Hi Folks, sorry I haven't posted here with my usual regularity lately, my wonderful partner is on holidays, and I am spending some valuable time with her, and also sorting out the switching over to a new server, which is now all done. I've more than quadrupled my previous download speeds, so I feel very free and liberated.
On my last post I made emphasis on my subsized studio area. In all my previous abodes, I made particular note to choose a reasonable sized room to set up a recording and composing space, So when we bought this place, my Partner and I planned to convert a large walk though garage to a soundproof studio which can be used for jamming with my friends, recording, and also doing some tuition work where needed.
Well we moved into this place now around two years ago, and due to some serious health issues (affecting both of us) and the fact that we both had quite a bit of gear to move, most of the garage is still filled with boxes and unpacked belongings....Until today.
As mentioned earlier, my partner is on a week's break, and decided that this was a great time to sort the garage out. Now most people would take holidays and want to have a break and relax and do nothing, but nope my wonderful girl wants to clean out the garage so as I can have a decent studio space. What a gal !
So.... soon, I will be moving into a larger studio area (which will be able to fit a drummer, and a few extra muso's), allowing me to have a decent setup once again. This week we will be painting walls, moving furniture, unpacking boxes, putting up my treasured velvet curtains ( which look like they came right out of a David Lynch movie ), and will start setting up my music gear in the new space, so I cannot guarantee when the next post will be, though I can guarantee that when all the shifting is done, I will be more motivated and inspired than ever, so my file server better be ready for an onslaught :) Until then, I will leave you with a song that my beautiful partner and I recorded a little while back... enjoy and Take care.
Eric.

PS. I have linked my partner's Blog called 'Mind Writer'. There isn't too much to read there at the moment, but keep an eye on it for updates.
