CAMERA OBSCURA: The First Music Sessions

September 22nd, 2009 | By NiNi

THE FIRST SESSIONS…

The scoring process for Drew Daywalt’s webseries CAMERA OBSCURA has begun! It’s been an exhausting but satisfying first week, and the music for episodes 1 through 3 is now complete. We can’t reveal many details about what’s happening onscreen during these opening chapters, but we can say that you’ll get to hear a new CORVO track titled “Where” [written and sung by NiNi] in Episode 1, as well as some creepy dark ambient compositions by G9 and a surprise performance that reveals NiNi’s inner Beelzebub.

Studio photos will probably be posted within the next week, including the recording of “Where,” G9 surrounded by his weapons of weirdness in the newly revamped Crow’s Nest, and some other odds and ends. Video footage from the studio may also be popping up in a future update, beginning with some revealing footage of “studio kittehs” Batty and Wylee practicing their own variety of forced shiatsu.

Inspirational visuals have been playing round the clock during this weekend’s recording sessions, including EVIL DEAD II, DEADTIME STORIES and the first season of THE ADDAMS FAMILY.

The series will be launching very soon (in plenty of time for Halloween), and we can’t wait to see the finished product!

The Crow’s Nest: Meet Sherman Monster

October 8th, 2008 | By NiNi

G9’s prized Sherman says “raaaawr!” The Sherman [Filterbank] has been referred to by music gearheads as “Lucifer in a Box.” We really can’t say enough great things about this beast. The weird noises throughout most of the song MOONLIGHT and in the end credits of the FANTOMATIQUE video came from Sherman, with yours truly working the knobs. If you think my working Sherman’s knobs sounds vulgar, it’s true, they are the epitome of electronic music naughty bits. xxx, NiNi
