studio time


went to the studio with my sis Sarah and my dad last night. anyone who knows about studio time knows it's all about the late night sesh (abbreviation for session). we laid down a track for Sarah and i did some backgrounds for her. it felt so good to be back in there, i was comfortable in a way that i can't be anywhere else. it's not the same feeling as being on stage though.



i really love that particular studio, too. it's beautiful and relaxing, which all help me get into the zone. anyway it was good to get something out, make it tangible. i'm always amazed at how you can build up harmonies, hearing your own voice being stacked upon itself to create an entire atmosphere within the song. i've found that attempting to describe music with words to be very difficult; it can mean something different to each person.



last night's sesh has inspired me to write with more of a ferocity so that i can get back in the booth again. i had forgotten the joy i feel after knocking down a track, being able to listen to the rough cut on the way back home, really just riding to the jam. it wasn't even my song (i just did her backgrounds) but i loved it so much. it's a classic song so there's no way not to love it. i'm not sure when it'll be completely done but i'll keep you updated.
