As time slowly counts down to the October EP, it looks like while Aryn has found some early fall prolificacy, all things are quiet on my front.
Too quiet.
I don’t know what it is, but I have been less than musically productive in the last week or two. Normally I’m always working on something, but recently I haven’t had any firm ideas, and really have barely touched my guitar or piano in that time. Here’s hoping this week will yield some better results.

I feel like I was there too last month.. really from working a ton and then not wanting to do anything on my short relax times.
This month I just decided to spend a short burst of energy (3 days in a row) to see what would come out. I would say try getting something done in a half hour or hour or so, but start with having something halfway done in that period of time.
I tried again this weekend (electric this time) and was modifying the time signatures to use the click track which kept changing the time signatures of the tracks I was recording(speeding up / slowing down) which was annoying.. so i’ll see if I can detangle that mess.
