Well, the current state of our affairs and the new events make an necessary explanation in my own words, as " the brains " of Flowersongs Time Filters.
Possibly the first thing that you think is something like "what happened with the recording sessions?". Simple: we don't remain satisfied with the result and we decide not lose energy after a first mixing, leaving that tracks in a booth of "never listened, out of FSTF". Often it's very good do these things, focusing in the following step. It's not necessary that everything what you record see the light, after.
Our particular mark III has not given the results for that we were waiting. Sometimes I see that it finds it hard to many people understand that this they are rock songs, but that we do jazz. Oh, yes! Slightly wild jazz, but ultimately it's jazz. This erroneous concept can turn out inside the band, and this is a real problem. This doesn't have to sound as the Miles Davis experiments in the 70, is not my joke.
We are living a intense casting of drummers for our mark IV. A casting opened for possible last-minute incorporations, if you're interested. We have clearly for what battery we bet and the people in our list have a suitable profile, but I would love to meet somebody unknown. Always is good, knowing new talents.

But there is something more.
These arrangements were born to have an important harmonic support. When we incorporate a pianist in the band we were looking for a different sound, always an acoustic piano, never something electric in the keys. Ok, that did not work and we will not go back, but we need this harmony again, this serenity.
We have a new musician in Flowersongs. Oriol Miró Caparrós has entered in the band like guitarist, pianist, tres cubano, samplers and programing... and all these little things that we think.
It's a hard work, but Mr. Miró is a very qualified person. Guitarist of rock and jazz, composer of original soundtracks and a very good arrenger. This sounds fine!
Though we "close for vacations" we have a very hard work and we will not stop. This is only a little rest for you and very hard job for us.
