The recordings for the album are ready and are currently being mixed.</p>
<p>
Then mastering, design, physical reproduction and .... done!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
In the meantime, we also made a cover Mia from Gorki (a famous Belgian song), you can watch it here (it is in Dutch though): </p>

Dear all</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
In the mean time, we reached an amount of €5500, which is really amazing!</p>
<p>
We'll have a string quartet on the album! :-)</p>
<p>
On top of that, we are making final efforts to raise more funds. We'd love to make a great music video too to promote the album.</p>
<p>
You can still help us by sharing our project!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Talk to you soon,</p>
<p>
x Dorien</p>

We started making our record last Tuesday!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Getting in the studio was not easy, as it is more of a bunker as you can see below. The lady of the house, Miss Pierlé asked me for the password before I could enter. It is very indecent so I won't put it here. </p>
<p>

The studio itself has many peculiar attributes and smells like eucalyptus. This helps to get into the right atmosphere for playing.</p>

Dear investors</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Thanks to you, our crowdfunding is doing great! We already gathered 73% of the budget (22 days passed/ 23 days to go). We are in the newspaper, start to appear on blogs and even got a show booked in Paris! :-)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Although our goal gets closer and closer, we need to keep all hands on deck to reach our target!</p>
<p>
So please, keep on talking about us and sharing our campaign!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Thank you so much!!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
PS: Tonight we play a concert by candle light, in Den Traveir (Menenstraat 13, 8880 Ledegem) at 22.30h. </p>
<p>

<p>
Friends of friends, friends of family, colleagues of friends, colleagues of family... we start to reach a second circle of supporters!</p>
<p>
One third of the project time has passed and we collected one third of the budget, so we're still on track :-)! Thanks so much!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
We start the first recordings on November 1th, so this crowdfunding just has to go right!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Keep helping us by talking about this project:</p>
<p>
- eg. these girls are crazy, they'll never make it</p>
<p>
- or: wow, ambitious</p>
<p>
- or: no way, 10000 euros for an album, that's way too much, I think that's not gonna happen</p>
<p>
- or: yes, big amount, but I do think it's possible! ;-)</p>
<p>

<p>
</p>
<p>
We're almost reaching 30% of our goal, which means we had a good start :-)!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
However, if we don't reach our target, all the money will inevitably go back to the funders, so please help us spread the word about this campaign so we manage reaching the €5000-goal!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Thanks so much for helping out!</p>
<p>
What a warm feeling it is to get support from so many people! </p>
<p>
In only 5 days, we reached 20% of our target, thanks to you :-)!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Apparently, if you get over 20% funding, you have 88% of reaching your target! Woop woop!</p>
<p>
Thanks xxx</p>
