A FRIGGIN BLAST!!!

Tonight I got a little frustrated working on a song I am doing for the complilation CD. Autumn Blue has potential but it had just something wrong with it that I could not put a finger on.

In true form I started to work on something else. I let my frustration determine my path. I let frustration TAKE OVER what I was going to do. I finally just walked into the other room feeling well.........like there is no way I can do this. I know I have the talent but it gets lost when I hit record.

I had to give myself a pep talk. What I have been learning from my mentor Tom Hess and what I am reminded of is that if I want to suceed with anything in life I must learn mastery. If a child falls while learning to walk what do we tell them...just crawl? Because that is all they can do? F*&^ NO!!!

So anyway I jumped back on Autumn Blue. I knew deep inside the song I have is good and the mix, the sound is just way inferior. So I started with a single step. I set my section to loop and I started tweaking knobs and using some principles of mixing I have been learning.

I felt like I was in the place I belong at this point. This is some of what I was made to do. Someone told me I had a recording engineers heart. I think they are right. This is a FRIGGIN BLAST!!

And Autumn Blue is starting to sound much better!!!

I got my favorite girl, I got my guitar, God is in control and active regularly in my life, now I found this out. What else?!

Sweet,
Randy
