Robot Cousin Soundworks

Site update 50% done. Actually, all I really did was change the background image (still not happy with it, but perhaps I’ll change it yet) and the header image. Anyway, at least it’s all blue now. Might work out the grey on the page as well.

In music-news, work began on my RPM album last night. I put down the basics of the first track. I know it’s going to be the first track because it’s precisely how I want to open the whole thing. A sonic kick in the face to let you know “You’re Here Now.” Hmm.. maybe I’ll call it that.

Work continues on the musical. Getting a really good, gradiose chord progression, but I won’t say yet what it is. It’s got to be something that sounds grand, something that causes people to immediately take notice. It also has to kick you in the face, sonically.

So much violence, next to no silence.

With the RPM album (that’s already got a title!), I’m finding it a bit tought to make music for myself. Does it sound good to me? Does it really, really matter this time? Sort of yes to both. All I know is, good or bad, I’m going to release this by March 1st. Well, I’ll be putting it online for my site probably the same time it goes up on rpmchallenge.com, so you can decide where you want to listen to it (or if you want to listen to it at all).

I wish I had more to add, but I don’t.
