It’s always hard to describe what music sounds like, without using references to other bands. It’s natural that we try and describe sound in terms that are pretty common. As I was driving home from the studio tonight I tried to put into words, how I think WHT and BLCK can be described, without using band-references.
If WHT was warm and had a wood-like sound, BLCK is metallic in it’s sound and the songs have a different structure than the ones on WHT. The material on BLCK is machine-meets-man and not man-meets-machine like WHT. It’s all about the foundation, and WHT has a foundation in classic songwriting, while BLCK draws it’s strength from the techno scene.
Day one is over and I am on my way to bed. I’ll be in the studio again, tomorrow around noon. Stay tuned.
Where’s the “Like” button on this page?
I like your description of WHT and the common terms of describing the tunes. Thanks

Please make the “Miserable girl” cover available for download somewhere. It’s diabolically awesome.
