true dedication.

you know how i know that i’m truly dedicated to my music? i’m skipping what will undoubtedly be the funnest show ever in order to finish up mixing. i already missed them play here last year, and i have to miss them again. THAT IS TRUE DEDICATION, PEOPLE.

nevermind that i’m seeing them tomorrow night at the music hall of williamsburg; i was 1000% psyched to see them play at a bowling alley.

i mean, who wouldn’t be.

Familiar Hymns - Troupe Song

[i shouldn’t post this because it’ll defeat the element of surprise, but i’m too excited!!!]

a good day.

three songs DONE (and i mean ready-to-be-mastered done), thanks to a crazy mixing session yesterday with this genius. still in mild panic mode, but feeling better now that a third of the album is master-ready.

more mixing madness in a few days.

gimme an M! gimme an O! gimme a T! gimme an I - oh, screw this.

you know what is the best motivational tool? a deadline. seriously, shit would never get done otherwise.

just checked my calendar, and it looks like mine is in two weeks, if i want my CD to be done before i head to school. WHAATT??!?!!?!?

let's be a little more productive tomorrow, yes?

things to do:

  • go to the DMV and re-take my driver’s license photo
  • book my flight to St. Louis
  • clean up the drum tracks for “Do You Recall”
  • research what kind of Mac i need to get for school
  • organize clothes to drop off at Buffalo Exchange
  • put in an hour of Wii Fit (seriously this game rules)

things not to do:

  • watch the entire third season of Arrested Development while eating leftover BBQ from July 4th
who knew that a Google search for an image capturing my mood about my last day would also solve the issue of how to design my album?

shifting priorities.

i’m pretty pumped that it’s my last week of work, after which i’ll be doing a whole lot of nothing before being so busy i won’t know what hit me heading off to grad school. i’m particularly excited because i’ll soon have an extra 11 hours a day to do whatever i want to do, a big chunk of which will be music-making. also, sleeping.

wow. i didn’t realize just how much of my time is spent at work (commute, lunch break included). is that sort of depressing?

What I love about songwriting is that there is no guaranteed formula for success. I’m hoping that getting better at making records means, for one thing, that I am learning how to leave room for serendipitous moments. I always want to hear how things didn’t go according to plan. if he had a tumblog, i’d so follow it.
