Another few to go - but here's where we are so far - the strings are a little fat - but I think we should be ready to publish by next week.

I suspect like many, my phone is now my alarm clock. Aside from the rather worrying habit of checking my email 30 seconds after I open my eyes - this does give me the facility to choose what sound I wake up to.
I spent a month with Radiohead's "No surprises" - which made me chuckle as I woke and those opening tones are a nice gentle way to come into the world, but recently I've been playing with different music2work2 themes.
I've been "living" with this for the last week and it seems to be doing the job very nicely - I'm up early with a bounce in my step after a nice calming start to the day:

One of the nice things about coming out to see Charlotte is that she has a load of old music2work2 that I haven't listened to for ages; tracks that were being developed that never got finished, me experimenting with different voices etc, etc. I had reminded myself this evening that I wanted to record the noise of the cicadas from the back porch - they are so loud and such a part of the environment that I reckoned they would work nicely as an additional voice in a music2work2 piece.
So - I fired up Audioboo to record the cicadas and just as I started to record - the Dorothy theme came on the stereo - it is a theme I wrote for Wendi's grandmother who passed away a few years back; it has parts for piano, strings, bass and guitar - and while the execution isn't great - I love the idea.
So - I ended up recording the track and book-ending it with cicadas...
Think I'll be re-visiting this one when I get back to LA
