Building the wall of sound

What started out as a recording session for "Hamlet" turned into a day of negative progress for "The Clapping Song." Mark vetoed his own vocal track, and Steven removed all other vocal tracks to clear up extra channels for instruments. The instrumental tracks will now take up all 16 available slots. We will then perform a reduction mixdown of the instrumental into the two stereo tracks, freeing up 14 tracks for vocals and other stuff. Vintage studio technique for a vintage sound.
