fuuuuck...i have a gig upcoming this wednesday and I've had this evening just for myself and making music. no duties, no things to do, just music.
and as the hours pass by, i feel totally blocked and i'm coming up with NOTHING worth saving and using. damn. |

-- second mock exam for cambridge's certificate in advanced english tonight... it's the writing part (we got five parts: reading, writing, use of english, listening, speaking ; the reading was easy), i hope it'll turn out well. The real exam is on next saturday... |
I am a little bit sick at the moment. and I have to do some theory work to do, which fits nice. staying at home/bed writing boring stuff and listening to music. hope I will got some time soon to record some stuff again, missing that.
and I am thinking about buying a suit for about 100$. which is pretty cheap cause it fits perfectly and I am sure there will be a day where I will need one again (btw and I love suits) |
bought two fish this morning and i feel pathetic. my days are so empty i need them to stare at.

write a song about it.
|

i'll have to record a whole conceptual album bout that. |
|
just received my copy of robert logan's inscape (by the way nicfit thanks for recommending it to me a while ago!). i won it in a ebay auction, brand new, for 5€ instead of 27 on amazon... i'm super happy.
have a good day everyone! |
22 bands playing dour festival have been unveiled (200 will play in total). it looks like it's gonna be crazy... they always get fantastic line ups (here was the 2009's one: http://www.dourfestival.be/fr/history/ ). i'll definitely be there.
here are the first 22 unveiled bands/artists: A-Trak Atari Teenage Riot Black Sun Empire Brodinski Caliban Carl Craig Chris Cunningham Chromeo Clues Crown City Rockers De La Soul DJ Marky & Stamina MC Dub Pistols Emalkay Gwar Inna de Yard All Stars: Earl Chinna Smith, Cedric Congo Mython, Kiddus I, Matthew McAnuff, Derajah Les Blérots de R.A.V.E.L. Peter Pan Speedrock The Sonics The Very Best Third World Wax Tailor Some more bands that are 99% sure to play: Simian Mobile Disco, lefto, danakil. Looking forward to see the whole line up, but it was a shock seeing Atari Teenage Riot. |
atari teenage riot and de la soul. I hope they wont play at different stages at the same time, hrhr
|
ahah yeah! these are two i'm definitely looking forward to. chris cunningham also.
new band added today: ghinzu. i didn't know they were even still doing anything :D |
I thought they retired long before too.
btw whats cunningham doing? VJ stuff? what do I have to imagie? |
apparently he's doing DJ + VJ, with three giant screens. Looks like it will be huge...
|

bloody bloody hell i've bought myself a novation launchpad and korg nanokontrol yesterday and it's so fucking rad.

okay, now let us hear what you've created with these babies.
|
i'll sure let you hear that when i'll have some proper tracks written. As I've just began using Ableton Live I am yet to master it completely, but I have some rough drafts getting written. I'm trying to do something that sounds quite aquatic, and quite noisy/ambient. I'll see and let you hear how it turns out for sure! It might be quite slow though as I do not have a lot of time for myself because of school. I've got 100 pages of history to learn before monday (obviously we haven't seen them in class...), and then a philosophy oral to prepare, 20 minutes to talk on "Illusion & error", on wednesday. Great.
|
how can you define "sounding aquatic"?
|
ahah, i don't know. it's just something i have in my head... like, harmony in blue ii by tim hecker certainly sounds aquatic to me, if that makes sense. Or, in another style, Bad Science by Rustie... There's something about the sounds, I can't say exactly what, that makes it feel like it's played underwater or something.
It wouldn't sound like Tim Hecker though since there's beats in what I do but you get the idea |
