      <title>week off</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/thedry/posts/text/754956</link>
      <description><![CDATA[i'm having a week off at the moment, before i go to my new day job on monday.
i'm at one of those places in the creative process, that i don't feel particularly excited about the music i'm composing. 
i'll keep trying new things though, not pushing anything, but still trying

it's hard to know what to do next. i've got some interesting electronic/soundscape sounds going on, but i've also got some noise/ambient/rock/etc ideas too. 
i'm not sure how to reconcile those two completely different ideas, maybe i don't have to. who knows...

      <title>progress update</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/thedry/posts/text/735033</link>
      <description><![CDATA[hey, here's a progress update:
so far i've been working on 2 very different ideas.

the first could be classed as 'electro-acoustic', where i took a tape recording of an arrangement i made for my high school music class, and mixed it up.

the other, simple acoustic guitar / voice music i've been writing (probably more along the acoustic/alt/pop lines)

they're 2 very different album ideas, and i'll be releasing both at some stage in the near future. whether or not they are separate releases or just a single release, i havn't decided.]]></description>

      <title>more tapes</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/thedry/posts/text/717143</link>
      <description><![CDATA[so far, i've got a recording of an arrangment for piano, cello and violin i composed in highschool.
i also have about 10 minutes of radio cancelations (on a snow day).
it'll be interesting to see what happens when i combine snippets of the arrangement with cancelation sound bytes.]]></description>

      <title>tapes</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/thedry/posts/text/704739</link>
      <description><![CDATA[i've started researching cassettes. pulling out my old tapes, listening to them, seeing if there's any recorded material i can use for music.
i've also started composing some simple music for acoustic guitar and voice. maybe i can combine the two? who knows. that's why it's research.
