Fearless

January 22nd, 2010

Corin said to me last night that there are some people who will never appreciate great art, because they’re not secure enough to expose themselves. “They would be forced to rewrite their souls,” he said. I think the same is true of artists. The artists we love are fearless, which doesn’t mean “without fear.” It just means they go on anyway.

Whoa, Upgrade

January 21st, 2010

After YEARS, I have updated my Wordpress to the latest and greatest.

No time to meddle with it, though. Back to barebones for now!

There’s a version 2 of the Monome Community Remix Project, and I participated again. Spent less time here, but it feels better for me because I tend to over-arrange songs the longer I work on them. It’s a nice little song, I’d like to call it.

As per “tradition”, I opted to do a live version. Another reason is this precious little new Monome 64 Grayscale Edition that I am utterly in love with. See!

So I’m producing a lot more music lately, or at least a lot more than how I used to do it. Electronic music is an experimenter’s dream; it has no rigid set of rules. As a result, making music becomes much easier for me.

More music coming up!
