I've been away from this blog for a while, to catch you up (whoever you are) I've been commissioned to do a three part experimental electronic composition based on The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. the commission gives me a salary and studio space until the project is completed. As of this writing I'm in the process of moving my studio gear into my new workspace and trying to puzzle out how to start. I'm hesitent to talk in great detail about this because it's so early on I don't want to get anyone's hopes up needlessly and I don't want to speculate. In my life I've a tendency to overreach and plan things far too well in advance. I'll hopefully keep you updated on this as it develops.
In synth related news my modular has grown! I've expanded it with an MFB Kraftzwerg (which aparently means "Mighty Midget" in German and a Doepfer Mini-case that's got a chaos generator and a module which turns TV's into Oscilloscopes! I'm waiting on a ring modulator to fill up the gap in my case and then I'll be saving for (dun dun dun) the big updrade.
Also picked up a really nice electric guitar and some much needed cables. I'm still footageless but I've got to get into PR overdrive soon because of the last CD. I'll be picking up a copy with the tracks separated out on it in the coming week and have no legitimate excuse for not geting a myspace page for my music. I don't expect it will have anything other than the essentials for self promotion. I have a very deep aversion for social networking software which I will save for another post.
to break it all down for you I'm really excited!
