So I came home today with the urge to play some music. I think my neglect over the past month or so has finally caught up to me. I only had an hour before I had to shower up and run out again so I decided to do a quick improvisation with myself and see what I could record and mix in 30 minutes. This track (in all its roughness) literally began from nothing at 6:10 and was rendered from Live at 6:40. All first takes.
Listen here:

Oh and its amazing that I already have a blister on my finger.. oh old times… But I am thinking of trying to do this on a more frequent basis.. to help sharpen my quick songwriting skills and to keep sharp on musical things..
Just to repeat what i said in the email..
i was just going to say how nice it was to hear acoustic bass and real drums. try not to overdo this one w\ a myriad of electronics. curious to see where you go w\ this one. you can always chop up the mellotron melody and repeat it if you need it more locked in. try recording this w\ strurdy attention to metronome next time and itlll be a great rhythm section for a song.
I think this has lots of potential…sometimes you gotta just sit down and force yourself to play when youre not in the habit anymore. good work so far.
It was really nice to just slam something down.. Really helps to break through whatever block I felt like I’ve had preventing me from recording music.
I want to go home and work on something new..
