making music is hard! i’ve literally got several hours worth of recorded music from days of old that i could compile into a piece such as this, but i want to do something special and new. the pressure of “delivering” something interesting has kind of given me writer’s block, so i’m enlisting some help. i’ve invited a few friends to join me in some improvisation. the idea is just to get together, have a good time and edit it down. hopefully we can make it work. there’s plenty of contingency planning going on as well…

i did a little work on my piece the other night. it involved recording the audio from “joe millionaire” with my iBook microphone, processing it, and playing acoustic guitar over it. i then added a changing drum machine beat over it. the results were really bad.

hello all. i just received a friendly note from josh reminding me that it’s my turn to kick some muted tones. i’m glad he contacted me now. every few weeks i remember about my involvement in the project, but i hadn’t thought of it lately.
as for the nature of my project, i’ve decided to create my piece entirely with my ibook. i will use some instruments, of course, but as far as the recording, processing and mixing, i’ll only use the built-in ibook microphone and some software.
i had thought about copping out and using some old recordings of songs of mine, but that would be lame. so i’ll do this. we’ll see how it goes…
thanks for reading!
