@e.r.thorpe playing Tramlines, Sheffield. I’m happy to say Emma has agreed to let Bible, a track of hers I produced, feature on the forthcoming Torn Sail album. Photo by @buffaloghost.music #tornsail #erthorpe #huwcostin #buffaloghost

Posted @withrepost • @huwcostin With Earth the Californian Love Dream circa 2001 at Gorthleck recording for the Pink Pink Skin single. Our sometime synth player Ben Smith invited us up. It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever played. He still records there - most recently working on the last Smith & Mudd album. I’m glad to say we’re all still in touch. Ben (aka BJ) brings his electronic wizardry, and Jonny his acoustic drum wizardry to the forthcoming Torn Sail album.

This little picture of a prince, a princess is one of the few remaining treasures I have from my days working at the Cottesmore & Somerby Household Refuse Sites in the early ‘90’s. I wrote the germs of a lot of songs there in my cabin, out in the sticks, during 12 hour days in the snow and sun often alone, earning my pound an hour cash-in-hand with a generous psychedelic breakfast thrown in. The prince, the princess inspired Sadness All Over - a song from the new @torn_sail album. It’s just gone for mastering, and should be out in the world next year. We’ll see. #tornsail #sciencefriction #psychedelic #huwcostin @michaelchapmanguitar @e.r.thorpe @brown_fang @lee.horsley.18 @movedrill @henryclaude_ @lemone_ranger @jonny8track @joakim_boren @specialdesignstudiouk

So sad to be leaving Eastfield Primary School after teaching guitar & keyboard, and helping with the orchestra for 5 or 6 years. Such a lovely school, and lovely kids and staff, but I’ve gotta make time to write. My last day was brightened by the first fan-mail I’ve received. Fame at last.

The view from the sofa this evening. Tracking for Shrinkwrap. Balmy. Just what’s required. @brown_fang @henryclaude_ @matthorobin @mighty_clouds_of_harmony #tornsail #studiolife #huwcostin

Vocals now recorded for Blood Drain Away, the last track still in the machine for the forthcoming Torn Sail record. I’ve been knocked out by Dean Geary’s words and delivery since playing a few gigs with him in the artists refuge that is the North Nottinghamshire town of Retford. I’m so pleased and grateful he let me use two of his recordings in the maelstrom of music the band and I have made - spoken word pieces - ‘Drive’ and ‘Steerpike Rainbow’. The moment I set his voice against the music was like a lightning strike. These moments are the moments a musician, a producer, an artist lives for. #tornsail #spokenword #swanyardstudios
