Linkin Park Words From The Studio: 22nd April 2002 - writing

writing
...still off tour and still working on the remix cd. we put the next album on hold for a a week or two, in order to get this thing worked out. it's coming out great.

we are having a very difficult time selecting which remixes are going to be on the album. for each track, numerous artists have submitted material, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to choose. so far, we're pretty sure that the following artists are going to appear on the final album: aaron lewis, jay gordon, pharoah monche, the alchemist, chali 2na of jurassic 5, mickey petralia, dj z-trip, and there is a possibility that a number of others will be contributing vocals and other instruments on various tracks. i've been put in charge of helping the writing process along and coordinating with the remixers and performers, and i'm VERY excited for you to hear it. people have been asking what it sounds like; expect to hear a concentration on the sampled elements, and elaborations on those themes.

in general, we're expecting to have it in stores at the end of july. its taking a long time, but we want to make sure every little detail is covered...
