Steve Howe: making a big serve to his son Dylan.

Yes guitarist Steve Howe, who is set to release his new album Guitarscape with his son, Dylan, on September 27 via his own Sound record label, has likened the recording process to a game of tennis. Engaging in file sharing, the pair bounced ideas to each until the tracks took shape.
“It was a bit like that,” he says with a laugh. “I’d get the bulk of the track together and put a decent bass on it or something of a guide and send it to him. And then he heard it and would suggest a rough guideline on the drums, which he plays in his own unique way. It certainly helps to make the final thing great, and it by adding and taking away, it’s a process that’s so fluid now.”
