I worked on this one during the quarantine period of 2020...I bought some recording stuff to fill the time, and so this is my first completely solo recording since I was in college.

I chose this song because it was a new exciting listen for me, and I didn't have to plan ahead what I wanted to record this time; I could just start straight away. Also I've played this tune in a marching band for years so it became a bit of a joke that it would always be played...

It's "Enola Gay" by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, a No.8 UK hit in 1980 for them. They used mostly transistor organs for the keyboard parts, so I tried to be authentic, but unlike them I used my ARP Odyssey for the synth lines, as it was a good opportunity.

The "real" drums are unfortunately programmed as I had no access to my drums, but everything else aside from the actual drum machine is played fully by hand. The chimes are a sample of me playing on one of my old recordings, as I didn't have them with me either...

Mastered by my friend Greg, of course ;)
