OK, I know my postings on facebook have been minimal, and the newsletter hasn\u2019t been sent in a while, and I\u2019ve cut down on blogging too. This is not because I don\u2019t love you guys. I do! It\u2019s just that I\u2019m really focusing on slowing down just a bit and spending less time online ~ heresy? Oh yeah! I\u2019m just feeling like I\u2019ve over digitized myself lately and I feel a need to spend more time in the analog world.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile several of the most recently mixed tunes have just been mastered, and yeah! They sound really sweet. We\u2019re holding these versions back until the whole album is done. I think it\u2019ll be worth it.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, my new thing is to avoid clocks as much as humanly possible\u2026somehow, I find more time for songwriting and all that studio work when I just stop looking at the clock.<\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t work so well for performances, though, LOL. <\/p>\n
My other new thing is to mellow out on the multitasking. Again, too much stuff happening, and it winds up being like there\u2019s three songs being written at once, three more being mixed, another couple with overdubs ~ and nothing actually done! So, for the time being, it\u2019s all about focus, vision, and being present in the moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
