Day spent sleeping too late, checking mail for overdue letter, waiting around Hopedale Mall for a prescription, painting, and creating...MINIATURES! I think they're cute. And useless!! LOL!!
Here's a song by a band called Grizzly Bear that I really enjoy and some photos to pass the time! Thanks for stopping by, have a nice weekend!
My GOOD PAL Amanda was kind enough to share this really swell song with me. It's the epitome of a bloghype-remix, but there's something profoundly addictive about the lead synth that keep me listening to this over and over and OVER LOLZZZZZ. Download and ENJOYYYYYY.
I woke up with a cough, and a bad feeling inside my head so I spent most of the day painting and recording, and just generally trying to feel better. I'm still awake at 2:30 AM, so I'm not really doing myself any favours. Below is a cover of Brian Eno's "Needles in The Camel's Eye", with whom I've been listening to almost too much of; I tried my luck at making a tape cassette loop today, which was sort of a failure, but the result after much perseverance and revision is a simple layered made up of guitar chimes and fake cello. It's sort of charming. Enjoy!
I still don't know how to adapt a proper voice for writing in this blog, because I'm pretty sure no one actually reads it. Anywho, earlier today my good friend Mike Travis came over for a scheduled recording session, which actually went surprisingly well. So, here is a fun little mix of his new original song Black Tie Event. I thought I'd be so bold as to share it here with the big scary interwebs. Check it out and enjoy!
If you happen to be a musician, and a little more into Brian Eno than I anticipated, here's a really neat essay Brian Eno wrote in 1979 on recording, entitled The Studio as a Compositional Tool
This is my inaugural post on what will hopefully take form as the deliciously content-rich Foxes in Fiction blogoramadama. I don't really have anything to talk about or share today, nor have I adopted a comfortable narrative style for writing on said 'blog', so I'm going to keep it short and awkward! Christine just popped her "Pattern Sequence" cherry on the SP-404 samplermachine that still haunts my dreams with it's epic user-manual. Yikes and shit. Here are some generic photos depicting the events of the past few hours, and Christine's brainchild with treatements by yours truely. Growl!
