    The band logo

    There are several hurdles to jump when putting together a musical dynasty. The band name, the musical differences and of course who gets to sing the songs. These difficulties often take precedent over the songs themselves, leaving many a band #fail.

    Well, I’m currently dealing with all these issues internally, and being as schizophrenic as I can to make the right decisions. Another hurdle that I have struggled with is the band logo. Once you have a name, you need to decide how it will appear.

    Having created the band and the original logo years ago, I felt it was time for a change. Anyway, I was quite happy when I came up with a draft idea and knocked it up quickly in illustrator.

    So, here is a work in progress, but something that will soon be gracing the website. (please forgive the stock symbols, they will go :) ) The aspects I am most happy with are the font idea and the ruin concept.

    It is by no means finished, but it now gives me two logo ideas to play with. The other, older and more formal, is nice but I now have something new to play with.

    Music revelation

    Following on from what I mentioned yesterday about having more music on the hard drive than I thought… well I have found even more. I found a whole lot of music that I had no idea I had got so far with. While that is good it is also a little worrying that I hadn’t managed to keep track of it.

    I have now put it into a central folder, that will be regularly backed up, and I will continue to crack away on shaping them from the rough demo state they are now in, to completed tracks. I had a goal to make them available last year, that goal is still live, even if it is at a later date. Now if I can make a decision on where to store them online I’ll be fine. I need a flickr for audio… perhaps odeo, we’ll see.

    I just realised

    I have been thinking that 2008 was a bit of a let down creatively speaking. I spent far too much time planning and not enough doing. But I have just been going through my hard drive and I realised that is the home for a piles and piles of half-finished bits of music. Now I know that the music should be finished, if I want to do anything with it, but I had no idea that I had got that far with it. So, I am actually a lot happier with things at the moment as I do my littel mini-review of where I am with all my creative projects.
