Peter Murphy in the Recording Studio for The Lady ParaNorma

I asked Peter to add some vocal touches to the soundscape when we were recording his narration to the final edit of the film. The entire room fell silent as he began to orchestrate what he described as a "white tribal choir".

Peter layered a collection of what I can only describe as primal screaming, ghostly moans and angelic sweet nothings into one beautiful monstrous sonic ribbon.

Keep in mind, that this was recorded without any fx on the board and it was done in one take.

"Was that ok?' he asked politely when he was done.

The lot of us sat there unresponsive for a more than a moment, paralyzed by our own goosebumps.

"Yes Peter, that was 'good'...."
