So.. I'm starting to feel the limits of my not-a-gig structure. With no preparation, all my composition efforts start to be constrained in a mildly unsatisfying, undeveloping, uncontrasting, tunnelled way. I knew this would be the case. I think I can still get away with doing what I'm doing, but there is a strong case for preparing a few bits and pieces of tracks, just to make sure that it's not too tricky to get started. I'm always conscious that whatever I do to begin with will be construed as my 'style', and then people will leave thinking they know what I'm about, and then it'll all change.

That said, last night certainly yielded a few very satisfactory compositions. A friend has started hassling me about the stagnation of my mp3 feed. It is true, I have not updated for a while....



So I think I will start a consolidation phase. Get these sketches turned into tracks. I may have to enlist some help for this process as I am extremely bad at working when I'm in my flat on my own.
