Music (-- My Improvisations -- Daily Challenge)

[Origins]

From February 1st, I'll be releasing an improvisation every single day where said improvisation reflects a more or less completed song in the time I improvised it. I haven't been doing enough training, etc for a while now so I'm just using the time in between now and Feb 1st for preparation.

In the meantime I want to begin this journal by reminding myself of the dark place I came from over a year ago now with the following (reasonably old now) improvisation I did at around the same time.

I'm very far beyond what the lyrics represent these days so without reflection that arms my awareness therein it can be easy to forget just the sheer range of dark psychological human spaces we can inhabit, such forgetting leads to a lack of empathy, this in part is why I'm simultaneously looking forward to diving deep into my autobiographical journal so that such empathy is less weary of appearance where I remember my roots and in doing so I'm better able to connect with a far greater spectrum of psychological states. 

On that note, memory should arm empathy, but too, imagination empathy. Memory helps us remember the spectrum of possibilities, imagination helps us not only create the experience but also extend and refine that spectrum. This is an experience of consciousness I'll now take a much more active role in mastering for a myriad of purposes inside and outside conscious experiential connection.

Title: Ruthless memories

 

Lyrics:

Stay away

Memories in my mind

Crawling in the backstreets

Pulling me under

You an't got no place to go

Calling my mind

So cold

So cold

Calling in my mind

Broken up in my silence

In your dreams

Walking in my sleepless nights

In the cave of my heart

Dream to be somebody else

Just gonna fly higher In truth

yeah Ill just alternate from now on, do cycles (in general) - for example with a 4 day cycle:

Day 1 - acoustic guitar (improv upload)

Day 2 - piano/keyboard (improv upload)

Day 3 - electric guitar (improv upload)

Day 4 - Ableton experimentation (upload)

This thread just totally got out of hand since my sleep ? deprivation experiment. Haha.

DO NOT DO (although in hindsight the experiment was worth it but it was just one of those non-repeatable ones, like a fat person you take home from the pound to look after, feed and nurse back to physical health. Sounds like a good idea but then you only take home the wisdom after you return them back to the shelter. Put a lock on that fridge of yours!)

So I’ve basically just re-begun it.

I’m still ahead of schedule technically, the improv’s are still up on YT but they’re a reflection of just an eating competition while drunk experiment mostly as opposed to representing the highest quality relative to time constraints and my present level. Some aren’t bad though.

This is a take it or leave it situation at the moment, have fun checking out progress overtime as that’s where the most learning will occur for people. I’ll be sure to create a separate journal for my notes regarding my progress and general insights, 

Now following the listed Day 1 to 4 schedule just above, catching up though in full by this coming Sunday simply because that’s how I roll even though I’m technically still ahead. Just to get my mind set on releasing things that represent quality relative to my present level of development, so making sure I get plenty of rest, warm up and look after my voice, etc. Try and be a little more professional, like a little more than those cheesy ads on YouTube kind of thing, you get the picture. God who needs the reminder about the cheesy ads I sure don’t.

And no not releasing an album like Homer thinks he can run the nuclear plant all by himself by this coming Sunday EST, that’s just simply ridiculous, I’ll be aiming for a “demo album” (for lack of a better way of explaining it) each month.

Otherwise things will likely change and adapt overtime as I’m still figuring out my place here, just hopefully those changes will come from a balanced non-sleep deprived space. Ha.

Thank Samskara for being my life coach on this situation to bring things back into a more balanced motion.

just uploading when I feel like it though. So every few days or so fuck uploading every day when I'll just spend that time focusing on things that give a higher return on investment, when I'm simply killing time ill upload (procrastination time) up to and including all days prior so channel still up to date
