ProTools Interruptus

Well, at least I managed to get one new track out before my ProTools rig bit the dust!

Currently waiting on a new PC before recommencing mixing. My poor Dell was suffering from some Thermal Meltdown issues or some such.

Meantime, at least it's sunny - I can go cycling.

Kenny Cole

I wanted to introduce the work of artist Kenny Cole. Kenny is a talented, prolific artist based in Maine, US. One of his pieces, painted on a piece of scrap wood, is used as the basis for the Hall Of Ghosts logo - shown at the top of this website.

His thought provoking work can be seen (and purchased) at http://www.kennycole.com/

We Are Finally Happy For Standing Still

Hall of Ghosts - We Are Finally Happy For Standing Still by hallofghosts


Mixing has begun. The first track I'm working on is a rocky pop song, "We Are Finally Happy For Standing Still". This was one of the first new songs written for Hall Of Ghosts. I'll post the track up here soon :

In a glass house
there is room to run out
there is space to believe

Early morning dust
to the daylight thrust
this is something I need

And now I'm ready
I think I'm ready

Sing out loud
it's getting simpler now
I disappear in a horseless town

How old are we?
inside a photograph
we live again where the pages part

And now I'm ready
I think I'm ready

We are finally happy for standing still
I can feel myself loving you
we are finally living 
for going nowhere
and this is us I'm talking about

On the far frontier
where the message is clear
we'll hibernate 'til the summer breaks

Give me endless air
hold me into the chair
I'm given all unto gravity

And now I'm ready
I think I'm ready

We are finally happy for standing still
I can feel myself loving you
we are finally living
for going nowhere
and this is us I'm talking about

I was lonely out on the rail
slowly coming undone
but you helped me change
yeah, you changed me
