Every now and again you get your ducks in order and you have a profoundly good day. I reckon that ought to be celebrated.

For those of you who aren't me (turns out that's quite a few), here's some of my good day.

We're in a purple patch of songwriting. Our preproduction process is highly effective. Communication is excellent. Willingness to accept criticism and to modify parts and ideas is trending up.

The sports psychology term for this is 'in the zone', or in the vernacular, 'f--k yeah'.

Jo joined us in the studio as we recorded 'The flood' but that's only a Mid Level Score.

Bonus points came for Cello inclusion, courtesy of the out-freaking-standingly tonal Geoff Gartner. Mr Wizard just shook his head and said 'man, listen to that intonation'.

PLUS double bass courtesy of BillWill, bowing, harmonies, bongos. Better yet, I get to listen to the guide track. Soz guys you know the rules, they wont let me share until mastering...

But I got some footage of our String Section in action.

How good is this eh? Geoff is one serious Jedi Level cat. 

Out fricking standing.

Mixing and fixing underway. More songs to record.

A good day.

Cheers Ben. Thanks Geoff.
