@Olive Fromm - good to hear, my response was mildly ironic 😎

Olive Fromm:

Olive Fromm:
recording:
making a huge mess, cleaning it up, getting too clean, remaking the mess, walking a line.
what is possible, what my head can wrap around, what i am afraid of. comfort zones. tests. friends and enemies.
dwelling way too much on the past. writing a song called the past. el oh el
sometimes a broken record sings the right song twice a day
sometimes a broken mirror looks you in the eye just to say
its time to grab that hard drive youve been living in
theres a war between you and the future and the past is winning
welcome to the past

Olive Fromm:
Today is one of those 'pile on the sounds today / dial them back tomorrow' kinda days.
lately tremolo and gates are my friend. i take a couple of conflicting sounds and apply dueling tremolo or gates set to opposing times. then i walk around outside the room to hear it through the walls (mono) and mix them.
i have like 2 friends who actually listen to anything i make.
moved my meditation location to the stream across the street.
there are purple flowers? what are they? i will use google lens to image search.
true botanist.
voice sounds strained on this song. thinking about trashing the whole project.
out of range. pitch but no tone. rasp. not the good kind. not sure how to own
this. the only thing good about my voice is the hi hats.
