The comment system is down until the weekend, not that anyone gives a shit. So save it until then…if you can’t then it wasn’t all that damned important anyway..;)

Finishing up a new track called “Mirror”. Aside from some little things here and there it’s basically complete. It does incorporate some things I have not done before so it remains to be seen if it’s actually “good”. I may bring a rough copy to the Den for the hell of it….I dunno…does it really matter? I also have lyrics written for another new track called “You Wander”. The music is sitting nicely in my head until I can get it sequenced. Perhaps this weekend. It promises to be something slightly different as well. I also have some bits and pieces circling my brain. So I’m in writing mode despite my general disposition regarding “other” things in life. We’ll see how long it lasts. So far lyrically I’ve raised the bar a bit. Well at least to me. I’ve always had complicated stuff running around my brain, but I thought at one time a simpler approach would serve this music better. Again I think to fucking much. It’s always better to just “let it be”. Must try to remember that. Second guessing what “you” will like will simply turn to shit…no offence….beside I wonder if “you” even exist at times.

Interesting at least to me, I had intended on speeding up new material a bit as far as BPM’s or shall we say “thump factor”. In other words towards a more EBM style. So far I have slower, although quite danceable beats coming out of my head. I always loved the “half – time” feel to songs in AlternativeRock music. A good example would be Linkin Park or Tool. The drums are playing a half – time beat under faster melodies. Hard to explain if you don’t know, but I dig that “feel”. At any rate if it comes naturally then it’s better, so I’ll let “what I feel” dictate the beats. Beside EBM is SO overdone in a bad way. Some stands out as different, but it suffers from the same thing Techno did. Monotony.

It has occurred to me I am the only one writing….that I know of. Frankly I have no clue what the hell Jeff is doing or wants to do. Sasha is so damn hard to nail down, it’s better if I bring her in at a later stage. Will Z has inquired, but I’ve been so back and forth in my moods lately that it may be best I continue to lock myself away. I don’t know. All I know is I’m writing…tomorrow that may change.

Later…
