HARMONY RECORDS HR-0003 SKYE NEVER SAY GOODBYE
Harmony Records announces the release of it's latest album - Skye Never Say Goodbye, a Mandarin pop covers album featuring the well known Singapore vocalist Skye.
Skye, who previously released the album "Blue Skye" on Harmony (HR0002) several years ago, returns to the studio with a uplifting collection of more recent Mandarin (plus one Cantonese and one English) pop hits including well known songs by Jay Chou, Ah-Mei, Jacky Cheung, and Mavis Hee. There is a stunning demo quality Mandarin cover version of the Japanese classic Ikanaide (Qiu Yi Nong). And as a bonus Skye delivers a memorable cover of the George Michael global hit Careless Whisper.
The album was recorded and mixed on 24/96 hi-res here in Singapore by engineer Roger Montejano using Protools HD and on a vintage SSL analogue board with an upgraded power supply. Skye performs together with a top team of local session musicians including the guitarist/arranger Sebastian Ho (who has played, recorded and toured extensively with George Lam) and top Singaporean jazz keyboardist Mei Sheum. The album was mastered in Los Angeles by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering.
