Cold West

The Cold West Project

Change is coming!
Cold West and the band EZY is joining forces! We will now be a full band and will be able to play live!
Cold West was originally just a group of 2 people (Jens and Anders) created back in 2004. Vidar Skoland joined the band in 2010 and has been a member since. Both he and Anders was also members of EZY(created 2008?) at the same time. The 2 band coexisted for a long time, but now it's time to join forces. We will now be a band of 5 members.
The bandmembers are:
Jens Westmoen (guitar), Anders Kalleberg(vokals), Vidar Skoland(drums), Kevin Haegeland (bass) and Dag Aarnes(guitar)
We have yet to come up with a new band name, but we're working on it.
EZY and Cold West will cease to excist, but will rise as a better band with a different name..
Stay tuned for upcoming events!

Software:

Sonar X1 Producer has been installed. I think I actually liked the 8.5 version better!

Drumkit From Hell Superior 2 running smooth on 64-bit drivers. It works great! Thanks Toontrack!

Hardware:

I've ordered a new headphone amplifier, as I'm not happy with the STK due to noise. I have ordered the ART HeadAmp 6 Pro. I'm very happy with the other ART equipment I have, so I hope the HeadAmp will be of the same quality.
The mesh on my Hart Dynamics kick is finally fixed, so it's back in use.
