that's just over two hours of music in all. for full details of all these tracks, please investigate the tags to the right. some of them have changed title - sometimes more than once. we'll update the previous posts on this blog to accomodate all these changes.

now that shamania is finally out, we'll be putting up another post shortly detailing what's next for logos so stay tuned for that.

shamania

our third album shamania is scheduled for release on 21st september 2012. herewith the track listing:

01. anodyne (18.51)
02. deepblue2519 (3.44)
03. unified field object (15.00)
04. [+/-] (13.33)

all tracks by alessa otto / darren francis. recorded summer 2010 - spring 2011, final mix summer 2012.

regular blog readers may notice that this is shorter than the last track listing we posted; we dropped two tracks as we felt the album flowed a lot better without them. we'll put them out in another medium at some point, possibly as free tracks of the week.

sha-bleedin-mania

we've finished the mix of our third album shamania. we'll set a release date once we've finalised the artwork, which won't take long.

herewith the track listing:

01. anodyne (18.51)
02. deepblue2519 (3.44)
03. [ / ] (14.59)
04. unified field object (15.00)
05. [ - / + ] (13.33)
06. [ - ] (30.44)
07. hypogirl (5.45)
08. shamania (18.15)
09. sidereal (21.30)
10. tesseract [deepblue2519 reprise] (3.42)

at last! says the world, and we concur. many of these tracks are nigh two years old.

the more astute amongst you, and regular logos blog readers, will note that a number of tracks from these sessions don't appear in this final listing. we know. it changed a great deal, tracks added, tracks taken away, but this listing is the one that works best. we'll put out the remainder, free tracks of the week or elsewhere; one way or another you'll eventually get to hear them all.

[edit, 25 october 2012] we spoke too soon here; shamania was remixed quite a bit after we made this post...

logos free track of the week # 15

for a little while we've been working on the mix of our third album shamania. the current track listing (albeit still subject to change though we doubt it'll differ much) is as follows:-

regular readers of our blog may remember that a little while back we posted provisional track listings for two albums-in-progress, shamania and everything we ever were. everything we ever were is on indefinite hold, though a few of the tracks are scheduled for shamania.

we'll let you know when it's all finished (we're hoping it'll be this side of christmas though we're not promising anything) and will also shortly be putting out some tracks from this album for you to listen to. you can already hear provisional versions of a couple on our myspace page.

everything we ever were

01. the side effects of october
02. desert star 1
03. he knows the use of ashes
04. deepblue2519
05. dreamer
06. lend you
07. crepuscular
08. friends
09. thursday to wednesday [into the void]
10. be with me
11. sunday to tuesday [no one calls]
12. everybody goes
13. tesseract [deepblue2519 reprise]

tesseract [deepblue2519 reprise]

tesseract (deepblue2519 reprise) is a new track, though sibling to our earlier track deepblue2519 which we still love for its absurdity and for the absurdity of its creation. we did the first run-through of this on 30th october 2010, and finalised it today, 3rd november 2010. 30th october was of course the night we were getting the gehenna now album ready for release (and will now admit, though we said the mix had been finished a few weeks prior, that we did remix those three bones * about 30 minutes before gehenna now went on sale. ahh the luxury/allowed indulgence of digital releases!). no matter now, gehenna now is past, and all else is future.

* what did we remix? there was a particular transition point midway through the track which we were happy with but never that happy with, and were suddenly struck with a way of rendering better.**

** and no doubt could still find same for every track on the album, over and over and never finalised, but now it's released with all failings intact and with closure for us we endeavour not to listen to it again. as we say, all is future.

deepblue2519

we finished mixing the gehenna now album two weeks back and we're currently finalising the artwork. release date is 31st october 2010. an apt date? of course.

we've done a new track tonight, deepblue2519. odd but interesting, we like it. fire in the mind indeed.

regarding darren francis' voice at the end of this track, df had originally intended to record something very different but these 'aside' comments were what we liked best about that recording and what we opted to use in the end. there may or may not be other things buried deep in the mix if you listen hard enough.... we'll bung it on one or another of our online profiles anon.

on that note, this last week we've re-jigged our myspace, facebook, and reverbnation playlists with new mixes of gehenna now tracks and other tracks. have a listen if you fancy.
