GENITORTURERS have completed tracking and are currently underway mixing the new CD. Vocaliste Gen describes production as a team effort, pulling in a bevy of notable mix masters!This week GENITORTURERS are mixing in Orlando with producer Dave Rave Ogilvie at RMP studios.
Hailing from Vancouver, BC, Dave Ogilvie has worked with a long list of talented acts.(Nine Inch Nails, David Bowie, Motley Crue, Skinny Puppy, Puff Daddy,Marilyn Manson and Sloan to name just a few) and is a master at the art of programming and mixing. He has been described as the 4th member of Skinny Puppy, for his strong contributions to much of that bands genre defining industrial sound. In recent years Dave has worked closely assisting Trent Reznor and on numerous NIN releases including the bands most latest live DVD which he mixed.
Dave Ogilvie has a long history with GENITORTURERS, stepping in to mix their 1993 debut IRS records release 120 Days of Genitorture and producing most of their MACHINE LOVE cd which included a cover of the Divinyls I Touch Myself which incidentally he inspired and was hell bent on having Gen remake in her unique style.
Gen describes the bands new highly anticipated album release as genre defying: "We went back to our roots, to what inspired each of us to play music.. and based on the eclectic nature of each of the members musical tastes these roots run deep and wide. Combine this with the bands evolved level of songwriting and newly mastered talents and instrumentation (Evil D taking on wailing on upright bass to add to his reperatoire..) We feel that this is has given birth to an album that is captivating and truly diverse.
Our approach is not unlike that of Alice Cooper and Bob Ezrin on their Welcome to My Nightmare album.. where each track encompasses a chapter in an ongoing storyline and in GENITORTURERS case..picking up where our earlier album 'SIN CITY' left off.
The end result we feel will be a redefining pivotal album for GENITORTURERS which will also give birth to intense new live show elements that the band is so widely known for.
We felt it was important to engage producers in the mix process who we knew would be dedicated to maintaining the diverse dynamic moods for each song."
The majority of the album was recorded in the Genitorturers own COMPOUND STUDIOS with additional drum tracking at Tampa's REDROOM studios. Rave will be mixing tracks in Orlando at RMP studios home to Nsync/Backstreet boys producer Veit Renn. Mixing will also take place in Hollywood at THE CHOP SHOP by Scott Humphrey (Rob Zombie, Motley Crue, Metallica, Tommy Lee) and in LA at Linda Perry's KUNG FU GARDENS studio by Seth Von Paulis (Courtney Love, Gwen Stefani, Depswa).
The band will be plotting a worldwide onslaught in support of the album following it's release later this year!
