Charlotte thought we'd been burgled, but it was just me having messy studio fun writing and recording music for the new Knomad Spock record and giving our new Nordic Audio Labs NU100K and NU880K mics a working over. I've never gone from an idea to a finished recording so fast and with so few tears and tantrums: everything I plucked, honked, scraped, bashed, shouted, bowed or oscillated sounds fantastic and, more impressively, the mics somehow captured the feeling of playing it all. Astonishing. It was also the first recording to feature a new instrument I built with Molly out of our old post box, a drawer and a hand drill. We party hard at St. Mary's.
