Though I am setting up a donations box later along with my slight website re-vamping, after dinner. I recommend that you don't listen to samples from the "Anima" series as they're extremely dependent on being in the album format. I also think it would be better to wait for the new album to come out; and then if you're interested, you can gladly download the back material. I have to check tonight to see whether all the download links still work and everything. They should.   Sounds cool. Let me know If all goes well, I should be back in a few hours letting everyone know. If you're not here, I'm sure you'll catch the buzz tomorrow. I'll make sure to let you know.

I suppose you could always work chronologically too, to hear the evolution throughout the 3 albums (even though the first 2 are pretty related).

It's up to you, haha. I just think that this album is stronger, personally, even though I'd never change a note of anything I've ever done.

If I didn't think what I was doing now was miles better than what I was doing before, I doubt I'd release it.

If you ever need any advice, let me know. I now finally consider myself pretty familiar with Audacity. Maybe too much, haha. I'd love to hear anything you come up with as well. I'm becoming fairly familiar with it as well thanks to the music class I'm in this semester.  I've actually cheated a bit with this song, the basic bass line and percussion are looped.    I'm starting to develop a bit of a melody to go over it, but it's still in development now.

YOU CHEATER

That sounds cool, haha.

Yeah, it was the easiest way to ensure that I kept the tempo steady the whole way through, since I don't have a metronome or anything with me.

Understandable.

But with prog, you change tempo so much anyway who needs a metronome, amirite?

Hello SR, welcome to the Not Watching the Superbowl Party. Who brought drinks?

And if anyone wants to add me on Goodreads, here I am. I've read more books than that but I can't be bothered to think of all of them and add them.

I'm going to do it just to track what I have read recently. I don't know if some people have the patience to enter every book they've ever read, but I sure don't.

I guess everybody else is watching the Superbowl or some nonsense.
