    this month comes a close second to june concerning mi ze ra bull. but instead, everyone's over the weather, the weather's changing anyway - all over the place as well as warming up. but the worst is the ills. i usually get sick around august, and i'm still waiting. everyone else around me is fluing and colding, and i'm on a bus with them coughing sneezing and sniffing, trying to keep my head away from eck. but i bet that by midweek i'll be like the rest of them. which will subsequently mean missing tafe-NOT the thing to do.

    just made a few tracks public http://soundcloud.com/rintoul/sets/in-your-gird-comin-up/ 

    and bloody hell i hate drawing real. tg that tafe module's over, back to drawing fake :)

    I'mma be going on holidays as of now. of to mother's for Homecooked Paradise |P''. im taking all my gear with me now i have the right type of bag to carry it in. 

    my musak making has been flat. i think those recent songs i created are somewhere in between noob and generic, or generic. and they sound like anything i'd find out in the zoo these days, yay i [think i] succeeded in getting that sound so now why do i feel uninspired? maybe it was because one thing was missing from my setup which should not have been missing at all: my kaoss pad. seriously, i connect it up before going on with another track and boom theres my creative/innovative streak back... and my enjoyment. i should leave it as it is [during And after the trip].

    and i have made a decision: go to wollongong and study at uni. if, after attending an open night etc. they send me a pack in the mail with some essentials needed for entry, the machine obviously has an alluring caring streak. Tafe never did that cttoi. ive already applied for digs and now its a case of good-biased documentation to go with my course applicatione. yay i just might get out of orange next year.

    one opportunity not to miss is the people; that young potential market of listeners, and being sociable with them. i used to think living alone like this had all the advantages but look at me, in this tiny flat alone. human contact extremely necessary which ill get in spades at uni. [providing if i live with them they keep their distance... 3 years of living in relative virtual isolation is enough to affect]

    all for now.

    Yay i actually got something productive done for tafe's tuesday lesson yesterday. the timecode on my tape was nice and fucked so i realised the week before, but i didnt realise how fucked until playback this week. so im like 'Simon get yours over here and redub it for me!:)' [i can only hope of remembering the process]. one dub and NO timecode breaks later i was away on editing for my major work, heehee. but all this asssing around means i need an extension for that OTHER assessment ive been saddled with. well? two assessments, poor knowledge of how to use and difficulty setting up a camera, people/minions/crew busy with their own shit to do [this is what i had fun avoiding for two years of music class]. mih ill get it sorted. the editing software im fine with. whats a finalcut against an abletonlive8?

  • april 15...

    I released an album http://rintoul.bandcamp.com/album/land-between-grooves yesterday, and i have a gig to play at tomorrow, all is gathering excitement as week one of tafe holidays ends and leads into two. seriously tafe holidays are the time i realise how much time im alone. its kinda scary knowing ive gone day to day for long periods without decent/proper human contact. my conscious mind - noisy, erratic, etc - is company. i cant wait for these holidays to end, or at least pick up, with easter+anzac days at the end of it.

    moving into autumn sucks. all the leaves are turning brown, mocking me lol.
