Back in, oh 2000 or something...maybe 2001...before houses and kids became a part of many of our lives, Michael Peterson arranged a recording session for the, at that time, nascent band Tilda. Mike, Greg Brayford, Matthew Young and I converged upon a homestead out in the country, north of Toronto. We convinced Trevor Hughes to be our recordist and J and Lu to lend us their large shed in which to record. Over the course of the three days we were there we laid hundreds of tracks and yet...they were never properly mixed nor mastered nor released. Many years later, I have decided to go through the archives of those tracks, assemble them in their proper place and do my best to mix them because, hey, we worked hard and they should be heard!

It has been over a month since I posted the first of the 'lost' tracks from Tilda's original recording sessions. I've been working on additional songs but sporadically. 

Going through all these files and reassembling them is really cool. Wow, considering Greg and Matthew had never played the songs...well take a listen and you can see how well they understood what Mike and I were after.

Glee moment: First run through of Paralyzer, wherein I was found on the floor with a face splitting smile from all the rawk guitars screaming with pain and pleasure! What fun we used to have slaughtering our ears!
