Race against time

Final touch on the final mix

by Marcus Rejnevik

After a clarifying note on the fade-out of the song we’ve now completed the production and mixing phase of this first official tune that have reached beyond the demo stage.
Many thanks to our patient and creative producer/mixer; Peter Åhrberg. In a few days the mastering will be carried out and then we’re finally done!

First song to get professional mixing & production – by up-and-coming producer Peter Åhrberg

by Marcus Rejnevik

A few weeks ago we decided to get some professional help. We’ve been mixing and producing ourselves but had come to a dead end. We needed an external view on our work. And naturally someone who’s a real pro and an expert on what he’s doing. After a tip and a promising phone conversation we choose to collaborate with up-and-coming producer Peter Åhrberg, Stockholm.

Livelong producer Peter Åhrberg

Peter Åhrberg - Producing/Mixing The Livelong June
Peter (formerly Dub Sweden with e.g. monster hit ‘Old house’) is a renowned sound engineer/creator from the Swedish film industry (Wallander, Johan Falk, Farsan, Kenny Begins among others).

He’s also a sought-after live mixer, mixing classic Swedish acts such as e.g. Mats Ronander, Mikael Rickfors, Dan Hylander and Noice.

Peter Åhrberg has a degree in Sound Engineering from Dramatiska Institutets, Stockholm.

And from now on he could add producing and mixing The Livelong June debut to his CV.

It’s been great to work with Peter and we love his subtle creativity, care of details and patience. On top of his professional expertise of course!

Race against time (The song evolves)

by Marcus Rejnevik

The new song is taking shape. Each time new things are added to the song and each time something is dropped out. Thats the fun thing about making music. One day a song can sound completely marvelous and the next it just don’t sound right at all. Now i think it sounds like were getting there. This is the result of a couple of hours me and Marcus spent in the studio yesterday. The structure was already there so Marcus added some cool new synth sounds. its still a few more sounds we need to work on in the intro of the song. The song you hear is a song in the making. Feel free to drop a comment.

Race against time

Here is a song I created with my new Micro Synth pedal. It’s based around the lyrics I posted earlier. The song is about the frustration of time and social demands.
