Getting into Wendi

Just as with life - often times you need to get warmed up before you get stuck in; I have found that in order to easily to get into Wendi, I need to get my fingers limber and my head in the right place!

I have this piece of music, based around the Wendi theme that gets me thinking in three voices and helps me transition into the main theme without thinking. Here's a clip from this morning's session before everything went to shit, you'll hear the beginning of the main theme start at 3:15...

Wendi – Transition Strings

I haven't been posting 'cos I've been playing - right now the focus is solely on getting this piece finished and everything else takes a back seat. There are still a few areas that need to be hammered but I'm as close as I've been. Finally worked out the strings for the main theme transition.

Messages from Siri...

I’m getting better at capturing ideas: there’s a waterproof notepad in the shower, one entire wall of the living room is a blackboard, and now of course we have Siri.

Being able to quickly voice record an idea and have it sent to you as a message the next day is brilliant – here are a few while I was developing this track:

"Sure easy menu bar thinking and subdivide employment labor Wolk with the glory and employer"

..I have no idea what this means...

"Stamnes Musician's offer reason files next"

...I think this has something to do with offering stems - good one - will implement later this year...

"Blog post want to want want to Paul from an astonishing the kids time I want Musicians's alarm people who couldn't stand tedious I'm looking skills to people with Nicola movile so Columbus works out to do that the skip."

...yeah, no idea about this either - but it sounds fascinating...

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha"

...and this is Siri just laughing at me...

Clearly Siri has a way to go, but it's kinda entertaining. I've off to want want to Paul...
