Lots of updates this time. Again, I waited an extra week before posting as I was working on something extra special. The news is that I now have a bass guitar I can record with, so I had to practice hard to get live bass into this next track.

I’ve been eager to share some of my music, but I wanted to make a point of posting about it here first, for the few of you who’ve been following for awhile and still, despite the long hiatus and inconsistent content, still hang around and check out my stuff. Freshly uploaded to bandcamp yesterday, I think you’ll like this one.
Not going to say anymore, it’s been a long couple of weeks and I really want to close this file.
Check out my links :D

Not so great. The year is almost half over, and I’ve yet to change much about this place. The site’s plan isn’t much expensive annually, still, I set myself to make more use of it or get rid of it, as for the past few years I haven’t been using it much at all.
… more stuff …

The notation for it is here. You can get a hybrid-kit-MIDI mp3 version too. At 120bpm, it plays all the parts in order as per notation, then after repeating the intro it plays them in reverse order (and hey, it’s digitally quantized so guarantied not to swing!).
It’s my take on a Double-Kick note value ladder, or pyramid. I didn’t manage one complete loop-around in this clip, so it fades-out at the end, but I did reach the re-intro and even up a few rungs, so stretch-goal partly achieved! yay! I’m working it from 60 to 96bpm, you can tell I’m pushing myself a bit.
So there it is. Next for this, I hope I can share a full loop of me playing it (like the mp3 basically, and as fast ideally), tighten it way up, and really nail those transitions and feel for each part.

I haven’t posted in longer than I would have liked again, so it seems like there’d be lots to update about. Things are still improving and the situation is positively better. I’m definitively getting work done on being organized, even if overall there much cleaning up to get done. Keeping up a steady schedule is happening, and holding up for longer periods of time. Despite this important personal progress in learning harder and working smarter, the past few months haven’t been all that productive per say.

I’ve been dreading recording a video for this month again, with no painting anywhere near ready, not much else to write about otherwise, and having fleshed out an idea for Rabbit Hole part 5 already, that is however exactly what I did.

Rabbit Hole, part the 3, is what happened when I altered the Double Paradiddle rudiment, from RLRLRR to RLRRLR and LRLRRL, then orchestrated it 20+ different ways around the drum kit, playing triplets over a 4/4 (RLR-RLR-LRL-RRL).
Notations here: Rabbit Hole III.pdf and also the mp3 from a MIDI recording of those same notations.
