Miscreants, Chasm City, and Dreams are nearing completion. Only vocals left to do. That leaves Shards in the Sand, and Anti-Gravity(formerly Shaman) for major overdubs and vocals. There will also be remixes of our two releases from last year Damage Done and She Moved Me.


There have been rumors alluding to a major announcement from the band circulating . . . the rumors will be laid to rest in mid-June.


We can also be found on Reverbnation now. One can buy the releases from last year at that site.


More news to come shortly.

The new Gretsch drumkit sounds positively epic! Tru and Alex did a fantastic job laying down the basics. Each tune has a nice live vibe and feel to them. As always New Sun shoots for a very organic feel. Something sadly missing from most of today's popular music. Over edited, autotuned and squashed to death seems to be the norm.


As usual New Sun sands against the grain.


Now it's CSC's turn to hunker down and layer his guitars, keys and vocals over everything. Things are hoppin  at Blue Seven Audio. The place is a tangle of cables, cabinets and guitars. Enter at your own risk. (Pix on the Gallery page)


 


Recent interview with Geddy and Alex of RUSH was an affirmation of New Sun's own beliefs and attitudes toward composition, writing and music in general.


There will be some short rehearsal recording samples up here and on our Facebook page over the next week.


There's rumor of a major announcement concerning the band coming in April - for the moment "no comment" is all that has been heard. Stay tuned and in good intonation.

Been a wee bit busy getting ready for recording. New Sun heads into the studio March 12th to start recording 4 songs for the forthcoming CD. Been a year of prep and other happenings, but we are finally here. On the slate for tracking are "Shards in the Sand", "Chasm City", "Dreams (working title)", and "Miscreants (working title)".


The latter has been on our playlist for almost 8 years, waiting patiently to be brought forth into the world. There will be short samples of some rehearsals recorded up here at the site briefly over the course of this week and next, so watch for them, as they will come and go like a proverbial dog in heat.


Check out our facebook page for other samples and to touch base with us on a more regular basis

I had mentioned a surprise some weeks back, but you'll have to wait some more to hear about it.Ch ch changes.



Watch for short samples of recent rehearsals (the new material) to mysteriously appear here or at new-sun.com in the next day or two, then go away just as mysteriously.


Yes, we are on Facebook now

But things are looking bright at Blue Seven Audio (CSC's workspace) as New Sun looks to record two songs this month. "Shards in the Sand" looks at the building and crumbling cycles of human societies. "Chasm City" (based loosely upon the book by Alastair Reynolds) looks at the confusion of an assassin on another world, who's not too sure of his prey or himself. Work upon "Mistakes"(working title) and "Dreams" (working title) continues this month as well. Stay tuned for an announcement. Happy 2010!

We're recording Chasm City and Shards in the Sand in prep for mixing in January. The hope is to have an EP in early 2010 and full CD Summer 2010.

We've been spending a lot of time on the song "Shaman". Nothing like a little 5/4 meter to keep it interesting.

Feeling good about the song "Chasm City". One of the more complex and odd songs we've ever done.

It will be September before any further recording occurs as we've all had a busy August.

New Sun is now available on iTunes -Japan.]]> http://new-sun.com/news.html#19 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0700 new-sun.com - New Sun - News Summer 2009 http://new-sun.com/news.html#18 Damage Done was written for those who come home with no physical wounds, but wounded nontheless.

Damage Done and She Moved Me will be available for purchase via iTunes and this site July 2009.

Progress on the new CD is happening, but often slowed by the events of living life.
We're currently working on tracking the following songs:
Chasm City
Shaman
Dreams
Mistakes
Shards in the Sand

Our CD catalog is now fully available on iTunes-Japan]]> http://new-sun.com/news.html#18 Sat, 06 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700 new-sun.com - New Sun - News
