worlds above us. I associate this album with staying on Times Square in one of the world's worst hotels (we bloody loved it though), travelling through the Lincoln tunnel every day to go to work, and recording with the best gear. Funnily enough though, for all the production, it was the song Salt, Pepa and Spinderella - made mostly using my Casio SA-21 and a clean guitar - that gained most hype. Machine, the producer, would shout down the mic to ramp us up, or sing down the mic while dancing to just get us to play with more intensity. It was a strange experience, to this day the most produced and the most produced-sounding recording process we've had. ![]() We had a fair amount to choose from some songs we had been playing for years. Junior: This album was like our greatest hits pre-being signed. ![]() Like three children, in awe of the big city ducks out of water, but ecstatic to be there. He'd have Lex and I facing each other whilst doing vocals and would run around us, riling us, getting us to scream bloody murder at each other. The album is like 100mph, which was pure Us Live at that time and was delicately captured by Machine, who was the most fun. Kelly: This is our Birmingham album, recorded in Hoboken, NJ whilst sleeping three in a bed in a budget NY hotel.
