If you've read all this, heck, you're already one of the biggest fans of this unreleased album. Thank you!

P.S: You won't find any of these updates on mainstream social media. I'm not there anymore and I'm grateful to have company here instead. Thank you for being here!

And that's it, really. Not all these updates will be exciting. Some will be text only. I'll try to keep most of them brief and catchy. But that's not the point of this. The point is to keep me focused on this album for at least a couple hours a day and perhaps to give people a glimpse into how making music at home goes.

Something that was really giving me anxiety about Reaper: I checked sound quality after render and it's real nice.Basically, the exported .wav file that comes out of Reaper sounds identical or near-identical to the original recording when re-inserted into the timeline. I'd previously had an issue with Adobe Audition wherein the exported file would sound quieter. I was never able to fully fix it. Glad to be rid of it.

Today I brushed up on my to-do list for the next few months, started sorting through some notes and... most importantly... ran some tests on Reaper to make sure it's the DAW I want to replace Adobe Audition with (Adobe can go to hell with their subscription model and general awfulness)

Anyway, after a long series of unpredictable events, I'm back to work. Murky Mind is already fully written. The big challenge recently has been setting up the infrastructure for recording it at home and starting a band that will operate on an extremely low budget so that it has good odds of being profitable.

These are great big things to achieve, and that's precisely why they have to be taken one step at a time.
