THE ROOP band have just returned from Helsinki following an invitation from one of the top three music record companies in the world - “Warner Music”. New songs were born in the studio of this leviathan of record labels. The result is already intriguing.
“This trip was important, because it was a solid step forward. It marks the beginning of the practical international collaboration. We started recordings in a world class studio, had discussions with music producers and marketing professionals. THE ROOP got to know “Warner Music” company, which works with major music names ranging from Madonna or Dua Lipa to „Red Hot Chili Peppers“, up close. Getting into such a music pool is a historical event”, - said band’s producer Lauras Lučiūnas.
In the professional studio in Finland THE ROOP worked for four days. According to the band, Finns take the pandemic very seriously, so there were no handshakes or other direct contact, but the studio activities were organized just perfectly.
“We are happy with this experience. Working with high level professionals in another country is extremely beneficial. We can already hear good results even though the songs are not completely finished yet.” - spoke Vaidotas Valiukevičius, leader of THE ROOP.
Such business trips will happen more frequently in the future. Parallelly, a lot of work is being done remotely, so possible quarantine or travel restrictions will not stop THE ROOP activities. Currently the band is concentrating on 15 new songs, out of which 9 will be included into the upcoming record. Release is planned for next year.
