this week i kind of just finished something up early so i could try to work on other stuff. i think i had it done in the first 3 days. i can't even really remember what it sounds like, but i remember it was about the mini panic attacks i'd been having lately.

i was hoping to get a good head start on this weeks track, but it's gonna take more time than i thought. i'm really looking forward to getting that one done. the thing that sucks about a song a week deadline is it's making it harder for me to spend time on learning new programs.

i upped mine pretty quick, so i could use the rest of the week to work on the next week's track.

just sent off an email requesting sample clearance!

one permission down, one to go!

if this pans out the way i want, i'll have samples of a couple of slightly famous people in my track

edit: by slightly famous i mean they aren't super famous.

and now i've got full permission to release these samples under CC! although i might spend this week writing the lyrics and working on another song, so i can focus on the music / recording of this track for next week

i'm probably gonna run atari xe wave forms through nitrotracker. probably / maybe. i dunno. i got the name though.

That is a very specific hint. lol

BUT nitrotracker keeps freezing on me when i try to load a sample, so it's not even true anymore.

still using the same name though.

i don't want to get too wrapped up in this, but saying other people joining late will be effecting your personal experience and enjoyment of WB sounds kind of similar to when straight people think that gay marriage will make their marriage less meaningful. it's a personal project, and you should get the same thing out of it, regardless of other peoples' outcome.

and if it's not fair to let people in late, because they won't be doing all 52 tracks, does that mean it's not fair to let someone who was here from the beginning continue with WB if they can't get something done one week?

just sayin.
