Sessions for the next album, part 1

Hi there!

I was talking about the next BTZ album in my last post. (The real second album, not the remix album, right?) Well, last week I spent 2 days back in Montpellier to work on some new songs with Lühje (who is also in charge of SHIFTED's mastering) and my friend April from Finland- they are providing vocals for some of the songs on the album! We had great fun recording, even if there was some SERIOUS heat waves in southern France at the time.
Here are some photos of these.. "sweating" sessions- please excuse the lousy image quality, it was SO hot in Montpellier, and my cellphone was dying too.



Dealing with the album itself, writing is actually almost over. Some parts are missing here and there, but the overall sound and ambient is already well settled. I'm currently looking for fun and interesting ways to share the project progress with you, so stay tuned ;)
See you soon, take care!

Petite mise à jour !

Hello friends, how's your summer going so far?

Just to let you know. Our remix album SHIFTED is being mastered right now by Lühje (Primate Audio / Stolearm) and will be released very soon. Honestly our fellow remixers did an amazing job in "breaking" the songs - the whole album is very dense and diversified, and I just can't wait to share it with you!

Meanwhile, the proper 2nd BTZ album is in the works. Some clues about how it will sound: back to the industrial roots, lots of digital-delayed guitars, violence, ultra melodism, beautiful guests, more violence, and even some screams in French. LOL

Cheers!

Further down the shift

Between The Zones and Délivrances are pleased to announce the upcoming release of SHIFTED, a "distorted" version of the SHIFTINGS album released in 2013.

SHIFTED will gather unreleased tracks and alternative versions of songs from SHIFTINGS: raw demos, instrumentals, and remixes made by fellow artists and bands met by BTZ - Stolearm, TÖT, Red City Noise, Cylenth, Decrease, Ainamaty, RedkiS, Londead, etc - a way to start celebrating 10 years of Between The Zones, a musical journey still animated by the will of bonding together different sound universes.

Conceived as an apostrophe until the release of Between The Zones' sophomore album in 2016, Shifted is planned for late summer 2015.

• Feel free to (re)discover SHIFTINGS on Délivrances' bandcamp

Check out our friends and remixers:

• Ainamaty
• Cylenth
• Decrease
• Londead
• Red City Noise

• Stolearm
• TÖT

Things are about to shift

Despite the silence, Between The Zones is not dead.

Because of many changes in our personal lives this year, we can't exist anymore in the same form that we were until 2013, but it doesn't mean the project won't continue.

I am moving to Paris to start a different life and a new job. As a consequence, BTZ has to adapt itself, and even if our live incarnation is uncertain at the moment, we still have things to say and music to record.

Moreover, 2015 will mark the 10th year of our audio wanderings, and we are going to make special releases throughout the year. I'll keep you informed with what we have in mind. In the meantime, stay tuned and check regularly www.betweenthezones.com (still relevant!)

Have a very merry end of 2014, and see you soon :)
