I have to say, I’m really enjoying finalizing these older ideas. Not only am I tying up loose projects, having a head start on a piece has given me back some time to focus on other aspects of music making. Melody made on the Octatrack, everything else made on Koala, recorded through the SP404mkII into Logic.

I don't know if I'm just really tired, but it was very hard to write a song this week. It feels like I've hit 30kms in a marathon. But next week is a new week.

If I had words

I’d write a thousand songs

I would have just begun

To tell of your mercies

If I could sing

Until my voice gives out

I’d make the rocks cry out

To finish the story

Your love endures forever

Your mercy’s never-failing

If I could fill the heavens

I’d let the sky resound with praise

If I was bought

Bought with your precious blood

My voice belongs to God

All for his praises

A life reborn

A song that is never done

Your love goes on and on

New every morning

i mean I didn't really forget but I forgot where the week went. I'm happy to have completed some projects that have been on my back burner for a large number of years, and it feels good to finally have them complete

so it is a little Weekly Beats milestone for me this week!

Yup, week 22, but this is my 200th track submitted! What a wild number. It's not 200 tracks with artwork as I was taking 2024 lightly, but hey, we can celebrate that another time, right?

So, weirdly, once I worked that out, this track just became a weird weight of thoughts and errors. It very nearly got rebooted when I noted it was always tanking my cpu becasue the bitrate was set too high. Some guitars have overload clicks, the mix was messy, I randomly got into a chord progression in the bridge that moved the rest of the track into a very slightly different key.

But, we persist, thats what we do. I also thought I'd give the 'Jimmy Eat World - Lucky Denver Mint' ending, becasue why not, it's my track, I'll put delay on drums if I want.

So yeah. A weird ol' week. and life isn't getting any less busy right now, so here's to everyone keeping on truckin'.

I didn't have a lot of time this week. Busy at work and at home. I also didn't get to listen to and comment on that much.

This is a bit more of the same compared to what I did the last couple of weeks. Piping midi from Tidal Cycles into Ableton Live, where I had lots of VSTs running.

I think it came out okay. Nothing spectacular.

More busy weeks coming up...

Made on the M8 & T-8 (through the J Rockett R her pedal)

'Borrowed' some M8 preset instruments from Trash80's Datafall bundle... Hence the song title.

Added a bit of Casio VL1 ... Well, why not
