| Thanks Andy. Most of my music lends itself to imagery, I'm pushing that a lot with the next full album. I'm trying to get as close to a movie like experience as I can get with a CD. |

To me the biggest difference is in the way that drums are tracked. The older minimalist techniques really bring out the character of the kit and leave more space in the mix.
That's what I really d ... |
