Recording sessions began in September 2006, with recording taking place at their own studio in guitarist Teppei Teranishi's home, located in Orange Country, California. Teranishi acted as engineer, and him and the band received separate producer credits; Teranishi had previously produced Kensrue's debut solo album. The band planned to record four EPs of material at the same time. To track the writing and recording progress of the project, the band had an online studio journal at Alchemyindex.com. In the first entry from late October, Kensrue revealed the group's plan for recording, which was to do 3/4s of each element and subsequently return later on "and re-evaluate, start mixing, and tie up any loose ends."
