Endless Blue

Studio conditions: less than ideal. But the weekly beats must flow.

I did it. Mandolin in a trip hop song baybeee! Also, too, I did a #weeklybeat finally. https://soundcloud.com/endlessblueband/weekly-beats-30-please-clap

Catching Uncle Tims play literally the most Southern California show ever at the beach in Encinitas

So this happened

Recorded something today. Please clap.

The Justin Bieber redemption arc makes me happy. Seeing someone escape their past and become just the purity of their obviously immense talent is really inspiring. Good for him 💙

A clean workbench is salve for the soul 😌

Had no idea what this was, and damn if it didn’t blow my doors off. Jimmy Rodgers vibed blues/folk/vaudeville/Tin Pan Alley music, recorded in 1975 but really from anytime. So good! #vinyl #nowplaying

I 💙 pick foam

The key to getting your space unfucked is to allow a little bit of puttering to keep your sanity. I used my drill press (yes I have one shut up) to drill a hole in free spinning stand end, then drove a nail through it to fix it. Neat!

First really real day back in the studio and it is a total disaster shitshow. I may be forced to bar teenagers from my space. ID check at the door.

Finally got around to updating the 'ole faircamp site. So go listen to some music or something. https://futurecabaret.com/

Lost steam to do Weekly Beats for a the time being. I feel like it was diminishing returns - not really growing anymore, just going through the motions. Much more to be had from learning new techniques and instruments

I swear I start every delta blues YouTube lesson like a good boy, following along and playing with the teacher. This lasts about 60 seconds before I stop listening and turn into a wanna be Robert Johnson, riffin’ like a mofo

Reporting the AI slop added to our profile on the streaming services is my favorite 😐

Good to have an extended reset, and I feel lucky to be able to have one. Not sure what happens with music on the other side. But making sure to do the things I need is clarifying.

Some rapid fire truth bombs up in here. Good stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9GSqPfD_A0
