Lost and found

Second day here at Fireplace studio, 11th floor at 127, 25th west,Chelsea,Manhattan.

the day began with a weird email: hey it's jimena (our landlord here in East Village), this Greg guy called me saying he got Gabri's wallet."

Greg is in Brooklyn, we're in Chelsea close to the Empire State Building. In the pic, we show you the path we guess Gabri's wallet did to get to Greg's. Save a little prayer for him (Gabri, Greg's fine).

Three days in New York, wonder what could happen in one month...

Anyway, Renzo worked hard today, and you can see his plagues in that other pic, this is what happens when your producer is an american and your drummer is an italian. Cultures clash. And it's not over yet for today. Keep you posted on hand's health tomorrow. By the way, the drums are very groovy until now, we like that.

We met a guy here, helps Caleb in producing, who do some Hip Hop/ Tip Tap, here's the link

Fresh.

Keep in touch,

Late Guest at the Empire City

So here we are, at the 11th floor in a Chelsea building in undergoing renovation. It seems like the only thing still working here is our lovely Fireplace Studios, that's where we are at the moment.

First impact: workmen brought us up here with a freight, after we casually met our producer, Caleb, in the street holding those classic boiling coffee cup.

Two drums pattern already done, 4 super salad bowls, no beers yet (there's a whole fridge to fill up by the way, so that next posts will be more interesting maybe).

Jetlag killed our videomaker MotionPiadina, he's not in motion so much lately, so for today here you can get the only rare footage of our first day in studio.

Gabri is sick and the only words he said is "cough cough". Renzo, aka "Rensou", is silent and focused on milking the groove from a freaking 80's Yamaha drum set we chose, you'll see it's awesome. Davide found skelter on his Iphone playing lame games cause he discovered he suffers from vertigos.

Alex is in L.A., enjoying warmer temperatures and palms and his flip flops, fucker.

See ya tomorrow.

NEW YORK

right now we're in New York in our apartment in east village

we landed yesterday and tomorrow is the first day of recording!

some news and videos soon!

Comunicato ufficiale (che fa molto serio)

Ciao,

è un po’ che non ci facciamo vivi e l’EP digitale in uscita in questi giorni forse vi coglie un pò di sorpresa…Ma si sa, noi siamo fatti così.
L’EP, in streaming in esclusiva su Rockit la scorsa settimana, contiene un po’ del nostro passato, del nostro presente e del nostro futuro. Ogni canzone rappresenta un passaggio e ci è sembrato bello raccontarvi così la nostra storia fino ad ora.
In realtà abbiamo tante novità per il 2011, non sia mai che l'anno dopo finisca davvero il mondo.

Prima, e triste: Padre Ivano Tonelli, pericoloso intellettuale, ha deciso di lasciare la band….nessuno scazzo, solo scelte prese e strade che si dividono.
Seconda: A Gennaio andiamo a New York a registrare il nostro secondo album. Il produttore sarà Chuck Brody (Ra Ra Riot, Sean Bones, Shy Child e tanti altri tra cui Yoko Ono e Jennifer Lopez…si proprio lei). Nessuna pretesa di fare i fighi (anche perché i nostri fisici non ce lo permettono), ma solo la decisione onesta e sincera di rinnovarci dopo "Come Back Bobby Perù" e di vivere un esperienza che sogniamo da quando ci son spuntati i brufoli.
Un assaggio lo trovate in anteprima nell'EP, si chiama “Pills” ed i Not an Exit ci hanno già fatto un bel remix bomba, a cui vanno i primi ringraziamenti: Luca e Alex ci fanno ballare, ci registrano i demo, ci fanno le grafiche ( nono.grafica@gmail.com ), ci accompagnano i figli a scuola quando la mattina siamo ancora strafatti.

Terza: Abbiamo il videoclip di "Revolution in her closet" pronto per uscire dalle nostre casine ed entrare nei vostri salottini, computerini, telefonini.

p.s. scaricate il nostro ep ed il nostro disco qui http://lgatp.bandcamp.com/

Insomma,

Ci si vede al prossimo party,

LG(ATP).

a new EP is coming

This will come out in digital download on wed the 22 of september.
Thanks Luca for the amazing work .... nono.grafica@gmail.com
