<p>On July 6 we will be digitally re-releasing our "New Wave EP" to commemorate it's 15 year anniversary.</p>
<p>This limited-edition EP was initially released on Rivers Cuomo's label Blue Records and sold at the 2002 Weezer Enlightenment tour (in the US and Canada). “New Wave” contains earlier recordings of “Hush”, “Take Time” and “I Just Wanna Be Loved”, which were later re-recorded for the “Radioactive” album. This version of "I Just Wanna Be Loved" was also featured on the WB hit TV series "Smallville" and released on the show's “Talon Mix” soundtrack. The 2017 digital re-release includes 3 bonus tracks "Once In A While", “Time Of My Life” and “So Far”, which were outtakes from the original Cello Studios and Magnetic Sound sessions.</p>

I am proud to have Produced,Recorded, Mixed ,Mastered, and played keyboards and sing on this badboy...plus work with Kevin Ridel and Jason Moore and redirect the sound in a new and positive direction. We shall see what happens next?? This album is one Pretty Diamond!! <br><br>Peace.<br><br>Matt</p>

<p>But seriously, we're ever so close to finishing this album now. We just need to adjust the backing vocal levels on the chorus of "Don't You Cry" and Matt needs to sing backing vocals on the 2nd verse of "Pretty Diamond". Then master those 2 songs and that's that.</p>

<p>So basically I have 2 songs left to mix, it takes a bit of time and i constantly go back and forth re-evaluating things...This album is killer... so it will be done in 6 to 8 months JK but so many good songs, with textual layers so there is plenty of reason to listen over and over:>) </p>
<p>Peace out girlscout_ Matt</p>

<p>Tonight I re-sang the choruses to "Bend In The Wind" because Shox and Matt did such an amazing job with the backing vocals. At the end of the song Shox and I "go off". It's almost like a vocal battle. Matt, would it kill you to get some A/C in the studio? hahaha</p>

<p>Last night, in the finishing touches stage of recording, Shox laid down some ripping backing vocals to "Don't You Cry", "Pretty Diamond" and "Bend In The Wind". Just before the session Kevin texted the following message to Shox: "Singing contest. Go!"</p>
<p>Today Matt mixed and mixed and mixed....</p>

<p>Finished BASS with Justin Fisher last night. We did "Pretty Diamond", "Don't you Cry", and "Time Keeps Running". One of which is the title track for the Album. So now it is fitting the pieces together, clean up with some additional keyboards and vocal arrangements, Mixing and Mastering... I have my work cut out for myself... but it is our jewel," Shine, shine, shine, pretty diamond of mine".</p>

<p>I have to say I am very pleased, with how things are coming along, I have been doing rough mixes, experimenting a bit as I wait and plot the final elements. I have even let a few close friends hear some of what I have pulled together in the last few days, and the feedback so far has confirmed, what I initially felt all along...that the songs are Great! The arrangements are Great! This is a new Am Radio! Catchy songs with musical depth. Very proud to be involved with a talented group of guys! I've won an Emmy, but a Grammy is in my sites.</p>
<p>Peace love and Mortar,</p>
<p>Matt</p>

<p>Saturday Night we recorded Bass with Justin Fisher on 4 tracks, 3 left!!! He did a great job, he is such a good musician, I felt weird giving him direction...so I really didn't LOL I would just say "how did you feel about that take?" He pretty much nailed each song in one take, but usually did three and we cut up the best pieces to make one master take.</p>
<p>Live in the present, thats all you got.</p>

<p>Last night Kevin and Matt braved the 100 degree West Valley weather to re-cut the vocals to "Don't You Cry". Tonight Justin lays down the bass to 4 more!</p>

<p>Hey guys, so we have 4 more songs of guitars left! The tracks so far are epic, this album has great songs, tons of depth, and I believe I am pulling the best out of Jason and Kevin... Showcasing the great musicianship they are capable of while still maintaining the integrity of the song. We will post some video cuts soon! Peace love and ROCK! - Matt</p>

<p>Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages... the moment you've been waiting for.... Jason is in the studio! Friday Jason and Matt laid down acoustic guitars to half the album. Today they are tackling the other half, and then next weekend the electric guitars. Matt reports that the acoustics sound amazing!</p>
<p>Matt also joined Jason onstage yesterday afternoon for a song at his gig in Malibu with another talented musician, Steve Luczy.</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt wrapped up the lead vocals to the new album last night, hammering out “Bend In The Wind”. Similar to “Blowin’ Away” there was some trial and error in finding just the right pocket to the mid-rangy chorus. In contrast, the vocal ripping at the tail of the song proved effortless.</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt tracked vocals to "Blowin' Away last night. After hitting the first verse on the very first take, it took an hour singing the chorus over and over and over before it finally clicked. </p>

<p>Kevin and Matt paid some dues last night, tracking the vocals to "Don't You Cry" in 95 degree weather. However, that didn't stop Kevin from enjoying a hot grande soy vanilla latte. The guys also took several lengthy breaks to debate Bible scripture.</p>

<p>Frank whipped off the drums to the last 2 songs today "Bend In The Wind" and "Pretty Diamond". According to the guys, the drum fills at the end of "Bend In The Wind" are epic. There's now talk of some percussion (shakers, tambourine, a fish?)</p>

<p>The guys took a couple weeks off from recording. So where we at now? 2 more drums to go, 7 more bass, 4 more vocals, 2 days worth of guitars, some more keys, mixing and mastering. In the meantime please enjoy this vid of Frank gettin' raw in the studio.</p>

<p>Last night Kevin and Matt tracked the vocals to “Time Keeps Runnin’”, which is the most epic song on the album having 4 choruses and 2 musical interludes. Each chorus was sung a little differently, both lead vocals and harmonies. One harmony part was a unique blend of full voice, head voice, and falsetto. Singers recognize.</p>

<p>Last night Justin Fisher laid down bass to almost half the album. It was a Connecticut reunion of sorts as Justin, Kevin & Matt are all former Connecticutians. They traded stories about the good ole days in between takes: the Manchester Bandroom (Bezzini Brothers), Sunset Strip, Shufflepuck, etc...</p>

<p>Kevin & Matt tracked the lead vocals to "Wastin' Time" tonight. Beforehand Matt made Kevin re-sing "day" and "I" over like 15 times to touch up "The Monster". There may end up being some cool vocal effects on the album, though autotune will not be one of them. And even before that they shot this wacky video.</p>

<p>Frank flexed his muscles on "Blowin' Away". The 8 measure drum roll is quite something else. He also scratched an idea for "Don't You Cry" which he'll wrap up next week. </p>

<p>Frankly my dear I'll go ahead and cut 3 amazing drum takes. That's exactly what Frank did today tracking "When You Call", "Time Keeps Runnin'" and "Choose Love". The best thing is that the guys are just letting him do whatever he wants with the drums and it's been working out perfectly.</p>
<p>In other amazing news, Justin Fisher (Psoma, Nerf Herder, Shufflepuck) is going to play the bass on the album!</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt just scratched the vocals to song #12 "Blowin' Away". Many bad wind related puns were told during the session. Kevin suggested a saw accompaniment. Matt mimicked the sound of a 2 man saw going back and forth. Nope.</p>

<p>Matt’s been on a keyboard jazz odyssey this week adding scratch keys to “Don’t You Cry”, “Bend In The Wind” and “Time Just Keeps…”. The album is becoming very colorful.</p>
<p>Today Kevin and Matt scratched vocals to “Pretty Diamond”. Kevin stopped the song cracking up to the verse lyrics: “With just one taste of your milk, I went and bought the whole farm”. Re-write!</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt scratched vocals to "Don't You Cry" today, after reviewing the BPM's (beats per minute) of all 12 songs on the production spread sheet. Kevin's voice was extra scratchy, still not 100% recovered from his laryngitis a couple weeks back. He promises to sing along with Journey's "Greatest Hits" album until it's go time on the actual vocal recording. Anybody want to loan Kevin an old muscle car for authenticity?</p>

<p>Testimony from Kevin regarding the 2013 AM Radio album:</p>
<p>“Musically, this is the most exciting project I’ve ever been a part of. Some of these songs are personal favorites from stacks of songbooks written over the years, old and new. And they are no longer just my songs. I took them as far as I can with an acoustic guitar, my voice, pen and notebook. Jason (Moore) has been making them his own by arranging them and adding his own special magic. None more evident than song #12 “Pretty Diamond”, the scratch guitars laid down just last night.</p>
<p>There are also some songs Jason started and then handed off to me to finish, like “The Monster” and “Time Keeps Runnin’ Out On Me”. These songs challenged me to explore a side of myself I wouldn’t have on my own. I love writing melodies and lyrics to an amazing instrumental track. One of the hallmark AM Radio songs “Taken For A Ride” was also written in this manner.</p>
<p>Enter Matt (Corey) into equation. First of all there would not even be a 2013 AM Radio album if Matt hadn’t suggested it in the first place, a few months ago. Not only is Matt an Emmy award winning studio engineer, but we’ve been good friends since we were teens back in Connecticut. If anyone knows my singing voice it’s Matt. We’ve already been in the studio together the past few years recording for my Christian solo project. By now, Matt has my voice dialed.</p>
<p>AM Radio somehow just can’t seem to escape the Weezer connection (not that we’re trying to). Even not having spoken to Rivers (Cuomo) for a few years, his influence still communicates to me. I’m constantly reminded of a conversation we had many years ago, in which I was advised “you have to play with professionals”. Well, it doesn’t get more professional than Jason, Matt and Frank (Reina), who practice their art form every single day.</p>
<p>And then there’s Shox (Shoxwaken Hincks) who is singing backing vocals on the album. I’m not sure if he even practices (or has to), but he’s definitely a much better singer than I am. Hehe.”</p>

<p>Twas a busy day yesterday in AM Radioland. Frank whipped off the drums to 2 rockers, “The Monster” and “Empty”. Frank is really proving to be a one take wonder, further reinforcing the adage “practice makes perfect”. </p>
<p>Jason also scratched guitars to “Blowin’ Away”, reminiscent of a spaghetti western with elements of Henry Mancini’s “Mystery Movie Theme” (which happens to be the ringback tone on Kevin’s cell). This song was written backstage on the Weezer Dusty West tour back in 2002.</p>

<p>It was a slow week as Kevin has partial laryngitis and Matt is busy polishing his Emmy. Frank took a stab at "The Monster" to flesh out drum parts and Jason is working on "Blowin' Away" as song #11.</p>
<p>Oh yea, and happy belated birthdays to Jason (Nov 26) and Kevin (Dec 6).</p>
AM Radiotag:amradiotheband.com,2005:Post/60492972012-11-30T12:00:00-12:002012-11-30T19:53:46-12:002013 Album Play-By-Play #14
<p>Last night Kevin and Matt busted out scratch vocals to songs #8 and 9, "Empty" and "Time Just Keeps On Runnin' Out On Me" aka "Doozy". Matt still needs to come up with some ooh's and aah's and/or keys to "Doozy". The vocal sessions have been very creative since Matt is also a singer/songwriter. Between him and Kevin there are never any shortages of melodies, harmonies and bad studio humor.</p>
<p>Jason has also been very busy tooling out different arrangements to song #10, "Don't You Cry". The target for the 2013 album is 12 songs. Folks, we're almost there! Frank is about to start cranking out more drums.</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt scratched some vocals tonight to "The Monster". It's the type of song that you could yell "yeehaw! it's Woody's round-up" over the instrumental section, because that's exactly what happened.</p>

<p>Shox and Matt cut backing vocals to "Wastin' Time" and "Choose Love" the other night. Yesterday Jason scratched out guitars to the next 2 songs in the queue, "The Monster" and "Empty".</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The songwriting frenzy of zero hour songs continues. Jason has uploaded a slew of instrumentals to the AM Radio Dropbox. Every time Kevin listens to one of them a new song ends up getting created. We've lost track of the master list at this point.</p>

<p>Right now in this very moment longtime buddy of Kevin, Shoxwaken Hincks (World Without Sundays), is busting out some serious backing vocals with Matt. Some may remember an early AM Radio show in Hollywood where Kevin And Shox duet-ed on "No Diggity" by Blackstreet. Some may even be trying to forget. hehe</p>

<p>We are in the middle of a songwriting frenzy here. There's no telling how long it may last.</p>

<p>Kevin and Matt just tracked scratch vocals to "Bend In The Wind (It's Only Love)". There was some serious belting on this one a la "Becoming You".</p>
<p>2 new zero hour tunes were added to the list of album contenders: "Don't You Cry" and "The Monster".</p>

<p>This is the “week of Frank”. Unfortunately that doesn’t mean it’s going to be a short work week. Though it does mean that Frank is knocking out drums to the new AM Radio album from his studio in the OC. Yesterday he laid down 2 very different but amazing takes for “No Matter”, and today 3 for “Wastin’ Time”.</p>
<p>In other news, Jason tracked scratch guitars in a higher key to “Bend In The Wind (It’s Only Love)”. Following the trail of keys, the song has gone from F# to D to F.</p>

<p>This just in... today Frank laid down some solid drums to "Slowdance". Sh** just got real!</p>
<p>The guys cut scratch vocals to "When You Call" last night, opening the song with the throwaway line “this goes out to the telemarketers”. For the second time they attempted "Bend In The Wind (It's Only Love)" but concluded the song is not as dynamic in a lower key. Speaking of keys, Matt has been adding oldies style keyboard parts to some of the songs, working on them into the wee hours of the night. There is a wondrous collaboration occurring between Kevin, Jason and Matt on this album.</p>
<p>The quote of the evening was prompted by Matt trying to get Kevin to sing a line in falsetto by making a hand gesture (resembling a fairy sprinkling fairy dust). Kevin's response, "Dude, please don't ever do that (hand thing) again."</p>

<p>Jason finished the scratch guitars to "Bend In The Wind (It's Only Love) last week and last night Kevin cut the scratch vocals to "No Matter". Matt and Kevin came up with a harmony/counter melody for the chorus that is as strong if not stronger than the chorus melody itself. Magic does happen in the studio.</p>

<p>Kevin cut scratch vocals to "Slow Dance" tonight and then lent some super sonic harmonies to Matt Corey's heavy metal project. "Slow Dance" is in a lower vocal register like the verses of "I Just Wanna Be Loved". </p>
