Dan Swanö
oznámil svůj plán opětovně otevřít proslulé studio Unisound Recordings, v němž v minulosti nahrávaly veličiny jako OPETH, KATATONIA, MARDUK, DISSECTION, MILLENCOLIN, EDGE OF SANITY a další. Dan chce tentokrát vést studio v poněkud skromnějších poměrech a hodlá se zaměřit spíše na mixování desek a další úpravy zvuku. Mezi jeho poslední klienty patří např. NOVEMBERS DOOM, EDENS FALL, THIS HAVEN a THE PROJECT HATE. Má-li někdo zájem o spolupráci, nechť se obrací na adresu dan@swano.com. Pro představu, spolupráce s Danem vypadá asi takto:
„The albums from NOVEMBERS DOOM and EDENS FALL were recorded in America. The files were sent to me on DVDs and along with a rough-mix and a reference CD (a CD from another artist you wish to have a similar sound to), I mix a track and upload as high-res MP3 to my server...you download and listen in your own hi-fis, cars, etc. and all members join up and make of list of changes. We discuss overall changes like 'The bass is too loud, the vocals needs to cut through more etc.' and also specific changes. The changes are suggested on a timeline like 01:22 'Toms too loud,' 02:32 'Acoustic Guitars lower,' etc., and after a few rounds, the album is mixed and PERFECT!! I have 100% total recall of all the gear in my mix-suite, so it´s only the details you wish to change that change… the rest of the mix remains EXACTLY the same. No matter how cool the studio monitors sound, we all want to hear what it sounds like in our own stereos before we get the feeling that 'It's ready!!' Just imagine to be able to listen to the mix in your own stereos and be able to change the details… and have them corrected within hours!! And once you cannot find any strange levels... that's when the album is ready!!! No more annoying surprises when it's too late!!!!“
