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.

I decided to include next week's track into this one... I was planning to expand this one out, but I like the length, and as that didn't get me the 'longer than 1 minute' rule, I decided to finish both weeks. If you've been listening along, you'll also notice a sizable difference in the volume and 'mastering'. I finally got a new outboard stereo buss compressor so ran the track through my new outboard mastering chain. Once I finish all the weeks, I'll have to go back and do the mix and master of all of them again.
