Ivan and the Backpackers

Blue Mountains hardcore street punks, Ivan and the Backpackers, recently recorded what we believe to be their second release with us. The recordings will be part of a split release with Newcastle's Obat Batuk.

All engineered, recorded, mixed and mastered in one afternoon, by us and Ivan and the Backpackers.

Interesting story, because the lads wanted a solid "old school" punk sound (say, similar to Minor Threat, Black Flag or super early Nirvana), we were forced to strip back and use one of the executive bathrooms to record in. Recorded with 12 channels, mixed down to 8 tracks, and vocals overdubbed at the end. All recorded live in our superior bathroom facilities.
