Last night, Carl, Mike and I (Jon) began work on one of the final songs for Et Cetera titled "All of it All." The song dates back to the original 2005 electropop demos that would eventually coerce Tommy and Dave into collaborating with Mike and Carl for future songwriting purposes and led to the creation of Blasé Splee. These songs haven't been heard by many people that aren't close to us, and we're very pleased to be able to include one of them on our upcoming album.
Carl and Mike recording "All of it All"
The song was originally recorded with acoustic guitars, with pots and pans used as percussion. We decided to stick with the original formula for the song, but expand on it and improvise a bit.

I'll continue to update as we finish the song over the next couple of days, and contunue these updates as our record nears completion. We're very close, and we can't wait to share it with everyone!
Cheers,
Blasé Splee
