Posting to-

remind myself that i’m a lazy fuck. No, really, the delays of the album have been unfortunate, injuries and lack of practice are among some things, equipment failiure, and as of the now, i can’t find my XLR-XLR Cable, it’s been missing since i got my new computer, i remember testing it shortly after arival with vocals, delays and reverb and whatnot. It was fun, but i misplaced the cable i think, and now i can’t find it AT ALL. Weird, since my room is clean, so it shouldn’t have many hiding spots..

Regardless; Biggest issue i guess, is that the song that we’re recording now, “Rejoice of Winter”, is a song that i don’t actually know by heart, or well i do, but i can’t play it. “Why?”, you ask. Answer is a simple one, and a complex one, in a way.

You see, when i write music, i don’t always do it the traditional way, i use any means necessary to get my ideas out of my head. My music, isn’t a collection of the riffs and scales that i know on the guitar, quite the controary. I often write music, that i have never even played anything close to, on the guitar. Such being the case at hand. I just can’t play it that way, yet. Its possible, no doubt in my mind, but its several new chords for me, in a row, so switching from one to another flawlessly, is proving to be more of a challenge than i originally anticipated.. Much to the irritation of poor t0(bassist, ofcourse), which have already recorded bass and, arranged synths, drums, and whatnot.. I’m practicing it as often as i can, and i’m improving, but i don’t want to half-ass this album. I half-assed the first version of Light(yes, there will be a new version, im not satisfied), and its been gnawing my mind in and out, all the time..

Regardless, things ARE happening, just not at the rate which you’d suspect..

This album WILL be done, ofcourse, and it will be the first, in many many albums..

Take care, all of the 0 people who read this blog.
