Music takes time doesn't it.
Thu 05 Jul 2007
I'm listening to Four Tet (great stuff) and coming to a realisation.
I don't think I find it particularly difficult to come up with the elements of music. Those elements don't even have to be amazingly perfect to satisfy me (although I do have very high production standards, it has to be said). However, what I am lacking is the time to come up with, and knit together, these elements in sufficient volume.
Actually - that's not even true - I have TONS of stuff since doing the Installations! I just haven't found time to put it all together. I got all excited about my 'Every Day I Do Things Wrong' project, but I haven't found the time to edit everything together. I have all sorts of other bits and pieces that I want to polish up and deliver too.
I get lonely though. Sat there in my flat on my own 'producing'. Why can't it be more like an office where there are always people to talk to? And testers to report when I'm being a bit sloppy? And project managers to make sure I'm on schedule? Hm... would I like that? I dunno - I might!
