Compunction Junction

I write music...

did you know that?

Cause I do.  I have sorta gave up on trying to convince people to listen to my listen.  And I was never exactly sure why...until I got an online review.

I've realized my music is not easily accessible.  This dude was pretty adment about the fact that the song was weak because "it was short" and there was "no chorus, breaks, or hook".  Got me thinkin:: Yeah.  I've also realized that kinda thing does NOT work well when it's only one person playing.  When you've got a full band doing those things, you can throw in solos, and breaks and everything would sound more full and sensible: solos can act as breaks...get a solo instrument to make a hook".

I recorded my music in a studio here in Busan South Korea with a feller named Duk Ju.  A well intentioned lad but I should have stopped soon after I started.  I've ended up with something but not much.  It's mixed subpar...the performances are subpar...the space was WELL along subpar (no soundproofing and a window that openned above a busy street.  As I see it, it sorta works as a demo but that's about it.  But nuff *****in about that.

On Tuesday this week, I had what would best be described as a lyrical purge.  I haven't written a song here (with lyrics) in about 10 months..and THAT one was ****e.  On Tuesday, I finished off three songs; creating choruses, bridges and the like.  One song is a very simple country ditty except with no chorus or hook.  The song is basically 3 different verses together telling a silly country song.  Perfect Remcoe song.

The second one, that i'd completely forgotten about for a month.  I finished off two more verses and a good chorus. 

Blam.

Speakin of that: My buddies in Vancouver are most all musicians as well.  Cam Latimer, Ridley Bent, Aaron Grant.  Oh crap.  I just realized something TERRIBLE!  The set of them were involved in a website called "Tractorgrease.com".  Sadly, (I JUST find out now) it has become defunct.  Damn.  Well, to anyone who would be interested, you can go to www.myspace.com and search for those three fellas in the music section.  It is well, well worth the time.

If you rock your socks off, you may as well change your underwear too!
