This week’s track is kind of a grubby dub thing, which is certainly not a massive stretch for me stylistically, but process-wise I tried something I haven’t done in a very long time. I played something live, off a ukulele (an ukulele, if you say it Hawaiian), and manipulated what I did live with no take backs. Of course I had a few practice runs, but still. More details on the page.
I’m still slightly ambivalent about the whole WeeklyBeats business, but having fun I guess.
I think from next week I’ll switch to writing up my process over here, and link from WeeklyBeats to this – at the moment I’m effectively doing the opposite, but it doesn’t make too much sense to write these blog posts that otherwise don’t say that much. It makes more sense to me to have these posts sit in the context of the other words I’m writing and other music I’m making.
