Gear – Chris and Anne

Wheatstone treble and baritone English concertinas played by Anne Gregson, recorded using a pair of Neumann KM184 microphones in X-Y stereo. Other instruments are all voices of a Yamaha P115 digital piano played by Anne.

Audio Interface – UA Apollo 8
Recording software – Apple Logic X
Plugins used – UA LA-2A and LA-3 compressors and 2C Breeze reverb.

This piece started with the guitar line which Seamus wrote and recorded and sent to Chris and Anne. Chris tweaked it slightly and then Anne wrote the accompanying music incorporating an additional idea from Seamus. Chris and Anne then recorded the new parts on concertina and digital piano, Chris mixed it and sent it back to Seamus. Seamus made a number of tweaks and picked an awful lot of lint out of the mix. These were all incorporated into the final mix, together with a few more bits of lint Anne and Chris managed to find. Seamus suggested the title and it seems to have stuck.

We're pleased with the way the collaboration turned out as we all feel that the piece turned out very differently as a result of working together.
