BAT FOR LASHES
Finished and delivered a spec remix/recontextualization of "I Saw A Light" for Bat For Lashes, the beautiful work of British singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist Natasha Khan. Steeped in deep dark dub and field recordings, it became a meditation toward the transcendent... the ecstatic. Hope she likes it.
TRILON
In other news, mixing/Remixing full length record Trilon featuring Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and drumming legend Michael Shrieve (Santana), with Skerik (Critters Buggin), Brad Hauser (Critters Buggin, Edie Brickell & New Bohemians), James Rotondi (Air, Grassy Knoll), and Reggie Watts (Maktub). Fognode has worked with Shrieve in many capacities over the last 12 years, but this marks the first full length collaboration. More on this to come.

BELA FLECK
Played lap steel/sounds on "D'Gary Jam" for Bela Fleck's Tales from the Acoustic Planet Vol. 3 - Throw Down Your Heart
I miss working on music with you... there's not very many outright crazy bastards that I'm in touch with down here anymore... I might have to just fully go overboard and become the craziest bastard I know... Hope you're well. Downloading the new record now... standby.
Please put me down for a signed copy of your new CD!
'Across the Pond' is amazing and 'The Sound in My Head' is a masterpiece - like some sublime peal of bells. IMHO, this is your best stuff since Beat Hollow.
