October away...
Always good to be up super early on a Sunday?
No?
Oh well...
Last night's wine glass ready to be put away as I fired up the machines...
Working this morning on splitting the 80 minute variation on Brian Eno's "Music For Airports" (which will be released on Friday), into two tracks so that Bandcamp will accept it (because it's more than an hour)....
Had to do the same with the three bonus pieces too - solo choir, solo piano, solo guitarscapes...
So, eight tracks in all...
Cover up first...
...and, an hour or so later, all eight tracks uploaded...
Downloaders will, of course, be able to stick the parts back together again for a gapless listen...
Meanwhile, Luna was exploring...
...and, as is her wont, chewing plastic...
Played the Mahavishnu record again - no wonder the first track junps!
Breakfast at home, followed by some relaxing...
Then, out for the shopping - for us by Anne, for my mum by me...
...and home again to the guest cat...
Hmmm - last week's videos started to work all of a sudden...
There is a debate going on in the band about the merits of this lighting set up...
While we were shopping I was recording the soundtrack of the first video and did the second on our return...
My plan is to blend it with the slightly distorted feed taken from the mixing desk (the red one!)...
However, this is a longer term project than I'd thought as one runs at an ever so slightly different speed from the other - so I need to split all the tracks on each recording first to match them all up with a minimum of mismatching...
Lunch...
..and a couple of "Community"...
Then, creating another DJ mix for the gig on 4 December - as it seems we will be opening the doors 30 minutes earlier than I'd thought...
It features other people's cover versions of tracks from our sets...
To my mum's, where unpictured scones with clotted cream and jam were enjoyed...
Home again to Luna...
She enjoys watching other animals on the TV...
...while I listen to far out jazz fusion from 1971...
Good telly tonight with the return of "Dr Who" - very promising - and a new, also promising, thing, "Showtrial" - which sandwiched a me upstairs doing stuff "Strictly" results show for Annie...
Home made lasagne for tea!
Yum...
Weekend over...
Highlight of the Day : Music work...
