Lost In My Mind

By Tone Matrix on June 19, 2016 7:55 pm

There's no way around this.  Depression is a !@#^%er and benzos even worse.  Without ranting too much, I've had trouble concentrating on anything because of some personal issues.  The routine I was in earlier this year is just not present.  I'm hoping I will at least be able to push through this and eventually make some music that feels right.  I apologize to those that have been listening to my brain turn to mush the past few weeks.  Your comments are always appreciated.  I will catch up at some point, I promise.  Thanks for listening to my music and my rants. 
Oh I should probably talk about the track, but yesterday I was able to take part in my first drum circle.  It was pretty cool and so I wanted to try and take part of that feel and use it for this track.  I def would like a djembe of my own someday.  It's way more therapeutic than I realized.  Thanks again smile

Sorry to hear about you not feeling well. Hope you'll feel better soon.
I thoroughly enjoy the music you've been making. This track too has a beautiful atmosphere and perfect balance.
Keep it up!

Hope you overcome what's troubling you right now, Eric. smile

As a long time fan, I could assure you that your musical ideas are far from "mush". Depression is f***ed up, yeah, but although gets tiresome to hear, you'll get out of it like you leave a bad flu behind.

In the meantime, we'll keep listening.

Take good care, mate!!! Peace and don't hesitate on throwing out some beats this way if you feel like you could use some outside perspective.

Speaking about the music, this is wonderful!

and, yeh, depression is a drag, but it's one of the few things that gets to be less of a problem when you're older (speaking from experience).

Thanks guys, I am feeling a bit better than when I wrote my blah description.  June has been a weird month for me and I just had a bit of "episode" one day and almost missed releasing a track because of it.  I am seeking help and such to get around these stupid thoughts and feeling a bit more motivated to work on music. Originally I was feeling like because of the mushed month that I might give up on keeping the streak alive.  But I just need to learn to work on something and take it for what it is and move on.  So i appreciate all the kind words and such.  It def is nice to see smile  Also that gif is on point for how I was at my first drum circle smile
"what do you mean it's over? can't we keep playing!?" Djembe on a push isn't the same as Djembe on a Djembe smile

Excellent stuff!
 
I also suffer depression but benzos are not the right way.
They only confuse you!
Making music is one of our best medicine against depression smile

Exactly! You couldn't have said it any better!  I've at least come to realize I will always have music to work on no matter the situation smile
HIGH FIVE tongue

Hope that you get through your troubles soon.

Great track!
