Month: June 2020

1. Piece of gear (Dreadbox Utopia in this case, the orange thing)
2. List of things it can do musically (additional things will be discovered in the course of #3 below)
3. Patch up something from the list and start messing around until a piece emerges

If history is any guide, spontaneously discovered sounds will add between half again as many and double the patches on the initial list.

I haven’t started this record yet, and I’m in no rush to. Plenty going on, and I’m trying to decide if this is a collaboration or a solo jawn. It’ll be waiting for me when I’m ready.

A few weeks ago JT Hills reached out and asked us to record a stay-at-home version of “Blues or Astroblue” for Pride. We threw in “When Breathing” for good measure. They’re featured in the United Church of Big Rapids worship service this morning, embedded below, with stand-alone videos to follow.
