Few more songs’ drums recorded
I slept like a baby last night. It’s so quiet here that it even feels scary at times. But it’s beautiful to work like this.
After Mike finished recording one song in the morning, we had some guests in the studio visiting us. Pete, our live sound engineer came to talk about next shows.
We are planning some crazy stuff for the next “world” tour. It’s just so fantastic to be able to decide myself the stage set up, the design of it and plan all the matters of the touring after all.
We need to start things already now, very early in advance, so that we are not running late when we need to hit the road with the new album.
Today was a magnificent day. Mike finished 3 songs and he is laying down damn good material.
“LL”, “DS” very heavy songs and “U” a beautiful ballad. You didn’t think I was giving you all the song names right away, did you? 
The atmosphere is calm and relaxed in the studio. I am not pushing Mike to his limits. At least I hope so 
I guess nobody likes to work like that anyway. Better your mood is, better you perform. That’s how it should be. And the question is, why try to make the impossible happen if the results sound already awesome? I don’t see any point in that. We have fun together, we do our best and that is what matters at the end of the day.
My friends from Same-Eyes Film Company are around too, shooting the whole production so that one day you’ll all see what we have been up to. Is nice to have things filmed so that we can remember everything afterwards.
Sometimes the time is running too fast and you don’t even realize what you are living through.
Today I even got to practise playing some piano parts that I am going to record in few days, so it was a very exciting day indeed.
We expect more visits for today. Let’s see…
And here some words from Mr Alex Scholpp:
hey everybody!
we are here in the snow and darkness, far away from civilisation- outside it´s cold and silent, not a sound. but things changed here since mr. mike terrana- well known as the “rythm beast”, blasts the roof of the studio with his furious power- power drumming and animal- like grunts and screams in between the takes!
we are finished with recording drums for four songs now and it´s great fun to jam and rock those songs together with mike.
right now we are figuring out the right grooves and parts for the songs, then record the drums and next week we start with bass and guitars.
the studio is very nice and we get taken care of really good. it´s a great vibe here i have to say.
so more from me later, good night!
cheers!
I’ll write more to you tomorrow.
With love, Tarja

Posted on: February 7, 2010 3:06 pmHello my Siren,
Great to read that the drum-recordings are really going well but personally with a drummer like Mike i wouldn’t think otherwise, he is one of the best drummers there is …:-)
By the way Tarja, i know that a glass of red wine can be very relaxing but have you ever tried a nice Dutch beer!!
I hope that the coming weeks all recording-sessions will work out as planned and that What Lies Benath will be fantastic, just have fun with the recordings and relax when ever you can (with a Dutch beer of course this time) because your band will do the rest, they are just like you: awesome!!! See you in the future …:-)

and for the very first time:
ALEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEXXX!!!!!
Thanks a lot for being so cute and keep us informed about the process of the recording sessions. Today a friend of mine sent me a link to the Same-Eye web page, and when I read that they’ll record some of your concerts I was like
. I’m hoping that Universal finally decides to release a DVD with your music and videos. If they’re not interested, Marcelo should try to get the copyright to release it himself with Nems. I know that Nems is a small label, and it’ll take enormous efforts to release one of your DVDs worldwide, but I think Marcelo will make a far better work than Universal, and I’m quite tired as a fan to be waiting for them to make things right. HaHaHa!! sorry for the negative post, but I had to say it, I want to watch one of your concerts on my tv!!

And you’re such a wicked girl!! HAHAHAHA, you’re not going to tell us the names of the mysteryous songs, right? anyway, that’s cool, suprises are lovely
Thanks again Tarja and Alex for the nice post and the hard work, keep being cute, and take care
