I really really want to listen to music. Just thought I'd let you know. Music is everywhere I turn, and I have to turn back. It's so quiet. The second day I was driving and I was behind a motorcycle and I was kind of enjoying the wierd sound it was making, something I don't usually focus on. And I thought that this week might be like that, noticing the sounds I usually ignore. But really, there are those sounds, and they mostly annoy me. Cars driving by, the wind blowing through trees, squirrels chattering, and my computer's fan whirring. I've had enough of them, really. I wonder what Morris would be like, because it's even quieter there. So I guess I'm glad I have some noise, but it's all so lame. Give me nature sounds, a frog or a duck, something unusual like a helicopter or a cat meowing.
But I guess as far as writing goes, I'm more productive. I gave up on classifing the music I'm writing, it's just music, just songs. I want to write more punk, but I also want to get away from short AABBCCDD rhyming that I usually end up doing. So I try and write longer lines and catchier choruses. The last song fit that pretty well. I also don't revise the songs too much, just kinda leave them as they are. As guitar tunes go, not much happening there. Drums are getting better, but I couldn't hold anyone's attention long enough to call anything a song, not even mine. I have one basic idea in my head that I feel I kinda touched in last night's song, but want to focus a little more on. Doing what ever you want.
Anyways, I'm off to jam some drums before doomtree show tonight. I want to write some killer bass riffs for some hip hop, that'd kick ass.
