Anyways just because I release stuff doesn't mean I ever stop! I think I've made somewhere between 10-13 good beats since Hessler Haus, and I liked the idea of the dozen minute trip so I think I want to make another beat tape with 5-6 beats. I just need to pick and choose which ones to use and then start actually arranging and composing, since right now all my beats consist of either 8/16/32 bar riffs qued up with some vinyl experimentation. It takes an extra level of focus to get myself to stop making new stuff and to work with what I have and spend the time mixing it all. In Ableton Live speak, I spend almost all my time hanging out in session view and I'm always avoiding jumping into arrange view.
Also later this month I'll be driving over to New York to play with Ricky at a festival in upstate NY called Petestock. Looking forward to that, especially since I feel like its been forever since I played live.
and following the mantra "if you can't beat them, join them" since I always felt like it was a passing fad and I have my reservations on the internet making people more and more visible or transparent, I just decided 5 minutes ago to try twitter. Add me friends: http://twitter.com/thewabberjocky
