Let's see what else...tons of exciting things going on...
Still working on new music ...got sent some fabulous new tracks from Dean Garcia (Curve), there is talk of possibly doing an EP together. kaRIN added a little vocal touch to close friend Monica Richard's (Faith & the Muse) upcoming solo CD.
The creative juices are certainly flowing...just not enough time in a day.
We're still in the middle of working on our new (still untitled) album. Like we've said before, working on a Collide album is never a fast process...there is still lots more work to do. There are about 21 song ideas on the table now...so we will see what happens.
In other creative happenings, both kaRIN and myself have been working on a couple of songs with Dean Garcia of Curve. We aren't sure where these songs will be released, but at the moment, we're just going song by song, and everyone involved seems excited to work on more material.
kaRIN is also working on some vocals with Mike Fisher of Amish Rake Fight/ formally Machines and Loving Grace. Mike, for those who don't remember, did a great remix of Slither Thing, which appeared on Vortex, which incidentally started the whole Vortex remix ball rolling.
Some exciting news on the horizon...kaRIN has been working on a song with Dean Garcia formally of the band Curve. It is still in the early stages and who knows what will happen with it. This from Dean's website...
" You may have heard of the dark musings of a band called Collide...Oddly otherworldly instrumentation and production abounds...well this collaboration will fit very nicely into that mind set. kaRIN has recorded vocals on a track which I sent her recently which is both menacing and extremely delicate. I'm working on the piece and have decided to write a new as yet unheard by kaRIN section that will bring the whole thing together and tempt the listener into loosing the plot altogether....Again this could be a track for the collab album mentioned below but I have a feeling this will be a standalone track that will not fit with anything other than itself....If that makes any sense !!"
We thought we would post the Curve remix that Statik did a few months ago. It is unavailable on the Curve web site, but we had a few people ask about it. Unreadable Communication - Collide remix
Thanks to Toni and Dean of Curve for making great music.
