flora/fauna

Housekeeping. I am, as of now, going through the old songs and trying to be diligent about tightening up loose ends.. -also finishing a good number of the songs that I recorded as skeletons. This proves to be........... a lot harder than I thought it would be. Why is it so much easier to record something the day you write it?

attempt no. 1

When I started recording, way back when..
the comment I got most often was that the guitar is too loud so we cant hear the words. I managed to move out of that phase for a while but I think Im back in it again. I dunno.. when I stop paying attention, it eventually lends itself to shoegaze, and honestly I just cant get enough of that.
-not to say that Im particularly pleased with the wall of sound present in the second half of this song... I definitely envisioned it differently,
-but I could easily say the same of every song Ive ever tried recording.

note to self: how did I end up with more loose ends than when I started?
