I know I wasn't very positive in the last posts
- too much work to do, not enough fun and relaxin' moments blah blah blah.
now I feel *good* not *great* but good, c'est deja pas mal :)
I don't have much to say about my last week
except that I am planning to REST after next week !
I need to sleep more, it's a matter of health now !
oh, and I don't have a mobile phone anymore (and no time to buy another one).
About the next week, Tuesday is a CRAZY day with work,
then my BIG mid year exam in japanese
(it's going to be BAD !) and after that...
the show at Le Nouveau Casino with Toog Momus
and Montag (I am supposed to DJ sometime during the night).
I am finishing now a mix cd called 'Eye sea symbols' to be sold at the event,
I was asked to do something around the theme of symbolism, so I took Wagner as an inspiration
(well, not THAT much, but anyway...). I started working on that at the end of december after i finished my attempt at remixing Cornelius, and I wanted to do 7/8 tracks around Wagner sounds... as usual I am super unhappy about my own music and work, so there is only one Digiki track on the cd in the end ! (OK, maybe two we'll see). The other tracks ? trash !
I have been working on a 'Digiki' collection of songs (call it an album if you dare) since maybe...1999 or 2000, I can't remember, but I have no idea if I will manage to finish something one day !!
This year I want to work on more remixes of course, because that's something (reworking and recontextualizing) that I love to do.
I am supposed to send a song (not a remix this time) to Spank Happy (great, VERY impressive japanese pop band) but I am still working on it. I want to keep a balance between experimentation and pure pop, and that's not something easy to do !! I want to try to surprise Kikuchi-san (one of the most respected jazz musician in Japan with his band Date Course Pentagon Royal Garden and leader of Spank Happy), and it has to sound good because the album is produced by Yasuharu KONISHI and 'Tomo' TANAKA of FPM !!!
enough hype, back to work !
