Friday Playday
by Tom Anthony on Oct.02, 2008, under Music
I really wanted to record something new tonight, but the little black box which connects the keyboard to laptop has an unacceptable hum. Drat.
Well, actually I got lucky. Moving some files around I noticed a set of three tracks which I had not produced yet called Friday Playday. I originally recorded these tracks on March 18, 2007. Sounds impossibly long ago against the backdrop of my current “new” life.
I call this a track and not a song because as I poke around inside my existing recordings I notice that I have played a lot of very different variations on surprisingly few themes. In other words I hear the same melodies and counter melodies across many recordings, but they seem pretty different because of the musical arrangement. This is upbeat, all me – playing across three or four different tracks, and (I hope for your sake) not completely unpleasant.
