the guy from support said it sounded like a hardware problem, and it was likely a matter of replacing the battery
So… I hope to get my (mom’s) laptop back soon
Which is great because I had a great idea for a musical, and I’m going to get to work on it ASAP
My mac broke down, it had all my projects on it
Working on getting it fixed but that’s the reason for the lack of updates
I had just downloaded two demos, (Reason and ReCycle from Propellerhead Studios) for mixing music and creating loops, and then it started going really slow, I was getting a lot of error messages, so I shut it down and then it wouldn’t start back up.
So hopefully they can fix the computer without completely reformatting and I can keep my music. If not… I’ll just cry
No but it should be fine, I called Apple support and the guy said it sounds like an os error not a hardware error, so I can keep most of my files
Three incomplete songs put together make… well… one long incomplete song
Filed under piano incomplete songs make incomplete song long key changes composition progression
I feel like it’s good up until the key change
after that it definitely needs more polishing
It’s no where near done
I plan on switching around some parts in the first half as well
plus I’m still playing with parts at the end
so yeah, this is my song so far
I haven’t worked on it in a while
I think I’m getting the hang of it
You know when you’re a kid and you “rite werds liek zis”
that’s how I feel about writing music right now
I can’t quite get the right rhythm
but if you read it out loud you get the gist of what I’m trying to express
EDIT: P.S. I don’t consider this a finished song
I can totally see Claudia getting into all kinds of shenanigans to that song
my dashboard clearly says “6 followers”
but I went through my followers to see who was following me
and I counted 9
This is good
not the song itself
the fact that I’m writing
I’ve had creative outlets before
but now
I’ve never really felt this way about creating art before
I know it probably seems cliche
I’m just so glad that I’m able to express myself in this new way
it’s the best outlet I’ve found yet

I’ll look back at these and say “Wow, I was proud of that”
