Right now there's a lot of questioning, learning, discovering, and other elements of change happening in my life. As always, music is a focal point.
I really don't know what's going on with music in my life. It's weird. Gigs are not reliable, nothing is very steady right now. All I know is that when I sit down at a drum set or have a whack on the ol' tapan (no, that's not an euphemism), it feels great. I really enjoy playing music. So what's the problem? Do I really suck that bad? Do other musicians not like me? Do I smell funny?
My homie Don has just moved to New Jerzey [sic], and another good friend may be leaving the damn country soon. (You can't really blame the guy...but come on!) With these two departures hovering around my brain, it's making me think about making some moves of my own.
I've been working on two projects and I think I've bitten off more than I can chew. One is a record of original compositions, the other is a breakbeat record. Most of the stuff has been recorded (with the exception of some overdubs) but the editing, mixing, sequencing, etc., is taking up so much time. Any spare moment I have, I am opening another file and editing music. Unfortunately I don't have any audio to share, but right now at this stage, it at least looks pretty cool:
