Weekend Update
There’s almost nothing to report this week. Had family in town, so not much of anything got done, and that’s fine once in awhile, right? Right?
A few fun things:
My wife bought me a record player, and now I’m heading down the deep, dark path that is vinyl collecting. First two albums were a record store find of the Carter family, and a special order from Target (big box stores sell vinyl, what?) of Bleacher’s “Gone Now” album, which might be one of the most imperfectly perfect pop albums of the 2010’s.
I don’t do well with not working. I get nervous, antsy, and end up feeling pent up at the end of every day. Not sure why, going to have to unpack that at a later date when I’m not so busy. Anybody else?
I’ve been experimenting with sampling pianos, and really interested in how it’s possible to get something really usable from an instrument with a cheap mic. More to come on that later.
Have a good week, folks.
