Yeah, so this one has been a bit obvious... I haven't really been active on this site. Too long, didn't read summation is that I live in the UK, and the Online Safety Act has been put into place by the government, meaning that I can't use certain sites, SpaceHey being one of those sites. Anyway, let's talk a little about what I've been doing lately, and also what happened. * I finished college! So... » Continue Reading

Gonna keep this one short (sort of, I guess?) because there hasn't been much of an update. I'm going to be taking a break from these music blogs because I currently have two weeks off from college. Currently, I'm going through the first week off, and I'll be on the second week soon. However, that doesn't mean I will not be active. If anything, I have been active during this time off. I have put to... » Continue Reading

One thing I have realised after becoming a musician is that I never really have any time to myself where I can engage in any recreational activities. One such activity being playing video games, something I used to do a lot as a child and early adolescent, but ended up not doing as much when I started doing music. It's sort of funny; I enjoy video game soundtracks, but it's almost rare for me to a... » Continue Reading

Yesterday, I did a gig. It was fun, getting up on stage. However, it's evident that the band I was part of had different visions for what they wanted the performance to be like. Playing at a venue for the first time in nearly three years was really something. I thought I would have been incredibly nervous. Mainly because the venue would have been filled with people I've seen before, and people I h... » Continue Reading

I technically started today at midnight with a thought; "Is it possible to record a cover of a song in less than an hour with a half-done drum track?" The answer to that thought is; "Yes, it is possible, why did you even ask such a stupid question?". For a bit of context, I was really bored when the day technically started (midnight) and I decided that I wanted to throw together a cover of "London... » Continue Reading

I have a gig in 2 days. Normally, I would be dreading it. However, for some reason, I seem to be feeling completely empty in regards to it. Outside of thinking about that, I have been demoing this one song, very pop rock sounding, with a little bit of alternative influence. I've been listening to a lot of Cheap Trick and a lot of blue album-era Weezer. I don't really have a name for this song. How... » Continue Reading

I'll admit, I didn't really do much today. If anything, I spent most of today's time downstairs with my parents. I told my mom about the job opening at Nintendo of America and she seemed very lax about the idea of me possibly doing something like that in the future. I didn't have much in terms of ideas for today and so, I haven't really been able to put anything down on a track. I spent most of my... » Continue Reading

This is being typed out on a Sunday, which is something I have done in my previous entry. However, I lumped my Sunday entry into the monday entry. I don't know if I'll ever do that again, I only did it last sunday because I never considered Saturday or Sunday to be days that I should be working on this FMP. That said... Looking back at this project, I'm glad I proposed the idea of doing a portfoli... » Continue Reading

Okay so technically, this was written on Sunday March 23rd. However, I deicded that I wanted to lump it in with March 24th. I spent most of Sunday jamming, mainly because I'm currently fresh out of recording ideas and I don't really have the motivation to work on any potential covers. On March 11th, I mentioned that I wouldn't have enough time to record tracks of varying genres. However, as it tur... » Continue Reading

Went into college today so I could rehearse a few more songs with my bandmates for the upcoming gig on April 3rd. The first thing I did today was show my lecturer a near-final version of the song "I Am Death Incarnate". I prefaced that the song was 99% MIDI recording and the only real recording I did was on guitar. He noted that the song sounded really full, really big sounding. I don't know what ... » Continue Reading

I ended up finding a decent Polivoks VST on a website. I neglected the website's name. However, I do remember going on there before and finding a lot of other VSTs that I downloaded in the past. The Polivoks VST that I downloaded is called PolyvoksStation, and I have used it for a track that I have entitled "I Am Death Incarnate", a reference to a difficulty setting in the Wolfenstein games. I had... » Continue Reading
