I’ve got the mastered version of my solo album Seven Tracks in Seven Days here on my desk. I just finished listening to it again. It sounds awesome in the big speakers, but it’s all crunchy in little ones. Jason from King Street and I agree that it has to go back and be re done. It’s a CD after all, and should be mastered for laptops and car stereos, not for the main room. So we’re delayed again. It’s been more than a year since I finished this album, literally in seven days, and the release date is approaching (third delay, not officially April 24th 2007) and I am feeling great about this record.

There is so much music flying around right now. I am delighted.

I am working on my edition of Mix the Vibe for King Street, afro beat loops, deepness, techno, and acapellas all swirling together to create my emotional impression of what makes me dance and soar about King Street Sounds.

I am remixing I Surrender from Seven Tracks in Seven Days again. Looking at it eight months later, and I have a lot more to say. I feel the rhythm’s shift, the bleep of the 303, and the airiness of my vocals, pushed down to baritone, and dubbed out of sight. Loving this work.

I was asked today to consider another mix CD as well. Something more minimal, and less emotional. I’m thinking it over.

The music opens, and begins to flow… I am so happy with the rhythm in my heart. You may never know what unconditional love is, or how I came to find it for you, have it in endless supply for you. But it’s true, I do. And I suppose I should be more mindful of the fact that the nicest thing you could do for me in response might not be something I actually want. I should learn to tell you no sooner, and to withhold my bursting heart a little better, and bring a friend along to protect my gentle soul, and humanity from making new mistakes. It’s ok baby, you don’t have to understand. You don’t even have to believe me. It makes no difference whatsoever.

Perhaps this is the season of leaping forward, making new errors, and learning so much more. I tell you, as long as there’s house music, I’m gonna make it.

Feel it. (Feeling it.)
