I've got a feeling
Inspiration for my rig I want to obtain a mac for production purposes. Logic is the best electronic DAW on the market. It feels like the simplicity of the machine creates functionality within the writing and recording process. So! Time to calculate costs and labor.

Big plans floatin’ up the river on a big raft I like how he captured that experience. Bravo. Now bring me more. On another selfish note, I wish I had a picture of the show we played in Kalamazoo… cling cling cling why don’t ‘cha

Just because you swirl square frequencies on a Microkorg. Play an open G2. Put a beat behind it. Doesn’t make you fucking animal collective. Doesn’t make you experimental. It makes noise. Ambient. Simple. Noise. Crap. Fuck your C9sus. Fuck your explosions in the sky rip-off. Fuck my cynicism.

Ambling Alsp sounds like Let’s Pretend We’re Bunny Rabbits by The Magnetic Fields. It’s completely inverted but the melody lines are distinctly similar. Who-HA

Why verify the existence of value through vindicating periods of inactivity? Like my own mind is a product of the people and things around me. Which I’d say is true to a degree. However the observations and awareness generated are by the self and the self alone. What is the self? He, Himself, I. A persona constructed from persistent integrity whose aim is to represent an aspect of...

totally worth gushing over
http://khoral.blogspot.com/ I am one of those people who could sit for hours in a studio twiddling with all the noise makers. Plugging in mixers to pre amps to microphones. Except I am broke. Alas a man can dream with dignity. And surf craigslist.

 ”Metaphors work a lot better when you don’t draw attention to the fact that they’re metaphors. Talking about drugs—and why people do drugs and how they feel about it—just leads you to the same things as talking about relationships and people in love.” “There’s not many things I can think of doing that really have a point to them, there’s just things that I think are worthwhile doing.

Spent the last two days writing recording and reforming. Got two solid sounds. And just finished learning/reassembling another hound. The new spoon record sounds cool. Body Layers is a difficult song to perform. Preferably I’d like to have another person on it.

I think you're too old for me
I like how Wikipedia has the formulas and techniques in which drugs can be made. What the hell will be the state of human ingenuity since the advert of common knowledge and experience to a collective generalization of knowledge which is found by accidentals?

Everyone has a family recipe
I’d like to have children of my own. I would also like to adopt a child from the system. There are too many left behind in the wake of the modern. I will help pay for everything up until the end of college. My hope is that they will then have the ability to understand the I. Regardless I will always be in a place to help them out when possible and there will always be a place in my home...

Between arguing over which band has the best breakdowns or how gay a bro is or how boring a town is or how you need to leave or how you need to do something or how fucking negative everything sounds or how that fucking palindrome coming out of your mouth keeps you where you are.
