I’ve been working on a more interactive music and tech website called The J. Dale Project. It’s a collection of things that have helped me with Noiseprint and will help any up and coming band get onto the online marketing side of promotion.

• Finishing off a song that’s been 1 year in the making! I love going back through old ideas. Jamie #

• Still sad that the @imogenheap video blogs are over like I said before please buy her new album “Elipse” when it comes out 24 July.Aidan #
• Spent all day in the creative kitchen with jamie & lana comming up with new ideas… can’t say what now but it’s gonna be great! Aidan #
• Talking to mom on SKYPE. How cool is she? Teaching me about Adobe After FX & she did her PHD in MANGA and Film! I love her. Aidan #
• She also bought Massive Attack, Portishead & DM Violator before me & then showed me David Lynch. If I could follow Friday my mom I would! A #
• @Shamus_Neeson Hi are we related? My Dad is Doc Neeson & I have an uncle with your name. I don’t know too much of his side of the family. A in reply to Shamus_Neeson #

• @IzzerMcDeanie Justice are indeed fantastic producers but at the end of the day, they are still French. in reply to IzzerMcDeanie #
• Hey beautiful! Contact Kate havnevik on twitter.She’s amazing & you will get along like a house on fire.Write me back I’m feeling rejected!A #

• @imogenheap woo hoo! You finally did it!! Congrats, if your ever In Brighton I’m buying you a drink. Can’t wait to hear it. x Aidan in reply to imogenheap #
• Sunday roasts r the cure 4 hangovers! Looks like I’m getting my emulator samples…. Thanks ebay. A #
• I’ve very nearly finished the latest catchy little number. Been messing around with the boss bass synth for the “sound”. J. #
• I love my harmonizer, just found a great “thicken” setting that I think must have been used on so many classic songs. I should go to bed. A #
• Question for all: What’s your favorite BPM? #
• just re worked a song I wrote when I was 14…so innocent and cheesy. Tried not to produce it like a 20’s person & keep the teen vibe. A #
• @pw_official WTF! America is fucked up! I lived In Ohio until I was 14 so I feel your pain. Bouncers are meant to look after you! Aidan in reply to pw_official #
• Sadly for NP we sound like another artist so didn’t get the sync agency in USA we wanted Boo hoo. But they were very nice about it. A #
• If anyone in America has a relative that works in sync & likes our music feel free to tell them we are on the hunt. Aidan #
• First look: running Cubase 4.5 on Windows 7. It’s rock solid so far. J. #
• Just met a cool animator who would like to turn NP into 2d goodness. To see her work Check out: http://vimeo.com/user1274781 x Aidan #
• @trent_reznor Hi Trent, it’s sad that ugly geeks are giving you shit but just ignore them. Think of it like going to highschool in Ohio. A in reply to trent_reznor #
• Happy birthday to Steve! Happy birthday to you! Hip hip horray! Aidan #
• just wrote a NIN style piano piece for a friends film in Zurich. That’s all for today as it’s birthday festivities day. Not mine Aidan #
• Jamie and Aidan are doing the rounds at the London music show. Anyone else here? #

• Wrote a new song while watching sand castles being created at alarming rates around me. I’m built for the beach, not the sea. Jamie. #fb #
• Oh the green eyed monster strikes again. Jamie is on a beach and I went to ikea and bought extremely large wine glasses. A #
• At least now I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve only had 1 glass the lovely Mamio left today so back in the studio 2mrw. A #
• Today I decided to quit smoking…(Again) Finding it really hard! Trying to stay very busy with music so I can’t think about it. A #
• Last time I managed to quit for over a year then I went to Spain and started again ;-( smoked twice as much to make up lost time. Oh no. A #
• Going sightly mad listening to this song over and over but I must press on. It’s sounding great but something isn’t quite right yet. A #
• oh my god talk about RSI ! Been editing vocal takes all day. I love mtron so resampled it & made some great new sounds for “hold on”. A #
• The song has morphed into a new creature. it’s now some strange mix between stevie nicks & DM. Added an Asian violin & lots of vocals. A #
• I hope people get us changing our style. I still love chill out but I just feel it’s time to do something different. A #
• @biffco Ah yes. Novacaine was the anthem to my summer ‘96. Jamie. in reply to biffco #
• Do you know how many sleepless weeks, nay, years go into recording, producing & mastering?…. #
• All so you can compress it into a 128kbps .mp3 & listen to it through your iPod and it’s “tin can & string” earphones. Pleeeeeease… #
• It’s time to start doing music justice. Music needs to be portable these days, but does it have to come at the expense of sound quality? J. #
• Do you we even care anymore? #
• Coffee & sunshine break then back to loop loop loop & more overdubs… Wouldn’t it be great to have an assistant Aidan #
• It’s all worth it when we get all those nice comments from people & can look back in a year & say “I made that” with pride. A #
• Aidan! Stop injecting your nice tweets betwix my rants J. #
• Sorry Jamie #
• Well it’s Casio to the rescue!!! I was doing the classic “it needs something” tried every F***ing soft synth I own didn’t sound right… #
• Then I looked to the corner of the room and saw my CZ101 ran it through the lexicon MPX100 & “voila” that was it! Sounds great. A #
• Now I’m replacing all soft synths with with Casio CZ101 & Korg Ms2K. The ones that stay will go through the Lexicon. Simpler but warmer. A #
• Watching a guy play DM covers on youtube: http://bit.ly/XCNeE #
• Wish I had an Emulator… (sigh) Aidan #
• Actually, does anyone know where I can get the samples that came with the old Emulators? Thanks. Aidan #
• No emulator sample replies??? Well hopefully after this week we will have 4 new songs! Quite a change from Noiseprint 1.0 Aidan #
• Indeed. Mind you, we will be beta testing Noiseprint 2.0 first. J #
• Oh the drums, funk the drums, check the reverse flipside and shuffle those drums!!! J. #
• @trent_reznor you were never really hard. More a putty consistancy, changing with the temp. Existing in many states like a science lesson. in reply to trent_reznor #
• @tancopsey Aidan and I voted BNP. Was that bad? in reply to tancopsey #
• @tom_cosm The secret is to combine the two. Find a girl with with a good swing and shuffle. Those quantized girls are no good. in reply to tom_cosm #
• Well I bet jamie wasn’t expecting early 90s chord sequences & bells when he started writing hurricane but it’s sounding very catchy! A #
• First song we’ve co written in ages! Maybe we will release both versions just so you can here the crazy jurney it went on Aidan #

• Found the perfect chorus for “Hold on” Keep having images of a tornado ripping through a trailer camp in America & that inspired me. lol #
• Need to find a better chorus for “dancing by myself/boom boom boom” as I don’t want anyone to think I was ripping off B.I.P. #
