I’m always doing home recordings, demoing songs, so that’s something that’s never really stopped. It just used to be that would be the actual recording. Now we usually demo the songs and figure them out and then bring them into the studio. But I really like all levels of fidelity when it comes to recording — I don’t think there’s a right way or wrong way, it’s just what feels the best with the music you’re making at that time. I could see it being fun to make a more, as you said, lo-fi record. The record we made in Mexico was kind of like that. It was sort of a makeshift studio — we recorded it all on a one-inch, 16-track, analog machine. It was a pretty old-school approach. I don’t know about the four track days, I don’t know if those are gone for good or not.
