Twelve went to the CD and the remaining six are in the corner waiting patiently to be released." Then we had to narrow it down to 18 songs, which we recorded and mixed. The writing took about a year we had 27 songs to choose from when we were done. We were in the studio for about five months recording. "Overall, production-wise, we went bigger, because we recorded with more instruments as we had a good budget to finance it. That is something you cannot fix in editing. "When it came time for recording my vocals, our producer said that he doesn't want to overdo it as we don't want to lose the emotion in my vocals. That is why you have to record parts a million times in order for them to come as perfect as possible. Every band wants to songs to sound the best they possibly can on the CD. She said: "I think the sonics would be equally important to any band, not just a symphonic metal band like us. Simone also talked about the production on "The Holographic Principle" and how important it is get the right sound when it comes to symphonic metal. With the new technology and virtual reality glasses we realize reality is generated so perfectly that you can no longer tell the difference, so can reality also be a hologram?" " 'The Holographic Principle' is, basically, that we are living in a hologram.
