I took an enforced break.
Nothing too serious, but it did make some things a bit tricky and give me a lot of time for thought, albeit not entirely coherant.
- My go to thing when I feel bad is to share music, give it away, try to help other people feel good because that makes me feel good. So how do I do more of that?
- I've been thinking if Strange Textures is the right name for the next phase of stuff. After lots of back and forth I've come to the conclusion that I don't care about the name. So why not keep it?
- I had to cancel the recording at the Chapel that I'd got planned, and I was quite annoyed about that. Should be easy to rearrange but it feels like I need to commit to it more than just a one off. What does this mean and is it connected to point1?
- I really don't like having material unpublished. I've deliberately slowed down Hiperad and Orbits and I feel it like a weight I'm carrying around. I want to be more spontaneous, which the original podcast did. How do I get back there without annoying everybody with volumes of music?
So some good questions to answer. Plus I have some simplistic ideas about answering. It might take a while to get going after the enforced rest, but I can see what comes next…
