Well… It’s been awhile since i posted on here… i guess i should keep this thing more updated.. but in all honesty… the 4 of you that read this surely have better things to do?? I kid of course…..
I’ve been keeping myself busy, with a mixture of normal things that most people do…
That said i’ve mostly been focusing on my album, which is coming along quite nicely and is nearing completion. The process has been a very liberating one… the previous album really took allot of work from me, learning what can and cannot be done with a digital only confined setup like mine. That said i seem to have found balance in practicality and quality, and i’m very pleased with the overall production output.
The picture is of my Duduk, which after 2 months now of playing it, i really love… There are two pieces on the album that feature the instrument, and i have to say that it fits perfectly with what i do. I only hope i can keep advancing on the instrument and compose music which is worthy of it’s beauty…
On the personal front, i’ve been having health issues, mostly with my right hand wrist & arm/shoulder. I’ve had problems with them in the past (due to an RSI related injury), but this time it’s actually abit worse. It’s a mixture of things that caused it, mostly using too much of my netbook i think for online activities & working out too much and generally overdoing it… It’s gotten better but it’s definitely affected my guitar playing.. something which i hope will not be permanent, and am thankful that it came towards the end of the tracking for my new album…
Health wise i’ve definately noticed some things not right, not sure whether it’s a nutrition thing, or something else, but my nerves and overall wellbeing are not where they should be… That said that usually happens to me around summertime anyways, so i’ll see how that goes.
On a brighter note my friends Rami & Raquy will be hitting Cairo again, Rami should be here next week, and Raquy around the middle of August, so it’ll be good to chill with them again and change the pace of things.
Well, i post again soon, with some more info and some snippets of the new album.
Bugger Off.
