As of Saturday (30th) i'm off work for a week, 10 days to be more precise.
Tomorrow (28th) Louise goes to London for two weeks to show her portfolio to some galleries to try and get a show. Saturday night (30th) is my band's clubnight link , at which i'll be getting very wrecked. Sunday (1st) i'll have to take the gear back to the studio. The following Friday (5th) I'll head to London to pick up Lou, drive to brighton and spend the weekend there, driving home on monday (9th) to start work on Tuesday (10th).
--> This means that between Sunday (1st) and Friday (5th) I've got nothing to do. Ok, maybe a bit of washing up, possibly a bit of DIY and phoning the electric board etc. But other than that, nothing.
-->I have prepared with great anticipation. Downloaded all the VSTs and VSTIs you lot have recommended, loads of samples (them drum kits etc!), got loads of new music - Earth, Audion, Dabrye, Madlib, King Tubby, Tim Wright, etc, etc. Sorted my computer out - 2 monitors in full working order (YES!), internet connexction up and running, defrigged, unzipped and optimised. Bought an H4, getting the memory card and found a DC adaptor. All i need is some provisions.
My planned activities are as follows:
*Get plenty of drugs, fags and booze and spend some very long sessions writing some tunes.
*Invite lots of my fellow musician / producer friends round to write and record some shit. Then when they have to go home to go to bed cos they've got work in the morning, stay up all night and mix the shite.
*Spend all the time i'm NOT writing music listening to new music, watching films, etc.
*basically become a musical hermit for four days and get some shit nailed.
So has anyone got any ideas?
Should i aim to have something tangible at the end of this stint?
would a target of, say, a completed EP be a good focus?
or should i just let it all flow like a nasty bout of cholera?
Sugestions please. | |

dont plan for an ep....just be pleasently suprised if one happens to appear.
i'd say one good song is reasonable for 4 days work
