So it was, that was “How grate is our god”. 🤣 Yes, it does indeed. 7 in 1 it is then.

I always thought it was mathematically challenged. “The godhead 3 in 1, father, spirit, son, the lion & the lamb”. I’m pretty sure that’s 5 in 1. 😂

FKA Twigs - Eusexua. Just dropped at the start of the week & is a fantastic album from start to finish.

I started a project with a drummer last year. We’re writing a handful of songs & hope to be gigging them this year. We have a vocalist who also plays acoustic guitar, the drummer has an ekit & includes a couple of multi pad controllers, and I play a mix of synth & loops & control the flow of the song arrangements. So after some tweaking & working out what I need to get this going we’ll, I’ve added a Launchpad Pro. Not only can it control much of Logic (which I use as a host and the band feed into it too), but it has a built in 4 track poly sequencer. So there’s the temptation to try just it & the Jupiter for some stuff. It’s got a bit of a Saturday Night Fever vibe going on.

Nice one. If you need better piano sounds, there’s plenty of VST pianos you can use.

Sadly only in South Africa. It’s still very much happening in Palestine.

I try my best not to support big corporations (especially the US ones) & prefer to buy local or independent companies. I also use an app called “No Thanks” to help me avoid anything that supports apartheid. The No Thanks app is available for both iOS & Android.

Probably my fave song of 2024 & the more I listen to it, the more I love it. It just doesn’t go on for long enough. She’s a Canadian Palestinian. Her label dropped her just as she was about to release her debut album after things blew up in Palestine. Had she been a Zionist, things would have been different. The whole album is fantastic.

Here's my entry. Singer for new band did the vocals & guitar. Everything else is me. Love the original, so was good to do something different with it. https://soundcloud.com/feintmotions/linger-cover Edited to update the version of the track.

From a moral point of view, I’m not a fan of Fender. They’re now really just a corporation that buys up smaller businesses & rips them apart.

He did a lot of great stuff. Oddly enough, I didn’t even know he was still alive, until he died. 91 is a decent age to live to & he has a great legacy to leave behind.

That looks like a cool tool to have. Right, I’ve seen it now. Delete it.

Do you still play for work, or is it more just for enjoyment these days?

Listened to Nemahsis’ debut album today. 10/10! Quite possibly the best album of 2024 & it’s really an emotional & creative work.
