HUTCH's thoughts on the recording process of the album: "The recording process for "Romance & Melodrama" was a steep learning curve for me. Myself and Shayne Byrne (producer/collaborator) worked using a great programme called Splice, which works via Ableton. We shared files back & forth, from my home studio in Derry, and Shayne's studio in Carlow respectively. Early in the process we decided to work under the principle of treating each song as a single, working to get the best out of each song until we were both satisfied that we had done everything we could to get all we could out of them, in terms of performance, arrangement and production. I knew that the songs were strong and I believe in each of them totally. I can only hope that the listener gets something out of them, and can connect with them, both individually, and as a complete piece."
