Transcription

Writing and recording

I Want That You Are Always Happy was produced between tours in three studios over the course of 2010: Mark Myers' Townsville studio in late 2009/early 2010. Midlake's Denton Studios in March/April 2010. Mark Myers' Cairns studio, from August to November 2010. The album was recorded, mixed and co-produced by Mark Myers.[1] Mark Myers' Cairns studio was built by the band and it was where they recorded a majority of the album.[2]

The band members did consider self-producing the record however found they had a lack of experience and knowledge in production. Rohin Jones spoke about how the band was never pleased with the final product and kept restarting, which lead to them recording throughout the year: "we scrapped it and then tried it again and scrapped that and tried it again and scrapped that, so we’ve really pieced it together over time. And maybe that’s just how we work and we haven’t come to terms with it yet, but it’s definitely not the best process for writing an album."[7]

Jordan Ireland was critical about the album: "With this album I don’t really feel like we nailed it, we’re definitely falling into a lot of categories that’ve been done before and I don’t feel like it’s anything completely original or anything like that, but that’s kind of the goal that we’re heading towards."[7]
