Today is over, but I felt like musically I created quite a bit… Winterlore (my black metal band) is well into our 4th album and the 3rd is nearly done in production… and shit
life is good networked with some of you awesome IDMfers today too
If I didn’t have my wife around to do all of the proper shit, I’d never have a regular living room. It would be like “studio 1” “studio 2”, and oh this? Studio 3 has a toilet and a shower
Ended up getting a bundle of books about music and sound, and I was worried that it would just sit around unused. However, after getting a bit through one of them it’s been super interesting and I’m excited to read some of the others, too.
Most of my worry was that I’ve wanted to read This is Your Brain on Music for a long time and I see it sitting there on my shelf and every time I just point at it and think, “Yeah, someday.”
Haha, amen brother. I’m such a dry, pasty ass lol.
In other news, it feels fucking glorious to have sold out. Like I fucking love you guys and the music you make. But I found great relief in going to back to what I loved originally about electronic music. Just those incessant club beats. The first albums I loved were Sasha and Digweed “Northern Exposure” (mix album), Fat Boy Slim “We’ve Come A Long Way, Baby”, The Chemical Brothers “Dig Your Own Hole” and more so “Surrender”, Astral Projection, Moby (when he still made techno), Rabbit in the Moon. All that good 90’s four to the floor shit.
I just want to make party music that is basically beats, bass and fun samples. I just wanna make dem booties shake.
