Increment Twenty One

By increment on May 22, 2024 11:44 am

This year, I am taking an Agile approach, working on breaking down one long continuous composition or album into 1-3-minute delivery chunks, ideas, and motifs flowing from one track to the next. I am drafting future ideas several weeks in advance, refining the next release or two, and finishing one track every week.

Bit of a short week, I am away for a few days, so needed to get my next increment in early. My composition skills have become more refined this year, I'm getting more comfortable with the interplay between parts, mixing influences with a bit more ease. I've laid down ideas for the next 5 or six weeks and have an idea of where I am heading overall now... I expect that the project will come to a natural conclusion somewhere in the early 30s, unless I decide to include an epilogue.

really love the sound design on this one!

For your process, do you draft more than one new idea a week then decide which one from the pile to finish?
I only end up with a backlog if I give up on completing something and need to come up with something before time is up. But sometimes the backlog finds new inspiration.
